Recording With Effects
The SP-808 allows you to record an effect and make it a permanent part of your track. This allows
you to use the effects processor for other tracks or samples. There are two different ways an effect
can be routed to record: as an insert effect or in a send/return loop. The method you should use
depends on the effect you are using. Insert should be used when you want to send your source
signal into the effects processor and record the output of the effects processor without recording
the dry signal. Some effects commonly used in an insert routing include distortion, slicer, and radio.
Use the send/return method when you want to record a mixture of the dry and effected signal.
Effects such as reverb, delay, and chorus are commonly used in a send/return fashion.
Use the following procedure to record samples to a track with an effect added to those samples.
