If you wish to connect IFX in series, make Chain (PROG
7.21a) settings. If you set Chain of IFX1 to , the output
of IFX1 will be sent to the input of IFX2. When effects are
connected in series, the Pan (CC#8), BUS Select, S1
(Send 1 (MFX1)), and S2 (Send 2 (MFX2)) following the
last IFX will be used (
3. Mixer).
In the example shown in the following illustration, the out-
put of oscillator 1 and 2 is sent to IFX1. By setting all
Chain settings to , IFX1IFX2IFX3IFX4IFX5 are
connected in series. The Pan (CC#8), BUS Select, S1
(Send 1 (MFX1)), and S2 (Send 2 (MFX2)) settings follow-
ing the IFX5 will be used.
Settings for drum programs
If you have selected Drums for Oscillator Mode (PROG
2.11a) of a Program, the Use DKit Setting box (PROG 7.1
1b) becomes available. If you check this box, BUS Select
(GLOBAL 5.13a) for each key of the selected DrumKit
becomes effective. For example, you can send a snare sound
to IFX1 to apply the Gate effect, a kick sound to IFX2 to
apply EQ, and other sounds to AUDIO OUTPUT (MAIN)
L/MONO and R without applying any Insert Effects. If you
de-select the box, all drum instrument outputs are sent to
the bus specied by BUS Select (PROG 7.21a). You may
apply any Insert Effects to all drum instruments, regardless
of the DrumKit settings.
22. Combination, Sequencer, and Song Play mode
Use BUS Select (COMBI 7.11a, SEQ 7.11(2a), S.PLAY 7.1
(2a)) for timbres (Combination) and tracks (Sequencer, Song
Play) to select an Insert Effect to apply to the corresponding
timbres and tracks. You can route multiple timbres and
tracks to a single Insert Effect.
As with Program mode, select L/R, IFX1–5, 1, 2, 1/2, or Off
for each timbre and track.
S1 (Send1(MFX1)), S2 (Send2(MFX2)) become available
if BUS Select has been set to L/R or Off.
If IFX1–5 is selected, use S1 (Send1(MFX1)) and S2
(Send2(MFX2)) for the post-IFX signal (
3. Mixer).
Send level 1 is controlled by MIDI control change
CC#93, and send level 2 by MIDI control change CC#91.
At this time, the actual send level will be the send level
1 or 2 of the program oscillator used by the timbre/
track multiplied by the send level 1 or 2 that is set via
MIDI. (Send Level
p.162)
The following gure shows an example of Combination
mode. The Timbre 1 output is sent to IFX1 and the Timbre 2
output is sent to IFX2 according to the BUS Select setting.
Other timbres are sent to L/R. The output signal passes
through the Master EQ, then goes to AUDIO OUTPUT
(MAIN) L/MONO and R. It is not routed to the Insert
Effects.
The following illustration shows the IFX1 Chain set to
so that the output of IFX1 will be sent to IFX2.
IFX1: 001:St.Amp Sim and IFX2: 020: St.Flanger are
inserted to Timbre 1. IFX2:020: St.Flanger is inserted to
Timbre 2. The gure above (Routing page) shows these set-
tings. (In this example, IFX 3, 4, and 5 are not being used.)
Settings for drum Programs
If a drum Program (OSC Mode Drums) is selected for tim-
bres in Combination mode and for tracks in Sequencer
mode and Song Play mode, you can select DKit for BUS
Select. If you select DKit, the BUS Select (GLOBAL 5.1
3a) settings for each key become effective, and each drum
instrument sound will be routed to the corresponding buses
(e.g.: the snare sound is sent to IFX1, kick sound to IFX2, and
other sounds to L/MON and R). If you select anything other
than DKit, you may apply any Insert Effects to all drum
instruments, regardless of the DrumKit settings.
If BUS Select is set to DKit, you will be able to select the
Utility DKit IFX Patch. This temporarily patches the BUS
Select settings for each key to temporarily change the con-
nections to the insert effects. For example, if you have made
settings for the keys of the drum kit so that snare-type
sounds are sent to IFX1 and kick-type sounds are sent to
IFX2, but IFX 1 and 2 are being used by other timbre/track
programs, you can change the bus send destinations from
IFX1 to IFX3 and from IFX2 to IFX4 for each key of the drum
kit. (In this case, the snare sounds will be sent to IFX3 and
the kick sounds will be sent to IFX4.) Patching is possible
only for drum kit keys whose BUS Select has been set to
IFX1–5. The setting status can also be veried in the Routing
page. After setting DKit IFX Patch, press the [F8] (OK)
key to execute. To return to the original settings of the drum
kit, select IFX1IFX1, IFX2IFX2, IFX3IFX3, IFX4IFX4,
IFX5IFX5.
In the following example, Drum Program is assigned to
Timbre 1, and normal Programs are assigned to Timbres 2
and 3. BUS Select is set to DKit for Timbre 1, IFX1 for Tim-
bre 2, and IFX2 for Timbre 3. With Timbre 1, the BUS
Select (GLOBAL 5.13a) for DrumKit setting becomes
effective.
