Chapter 13: Using the Effects
Inserting effects to input signals while recording
You may apply the DPS16’s effects to the specified INPUT MIX channel or TRACK MIX channel signals. This
technique is useful, for example, when you wish to apply compressor to the bass during recording, or apply exciter
only to the vocal track during mixdown. This section describes how to apply the FX1’s compressor to the INPUT
1 signal during recording.
1. Move the cursor to FX 1 on the Effect screen and select the compressor effect. (See page 145.)
2. Press the [F2] (CHANNEL) key in Mixer mode and recall the Channel View page.
3. Use the [INPUT SELECT] 1 key to select Input 1.
4. Move the cursor to the left of the knob displayed in the Send 1 field, and select “INS” (insert).
The FX1 effect is inserted into the signal input at INPUT 1. (The effect return signal from FX1 is sent to track
1 or INPUT MIX channel 1, depending on the setting in Quick Patch mode.)
INPUT TRIM
FX 1
to Track 1 or
THRU MIX cahnnel
5. Move the cursor to the right side of the knob indicated in the Send 1 field and adjust the level of
signal sent to FX1. Usually, set the level to the maximum (127).
TIP :
With some effects, the result may vary depending on the input level. If you are using such an effect
on multiple channels, change the SEND level to adjust the level of the signal input to the effect.
6. Assign Input 1 to track 1 in Quick Patch mode, then press [RECORD SELECT] key 1 in Main mode to
arm track 1 for recording.
7. While playing the sound source connected to the INPUT connector, adjust the effect parameters, if
necessary.
8. When you are ready, start recording on the DPS16.
NOTES :
If you set an effect to “INS ”, you will not be able to use it for other inputs, TRACK MIX channels, or
AUX sends.
The signal output from the inserted effect is always mono. If you have selected a stereo-out effect, route
the L-channel output signal for Inputs 1, 3, 5, 7, and digital L channel, and route the R-channel output
signal for Inputs 2, 4, 6, 8, and digital R channel.
