8 EUROPOWER PMP2000 User Manual 3. Effects Processor 24-Bit Multi-Effects Processor This built-in effects module produces high-grade standard effects such as reverb, chorus, flanger, delay and various combination effects. The integrated effects module has the advantage of requiring no wiring. This way, the danger of creating ground loops or uneven signal levels is eliminated at the outset, completely simplifying the handling. These effect presets are designed to be added to dry signals. If you move the FX TO MAIN/MON control, you mix the channel signal (dry) and the effect signal. ◊ Turn down the FX controls in those channel strips whose signals you don't wish to process. 4.
