The current AuxToMainOuts value

The AuxToMainOuts parameter can be set to:

¥ NeverÑthe Aux and Main Outs will be discrete, even if the Left Aux Out is not connected.

¥ AlwaysÑthe Aux signal will be summed into the Main outputs, even if the Left Aux Out is

connected.

¥ AutoÑthe ZR-76 will sum any sounds sent to the Aux Outs into the Main Outs if thereÕs no cable

plugged into the Left Aux Out jack.

5. Use the Value knob to set AuxToMainOuts to Never when you need to use the Aux Outs as a discrete

stereo feed, or to Always when using the Main Outs only.

ZR-76 sounds that use an insert effect are also assigned an alternate effect bus routing for situations in

which the desired insert effect is unavailable. This would include times when youÕre already committed

to using some other insert effect in a SoundFinder preset or a 16 Track Recorder sequence. For sounds

that depend on an insert effect, the alternate effect bus, or Alt. FX Bus, provides a sensible Òsecond-

bestÓ choice for those situations. The Alt. FX Bus setting for sounds that use an insert effect can be

edited using the supplied Unisyn sound editing editing software.

Not all sounds use an insert effect. Each sound can be assigned instead to the global chorus, global

reverb, or left dry, according to the setting of its FX Bus parameter. This parameter is accessed by

pressing the Routing button in the FX/Mixdown section of the ZRÕs front panel. When you set a soundÕs

FX Bus parameter to Chorus, LightReverb, MediumReverb, WetReverb or Dry, and save the sound, youÕve

also set its Alt. FX Bus to the same value. The Alt. FX Bus for each sound can be directly accessed using

your Unisyn software.

For more on how the ZRÕs effects work, see Chapter 8.

There may be times when you donÕt want this pre-programmed effect routing to be used. The ZR-76

provides the AutoSelect FXBus parameter for enabling or disabling the use of each soundÕs Alt. FX Bus
