1 - Internal Effects on the DM-24-Effect send sources Example 2 (Loop/insert setting with 1 & 2 both = stereo input) In this example, both effects are used in insert mode. Busses 1 and 2 use a effect 1 as a stereo phaser (this can be turned on or off as needed for a creative effect). Effect 2 (a chorus) is inserted into an input channel (for example, a fretless bass) in order to thicken the sound. In this example, because these effects are being used by only one channel each, there is no need to tie up the aux sends and returns, which can then be used for other purposes. Example 4: 1/2 series (1=mono input, 2=stereo input) In this example, the two effects are put in series, with effect 1 (echo) taking a mono mic signal and echoing it to the left and right channels. The stereo compressor assigned to effect 2 is inserted in the stereo output buss in order to limit the dynamic range of the stereo outputs. Example 3: (Loop/insert setting with 1 & 2 both = mono input) Here again, both effect 1 and effect 2 are used as inserts, but they both have mono inputs. Effect 1 (a distortion setting) is being used with a distortion effect, in order to achieve a distorted vocal sound. These echoes are then passed to the reverb, where they are processed "in-place" to provide an interesting stereo effect (note that reversing these two effects would produce echoed reverb-probably less desirable). Effect send sources Whether the effect (or in series mode, both effects together) is used as a loop or an insert depends on the source selected for the effect inputs. Aux 1 through 6 When these are selected as effect input sources, the effect is placed in a loop. The effect output with this setting is assigned to a channel using the I/O screens (see "Signal sources" on page 36 of the main manual). If a channel has already been assigned to take its input from an internal effect, this channel is shown TASCAM DM-24 Effects 5
