The Effects section (GS/XG only)
The third section is not shown at all in GM mode. It contains the following global
settings for the reverb and chorus effects that are included in all GS/XG instruments:
When are the settings in the GM/GS/XG Editor applied?
Unlike settings in the Inspector, which are sent out at the beginning of each Part,
the settings in the GM/GS/XG Editor are sent as MIDI messages to your instru-
ments on two occasions:
• When a Song is opened.
If GM, GS or XG is activated in a Song, all the settings in the Editor are sent
out when you open the Song.
• When you make the actual settings.
This makes it possible to use the GM/GS/XG Editor as a regular “hands-on”
mixer.
● Please note that the settings in the GM/GS/XG Editor are in no way connected
to the settings in the Inspector. Making volume settings in both Editor and In-
spector, for example, may lead to some confusion. You are probably better off
using one or the other.

pletely.

Chorus pop-up Lets you select one of eight chorus- and related effect types. The
