Effects 150
13. Play the pad.
The effected sound will play from the [STEREO OUT].
Tip: You can apply the effect to several pads. The effect of the FX 1 is applied to all the pads whose FX SEND are set to
1 in the FX SEND page of the MIXER mode.
Tip: You can adjust the send level column to adjust the amount of the reverb for each pad.
Tip: You can edit the effects in detail. For more information about detailed editing of each effect, see the 'Editing
Effects' section on page 151.
Like FX 1, you can use the effects of the FX 2-4 by setting the 'FX' column to the desired buss and adjusting the Send
Level in the SEND column.
Buss Effects vs. Insert Effects
Some effects, such as reverbs and delays, are best used as a buss
effect, controlling the amount of signal individual sounds are sent.
This allows for different sources to use the same effect with different
send levels.
See the signal flow diagram on the right for an example of a buss
effect
Some effects work best when 100% of the signal is sent to the effect,
without mixing any dry signal. These are called Insert effects, and
they include compressors, limiters, filters, Autopan effects and
parametric EQs.
See the signal flow diagram on the right for an example of an insert
effect
Setting an Effect as an Insert
Here, we will show how to set an effect buss as an insert. In this
example, we will set an Autopan to FX2.
01. Press the [MODE] and [PAD 11] (EFFECTS), then Press the [F1]
(BUS1-2) button.
02. Select the first effect block of FX2.
03. Press the [WINDOW] button or turn the [DATA] wheel.
This will display the EFFECT EDIT window.
04. In the 'FX 2 Block 1' field, scroll with the [DATA] wheel to
choose AUTOPAN and press [F5] (SELECT).
This brings you back to the EFFECT EDIT window.
05. Press [F4] (CLOSE) to exit the EFFECT EDIT window.
06. Select the 'DIRECT' field.
The following selections are available
ON
The dry signal of the source is sent to the output along with the effect
OFF
The dry signal is not sent to the output. 100% of the source is sent to the effect.
For our example, set this field to OFF.
07. Press [F6] (GO2MIX)
This is a shortcut to take you into MIXER mode. You can also get to MIXER mode by Pressing the [MODE] and [PAD 8] (MIXER).

The PAD MIX page will be displayed.
09. Hit the desired pad.
This pad will be selected and its display will be highlighted.
