Using the BOSS Insert FX For Recording
In the JUNO-Gi, you can record
• audio coming into the JUNO-Gi—from a mic or instrument connected
to the rear-panel GUITAR/MIC jack, or from an instrument or device
connected to the rear-panel left and right LINE jacks.
• the JUNO-Gi’s own live sets—as you play them from the JUNO-Gi
keyboard.
You can use the BOSS Insert FX on both of these audio signal types, though
you set them up a little differently.
You can use the BOSS Insert FX on both signals at the same time since
the incoming and keyboard audio travel together on an input bus to a
recorder track, and the BOSS Insert FX processes the entire bus.
A bus is a pathway down which one or more signals can travel to a
common destination, such as a digital recorder track.
Processing Incoming Audio with the BOSS Insert FX
If you want to apply the BOSS Insert FX to your incoming audio only—
and not to the JUNO-Gi’s live sets at the same time—make sure the
KEYBOARD button in the REC SOURCE SELECT area isn’t lit. If it is,
press it a few times until it’s not.
1 In the digital recorder’s REC SOURCE SELECT area, press the AUDIO
INPUT button to light it and display the AUDIO INPUT SELECT screen.
On this screen, you can select the audio input you want to record—or
just hear if you’re performing. Select the desired input by pressing
the number button beneath it.
• TRACK 1–8—With this setting, the BOSS Insert FX is applied only
to the selected track. Use this when you’re bouncing or mixing.
• TRACKS 1/2–7/8— With this setting, the BOSS Insert FX is applied
exclusively to the selected stereo pair of tracks. This is also for
bouncing and mixing.
• RHYTHM—Use this setting to run the digital recorder’s rhythm
track through the BOSS Insert FX when you’re mixing.
• MASTER—This setting causes the BOSS Insert FX to process the
song’s entire stereo mix when you’re bouncing or mixing.
4 Press EXIT when you’re done to exit the INSERT FX LOCATION screen.
Turning Effect Processors On and Off
The JUNO-Gi provides a quick way to turn off the BOSS Insert FX and reverb.
This is particularly helpful when you’re hearing something that sounds
wrong and want to troubleshoot it by listening carefully to your incoming
audio or recorded tracks without effects.
1 If it’s not already visible, press RECORDER VIEW once or twice to
display the RECORDER screen.
2 Press 6 (EFFECT) to display the INSERT FX screen.
3 Press 6 (SWITCH) to display the RECORDER EFFECT SWITCH window.
4 Press
• 1 (INSFX)—to toggle the BOSS Insert FX on and off.
• 2 (REVERB)—to toggle the reverb on and off.
5 Press EXIT when you’re done to close the RECORDER EFFECT SWITCH
window.
