Using external effects As an alternative to using the internal effects, you can use an external effect processor connected to the STEREO/ AUX OUT jacks. As an example, here's how you can use AUX bus 1 to apply a mono-in stereo-out reverb to the track channels during mixdown. 1 Lower the [STEREO] fader to the -∞ position. 2 In the Selected Channel section, repeatedly press the [PAN/BAL] knob or hold down the [PAN/BAL] knob and use the CURSOR [ ]/ [ ] keys to access the AUX OUT page of the PAN screen. In this page you can select one of the following as the signal that will be output from the STEREO/AUX OUT jacks. STEREO Stereo bus (default) AUX 1/2 AUX bus 1/2 3 Move the cursor to the AUX 1/2 button and press the [ENTER] key. The AUX bus 1 signal will be output from the L channel of the STEREO/AUX OUT jacks, and the AUX bus 2 signal will be output from the R channel of the STEREO/AUX OUT jacks. 4 As shown in the following diagram, connect your external effect processor to the AW16G.
