10.1 Effects Overview
Tracker has 8 voices which would represent each of the tracks playback.
The common processing of the voices comes together at the master stage
where the voices are mixed and the master effects applied. Also the Delay
and Reverb ‘send’ audio is mixed into the main out.
The diagram shown is for illustration purposes and does not constitute an
exact or ofcial schematic of Polyend’s Tracker circuitry. It does however
serve to give an insight into the signal path and identify the six master
effects covered in this section.
The reverb and delay send effects can be sent pre-fader or post-fader in the
global mixer. This is set in the ‘Cong’ settings. This means the effect is sent
before the volume fader or after the volume fader adjustment.
10.2 Master Pages
The 6 master effects are located in the master section of Tracker. This is
accessible with the [Master] dedicated button which opens to 3 mixer /
master pages. The main effects settings are contained within this pages.
To adjust effect parameters, select the page then use the screen buttons or
use [Left] or [Right] to select the parameter. Screen buttons select pages
such as delay, reverb etc. Turn (Jog) or Press [Up] or [Down] to change the
selected parameter value. Multiple track mixer levels can be adjusted when
holding the screen buttons simultaneously.
