In Performance mode or Patch mode, select “M” in the Effect
Routing screen to access the Mastering Effect screen.
It has independent high, mid, and low ranges. Independently
for the high-frequency, mid-frequency, and low-frequency
regions, this compresses any sounds that exceed the specified
level, making the volume more consistent.
When you procedure your own original audio CD, this lets
you master at an optimized level.
Mastering effect settings apply to the entire SonicCell. These
settings are not for individual patches or performances.
