programs are using IFX1, this function lets you reassign the bus
send for each key of the drum kit, changing them from IFX1–
IFX4 to IFX2–IFX5. (In the example described here, snare sounds
would then sent to IFX2 and kick sounds to IFX3.)
Patching is possible only if the Bus setting of each key of the
drum kit is assigned to an insert effect. The state of these settings
can also be viewed in the Routing map. Choose “DKit IFX Patch,”
and then press the OK button to confirm.
If you want to revert to the original settings of the drum kit, use
the Drum Kit IFX Patch with the settings IFX1 → IFX1, IFX2 →
IFX2, IFX3 → IFX3, IFX4 → IFX4, and IFX5 → IFX5.
In the following diagram, Drum Program is assigned to Timbre 1,
and normal Programs are assigned to Timbres 2 and 3. “Bus” is set
to DKit for Timbre 1, IFX1 for Timbre 2, and IFX2 for Timbre 3.
With Timbre 1, the “Bus” for DrumKit setting becomes effective.
Use the “DKit IFX Patch” parameter if you want the drum
program to use effects other than timbres 2 and 3. Temporarily
send the drum kit IFX1 to IFX3, IFX2 to IFX4, IFX3 to IFX5 and
IFX4 to L/R.
Executing with these settings will temporarily change the effects
where the drum kit is being sent.

In Program, Combination, and Sequencer modes, the insert effect
pages (IFX1–IFX5) allow you to specify the “Pan (CC#8),” bus
select “Bus,” FX Control bus “FX Ctrl,” and master effect send
levels “Send 1” and “Send 2” for the signal that has passed
through the insert effect.
If you have turned on the “Chain” to connect the Insert Effects in
series, these parameters Pan(CC#8)– Send2 for the post-IFX (last
Insert Effect in the chain) signal become effective.
Pan (CC#8)
This pan setting functions in stereo. You can adjust the stereo
position of the output signal while preserving the stereo position
specified by the Pan parameters of the program, timbre, or track,
and by the stereo position and spread produced by IFX. (See the
illustration below)
Note: If the IFX input or output is monaural, the sound may be
positioned in the middle regardless of the settings of the program,
timbre, or track. (see “In/Out” on page 210)
You can control these parameters via CC#8.
Bus (Bus Select)
This parameter enables you to specify the destination bus for the
post-IFX signals.
L/R is a common setting to send signals to the Master Effect
(MFX) before they are routed to the OUTPUT L/MONO and R
outputs.
If set to Off, the signal will not be sent to the L/R bus. Choose this
setting if you want to use the “Send1” or “Send2” levels to route
the signal through a master effect in series (i.e., not as a send
effect).
FX Ctrl (FX Control Bus)
This specifies the FX Control bus that follows the insert effect.
The FX Control buses (FX Control 1, 2) are mono two-channel
buses.
The KROSS provides two (mono two-channel) effect control
buses, giving you a wide range of ways to control effects.
FX Control buses can be used with vocoder, limiter, and gate-type
effects.
For details on the effects that be used with FX Control buses, see
“FX Control Bus” on page 209
Send1, Send2
These specify the send levels where the signals from the insert
effects are sent directly to master effects 1 and 2. Signals are sent
in stereo to master effects 1 and 2. If you've used the chain
function to connect an insert effect to another IFX, you can't send
its signal to a master effect.
Here's how to apply a master effect to sound that's not using an
insert effect:
• In Program mode, the P–FX ROUTING SEND page “OSC1
Send 1,” OSC1 Send 2,” “OSC2 Send 1” and “OSC2 Send 2”
settings will specify the send levels to the master effects.
