Adjust the level of the signal sent to the effect from each track by using their SEND EFF 1/EFF 2 knobs. NOTE The return level from the send effect (RETURN LEVEL) can be adjusted on the Send Effect screen. 1. Press the EFFECT button to open the Effect screen. 2. Set the send effect. Press the EFFECT button to open the Effect screen where the last operation was performed. Press the F3 (SELECT) button to select one from the 3 available types (REVERB, DELAY, CHORUS). You cannot use multiple types of effects simultaneously. Align the cursor with the parameter that you want to select, and then use the JOG/DATA dial to set the parameter. The return from the send effect is mixed with the stereo signal. 3. After making the send effect setting, press the HOME button to return to the Home screen. 4. Use the SEND EFF 1 knob to adjust the level of the signal sent to the send effect of each track. TIP When using an external effect, connect the output of the external effect (return) to INPUT A to H. By assigning the connected input to the stereo bus, you can return the effect sound to the stereo bus. (See "Assigning to a stereo bus" on page 35.) Creating a master file When you are satisfied with your mix, this unit can record the mixed down tracks and create a master file. A master file recorded by this unit is saved as part of the song. This master file can be recorded by an external stereo recorder, and can also be converted by the unit into a WAV file and stored with the same name of a song in the song folder of the SD card. NOTE Only one master file (song name ".wav") can be created inside a song (when mastering, there is another file besides the master file (song name ".wav"), but it is a file for internal use). Setting the start and end points Before creating a master file, set the start and end points of the mixed down master file. The range between the song's IN point and OUT point will be recorded as the master file. Ordinarily, set the beginning of the song as the IN point and the end of the song as OUT point. Press and hold the MARK SET button and press the IN button where you want to set the IN point (start point) of the master file, and press and hold the MARK SET button and press the OUT button where you want to set the OUT point (end point). For more information about how to correct the IN/OUT points, see "Setting IN/OUT points" on page 45. 56 TASCAM DP-24SD
