▪
The INPUT knob adjusts the level of the input signal going into the effect.
▪
The ATTACK knob adjusts the level of the attack of the signal.
▪
The SUSTAIN knob adjusts how long the sound will ring out, which can effectively
sound like changing the dampening or the size of the various drums, or even changing
the size of the room that the drums are in.
▪
The OUTPUT knob on the right side adjusts the overall output level.
3.2.5 Channel Settings
Each channel has its own settings for effect routing and channel output routing, and each
mic channel can also be unloaded from memory if not in use.

▪
In the FX ROUTING area, there are four different effect routing presets to choose from.
These change the order of which effect comes before the other, depending on your
preference in a mix (for example, some engineers prefer to use EQ before compres
sion, while others prefer to use it after compression). The signal chain of the effects
goes from left to right according to the image, and you can step through the different
order presets using the right and left arrows.
▪
The CHANNEL area gives an OUTPUT drop-down menu to select which output that channel
will be routed to. Please note that the channel outputs must first be setup in KON
TAKT before being able to route them here. To unload a channel that is currently not
in use from your computer's memory, select it from the drop-down menu (represented
by a memory chip icon) in the top-right corner of the
CHANNEL
area. You can always
load that channel back at any time.
