From the 300’s Control mode, there are two input format selections available
when running Cascade programs: Analog or Digtial.
lf Analog is selected as the
main input type, then the Digital Input can be used as a patch point- either Pre-
Machine A, Mid A-B, or Post Machine B. As in the othersetups, there are Input
level and source Balance Controls. Cascade setups, however, have three mix
controls. AMIX proportions the dry signal to A’s wet signal. BMIX proportions
the resulting A output with
Machine B’s output. OMIX takes the resulting A+B
mix and blends(mixes) itwith thedrysignaiwhichispickedoff before EFFECTA.
Cascade setups also include an overall feedback control which routes the B
output back to Machine A’s input. Be careful!! This parameter can wipe out
tweeters, woofers and ears if used too liberally.
If the sum of the feedback parameters in EFFECT A, EFFECT B and the
above-mentioned overall Feedback parameter is greater than iOO%,
runaway feedback will occur.
For example, assume Machine A is running a Dual delay effect with Delay1
Feedback setto40% and Delay3 Feedback setto 40%. Machine B is running
a Mono Shift program with the feedback parameter set to 40%. The total
amount of feedback in the system is 60%. So far, so good.... that is until you
add more than 20% Cascade Feedback. BE CAREFUL!!!!
CASCADE Setups offer an amazing number of effect combinations: Chambers
into Delays, Pitch Shifts into Chambers, Flanges into Delays, Reverbs into
Compressor, etc. You experiment, name, and store new combinations into User
SetUp Registers. Remember, Input levels, Source Balances, Mix Balances,
Feedback amounts, LFO type, and, of course, the two effects are part of the
storable Setup.
