Send/Return Effects
Send/return effects work in the following way:
1. A pad, keygroup, audio track, program, or submix sends its audio to a return at a designated send level.
2. That audio is processed by the effects on the return. Each return can have up to four insert effects loaded and
activated.
3. The processed audio is sent to a pair of main outputs (stereo) or a single main output (mono).
You can load send/return effects and set return levels only in the Channel Mixer, described below. The rest of this
section describes the different ways to set the desired send levels for pads, keygroups, programs, or submixes.
To load a send/return effect to a return:
1. In the Channel Mixer, use the Mixer field in the upper-left corner to select Returns.
2. In the touchscreen, tap the pad that corresponds to the desired return. Alternatively, double-tap the Return field
below the Mixer field.
3. Tap the area under Inserts, and then use the screen that appears to load or edit effects. Alternatively, tap the Insert
tab at the bottom of the screen (tap it multiple times to select a different insert slot), and then double-tap the desired
pad on the screen. You could also use the data dial or –/+ buttons to select an effect immediately.
To set the return level:
1. In the Channel Mixer, use the Mixer field in the upper-left corner to select Returns.
2. Tap the Level tab in the lower-left corner.
3. In the touchscreen, tap the pad that corresponds to the desired return. Alternatively, double-tap the Return field
below the Mixer field.
4. To adjust the level of the currently selected return, use the data dial or –/+ buttons. Alternatively, use the
level slider in the channel strip, or turn the corresponding Q-Link knob. To make finer adjustments, double-
tap the pad on the screen and adjust the larger version of the slider that appears.
