Effect settings for a
combination or song
InCombinationandSequencermodes,youcanspecify
howeachtimbreortrackisroutedtotheinserteffects,
mastereffects,andtotaleffects.Theprocedurefor
adjustingsettingsissimilarineachmode.Here,we’ll
explaintheprocedureforCombinationmode.

We’llexplainhowtosendtheoutputoftimbre1to
inserteffect1,andthenmakesettingsforinserteffect1.
1. InCOMBIEDIT:Timbres‐Timbre01,set“Bus”

specifythesendlevelstothemastereffects.
Thissettingisavailableonlyif“Bus”issettoL/Ror

youraisethesendlevelsettinghere.
If“Bus”issettoIFX1–IFX5,the“Send1”and
“Send2”(IFX1–IFX5)settingsfollowingtheinsert
