The single effects that make up the algorithm are
called “effect modules”. The available effect
module type and sequence differs for various
algorithms (see illustration above).
An effect module consists of the “effect type”
which determines the type of sound, and the effect
parameters which determine the intensity and
operation of the effect. Effect type and effect
parameter settings for a module are stored as a
“patch”.
For each algorithm, there are 20 – 60 patches. You
can not only call up and use preprogrammed
patches, but also edit effect parameters and store the
results as your own original patches.
The number of available patches per algorithm is
shown in the table below.
H INT
The effect input/output configuration differs for
the various algorithms. There are three
configurations: mono input/stereo output,
stereo input/stereo output, and mono input x 2/
mono output x 2.
■ Send/return effect
The send/return effect can be used together by all
tracks. It serves to add reverb, delay, or chorus to
the audio tracks and drum/bass tracks. The signal
from these tracks is sent to the effect circuitry
(send) and the effect sound is mixed back in just
before the [OUTPUT] jack (return).
The intensity of the send/return effect can be
adjusted by controlling the level of the signal sent
to the effect (send level).
The send/return effect consists of the “effect type”
which determines the type of sound, and the effect
parameters which determine the intensity and
operation of the effect. These two components are
stored as a “patch”. The send/return effect can use
40 patches. In the default condition, 30 patches are
preprogrammed.
