(refer to "SEND: M-FX SW" (p. 112))
There are a number of places where settings can be made that
affect the M-FX level and related switches. If the effect does
not work with the above settings, check whether:
- If the M-FX OUTPUT LEVEL setting is low (P. 48 -
P. 61), the sound of the patch/rhythm set to which
M-FX is applied will not be heard.
- The effect is not applied when the GRAB switch is
positioned at OFF if the MC-307 has been set to use
the GRAB switch (P. 34). To always make the
effect take effect, put the GRAB switch at ON.
- Confirm that the “DELAY Volume for Each Part”
in the next item is not set too low.
