ESI ESI2000 - Routing Effects Processors; Series Effect Routing (B into A)

Appendix 231
HF Damping
High frequency energy tends to fade away first as a sound is dissipated
in a room. This parameter allows you adjust the amount of high fre-
quency damping and thus change the characteristics of the room. Rooms
with smooth, hard surfaces are more reflective and have less high
frequency damping. Rooms filled with sound absorbing materials such
as curtains or people have more high frequency damping.

Effect B Into Effect A
The output of effects processor B can be routed into effects processor A.
This connects the effects in series instead of their normal parallel con-
figuration. Two effects connected in a series sound very different than
the same two effects in parallel. For example, a chorus patched through
reverb can turn a bland string section into a lush wall of sound. The
B➟A amount can also be controlled for even more flexibility.
þ To Send the Output of Effect B through Effect A:
In this example, 100% of Effect B will be sent into Effect A.
1. Press the Preset Definition key. The LED illuminates and the
Master screen appears.
2. Select the Effects submenu (4). The Effects menu will appear.
3. Select Master Effects A (0).
