6 - TASCAM effects The general effects provided within the DM-24 as described in "Internal Effects on the DM-24" on page 3 may be used either as in-line inserted effects, or as part of an effect loop, using aux send and returns. Common parameters There are three parameters on the top row of the screen for all of these effects, using PODs 2, 3 and 4. INPUT stands for input level. The input level of the signal fed to the effect is adjusted using this control. MIX is the wet/dry balance of the output. When set to 0%, the output signal is composed totally of the original signal, and at 100%, it is completely the effect signal. There are no hard and fast rules as to how these effects can be used, but on the whole, any effect where there is a wet/dry level is suitable for use within effect loops, and the others are suitable for use as insert processors. NOTE There is a slight unavoidable processing delay on some effects. If you are using the effect as an insert, you should probably keep this setting at 100%. OUTPUT The output level from the effect can be adjusted from Off, and then (in 5 dB steps): from -140 dB to -60 dB, (in 1 dB steps) from -60 dB to -20 dB and (in 0.1 dB steps) from -20 dB to 0 dB. Effect parameters The different parameters for use within these effects are as follows: Chorus Rate 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz (91 steps) De-esser Delay Distortion Threshold level -40 dB to -1 dB (40 steps) Delay Time 0.05 ms to 650 ms (651 steps) Drive Ratio 0 to 42 (43 steps) Exciter Flanger Sense 0 to 42 (43 steps) Rate 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz (91 steps) Ratio Guitar Compressor 0 to 42 (43 steps) Steps Phaser 1 to 16 (16 steps) Semitone shift Pitch -12 to +12 (25 steps) Depth Pre- delay Feedback Wet Mix Level Dry level 0% to 100% (101 steps) 0.05 ms to 500 ms (101 steps) 0% to 90% (91 steps) -40 dB to -0 B -40 dB to +20 dB (41 steps) (61 steps) Knee shape Center Frequency Output level Bypass 0.50 to 1.00 (11 steps) 1.0 kHz to 10 kHz -40 dB to _20 dB On/off (91 steps) (61 steps) Feedback Time Feedback Level Feedback Type Wet Mix Level Output level 0.05 ms to 650 ms (651 steps) 0% to 90% (91 steps) Stereo/ Ping-pong/ Multi-tap -40 dB to -0 B -40 dB to +20 dB (41 steps) (61 steps) Drive Boost EQ Pattern Output level x 1 to x32 (32 steps) Overdrive 1/2, Distortion 1/2, Amp 1/2 -40 dB to +20 dB (61 steps) Frequency Output level Bypass 1.0 kHz to 10 kHz -40 dB to +20 dB On/off (91 steps) (61 steps) Depth Resonance Delay Wet Mix Level Dry level 0% to 100% (101 steps) 0.00 to 1.00 (91 steps) 0.05 ms to 500 ms (101 steps) -40 dB to -0 B -40 dB to +20 dB (41 steps) (61 steps) Attack Output level Bypass 0.1 ms to 5.0 ms -40 dB to +20 dB On/off (50 steps) (61 steps) LFO Rate LFO Depth Resonance Output level Bypass 0.1 Hz to 10 Hz 0% to 100% (99 steps) (101 steps) 0% to 100% (101 steps) -18 dB to +12 dB On/off (31 steps) Pitch Fine Pre- Delay Feedback Wet Mix Level Dry level -50 to +50 (101 steps) 0.05 ms to 500 ms (91 steps) 0% to 90% (91 steps) -40 dB to -0 B -40 dB to +20 dB (41 steps) (61 steps) 26 TASCAM DM-24 Effects
