Chapter 13: Using the Effects

2. Press the [F6] key to select the effect you wish to control.

If you select “ EFFECT” as the QLMC mode, pressing the [F6] key repeatedly

will select the internal effects (FX1–FX4) in order.

The effect parameters displayed on the screen vary depending on the currently-

selected internal effect.

3. Operate the Q-Link knobs ([C1]–[C6] knob) to adjust the effect parameters.

Using effects for mixdown

This section explains the basic operation for applying the FX1 effect (reverb) to the TRACK MIX channel signals

via AUX sends and returns. This technique is useful when you wish to apply effects to the playback signals of

multiple channels during mixdown.

1. In the Effect screen, move the cursor to FX1 and select the desired reverb effect. (See page 145.)

➸

NOTE :

If you apply some effects, such as reverb and delay, via an AUX send, the return signal (signal

output from the effect) is sent to the MASTER bus and mixed with the dry sound (signal from the MIX

channels). In this case, you must set the effect parameters so that the return signal will be 100% effect

signal. As the default setting, all internal reverb and delay effects are set to output only the effect sound.

2. Press the [F2](CHANNEL) key in Mixer mode to recall the Channel View page.

3. Use the [TRACK SELECT] key to select a TRACK MIX channel to which you wish to apply an effect.

4. Move the cursor to the left of the knob displayed in the Send 1 field, and specify whether you wish to

send pre-fader signal ( PRE) or post-fader signal ( POST) to AUX bus 1.

✐

TIP :

Usually, select the post fader setting for the effect sound, such as reverb and delay, that is added to

the original dry sound.

You can set the amount of the effect regardless of the fader setting on the channels for which you selected

“PRE ”. For example, if you lower the fader setting (Level parameter) to the minimum in order to output

only the reverb sound to the bus, select “PRE ” for that channel.
