Basic Effects Mode
Terminology
FXMods
FXMods give you real-time control over many of the parameters within a studio. Parameters on
any of the pages of the Studio Editor can be controlled by MIDI commandsÑsuch as physical
controller input or sequencer dataÑor by internal K2600 functions like LFOs, envelopes, clocks,
or key states. FXMods are not part a studio or FX preset; theyÕre part of a program or setup.
A program or setup can have up to 18 FXMods, as well as two dedicated LFOs, ASRs, and FUNs
for further effects control. The FXMods and the LFOs, ASRs, and FUNs are deÞned on seven
FX pages in the Program and Setup Editors.
Bus Overrides (or BusMods)
Bus overrides allow parameters within an FX preset to be controlled on the FXBus Editor page
in the Studio Editor, outside the FX Preset Editor page. Any two parameters in an FX preset can
be brought out to its FXBus page. Bus overrides are stored as part of the studio, not as part of the
FX preset. They are useful when an existing FX preset is close to what you want, so that you can
tweak it without having to create a new FX preset.
FX Mode
The effects mode is determined by the value of the FX Mode parameter, which is found on the
Effects-mode page. It determines how the K2600 selects studios when you change programs or
setups, and determines whether you have real-time control over studio parametersÑin other
words, whether FXMods are active.
If the value of FX Mode is Program or Auto, then as you change programs in Program mode, the
K2600 also loads the studio linked with that program. This activates all the FXMods deÞned
within the program.
If the value of FX Mode is Setup or Auto, then as you change setups in Setup mode, the K2600
also loads the studio linked with that setup. This activates all the FXMods deÞned within the
setup.
If the value of FX Mode is Auto, and the value of FX Channel is Current, then when youÕre in
Program, Setup, Quick Access, or Song mode, programs, setups and songs automatically use
their corresponding studios. In Program, Setup, and Quick Access modes, the studio
corresponds to the current program or setup. In Song mode, the studio corresponds to the
program on the songÕs assigned effects channel (which is determined by the value of the
EffectChan parameter on the COMMON page in the Song Editor).
If the value of FX Mode is Master, changing programs or setups does not load an associated
studio; the current studio is deÞned by the Studio parameter on the Effects-mode page. Any
FXMods deÞned in the current program or setup are inactive.
Studio Editor
To get to the Studio Editor, go to the Effects-mode page, highlight the current studio, and press
Edit. The Studio Editor contains the following pages:
The INPUT page, where signals coming from the K2600Õs four stereo output buses are routed to
one or more FXBuses.
The FXBUS page, for assigning FX presets to the four FXBuses, and for deÞning bus overrides.
The AUXFX page, for assigning an FX preset to the Aux Bus, and for deÞning bus overrides.
