Applying effects during mixdown
Applying an effect such as reverb to each track during a mixdown is an example of a situation
in which you would connect the external effect processor to the AUX SEND jack. In this case,
you can use the AUX control of each input channel to adjust the effect depth for each track.
1
Connect the AUX SEND 1 jack to the input
jack of your effect processor, and connect the
output jacks of the effect processor to LINE
INPUT jacks 5 and 6. Make settings on the
effect processor so that its output jacks will
output only the effect sound.
2
Prepare for mixdown.
As described in “Mixdown” (page 32), adjust the
mix balance of each track, and perform the steps
leading up to mixdown (steps
1
6
).
3
Press the PLAY button to playback the song,
and for each input channel to which you wish
to apply the effect, rotate the AUX control
toward the “1” position.
The signals from input channels 1–4 (the playback
of tracks 1–4) will be sent to the external effect
processor connected to the AUX SEND 1 jack.
Adjust the input level of the effect processor if nec-
essary.
4
Raise level control 5/6.
The effect sound processed by the external effect
processor will be mixed into the ST bus. Raising
the level control will increase the overall effect.
5
When you are finished adjusting the effect
depth, press the SONG SEARCH [
] button
to locate to the beginning of the song, and
begin the mixdown.
