MULTI CHAIN
The Multi Chain configurations provide two or three stereo effects, which are
connected in series: one feeding the next in the chain. These configurations are
identified by a “>” symbol in their name, for example
CHRS > RM (Chorus->Room).
These individual effect types provide excellent sound quality but are less processor-
intensive than their Single configuration equivalents, since the Digital Signal
Processor is accommodating more than one effect at a time. In other words, the
reverb effect in the “Delay → Room” configuration is not as “dense” as the Single
configuration called “Room Reverb”.
Effects that use this configuration:
Lezlie → Room Delay → Room Room → Delay
Chorus → Room Room
→ Flange
Effects that use this configuration:
MULTI 3 (Flange>Delay>Room)
In the case of Multi Chain configurations, the MIX parameter of each effect
determines what the following effect receives at its input(s). For example, it is
possible to use the “Delay → Room” configuration (where Effect 1 is a mono delay
and Effect 2 is a reverb), and have only the dry, undelayed signal going to the reverb.
This is done by setting the first effect’s
MIX parameter to 0.00. This means that the
previous effect chain is bypassed and all the signal is coming directly from the effects
SEND control. A setting of 100.00 (full up) means that the input comes entirely from
the previous effect block—in this case, that the entire signal to the reverb is delayed.
