Serial
The serial mode is a stereo Input/Output
routing. It gives you two independent
effects in the same signal path. Please
understand that the entire Output from Engine 1 is fed into the
Input of Engine 2.
A common use of this particular routing could be
selecting a De-esser; a Compressor or a Chorus in
Engine 1 and a reverb or delay in Engine 2.
Parallel
The Parallel mode is a stereo Input/Output routing. Both Engines
will work as stereo effects and their Output
will be mixed down to a stereo signal. With
this routing, the M3000 can be used as two
parallel effects on the same stereo source.
You may also set the I/O menu to left Input to get two
independent stereo out effects on the M3000 from a single send on
the mixer.
Dual Mono
Using this mode you actually split the
M3000 into two independent mono effect
units. Use left Input/Output to connect
Engine 1, and right Input/Output to
connect Engine 2.
Linked
When you select the Linked Routing, the
two Engines will link together. This
means that the preset in Engine 1 will be
copied into Engine 2 and the Edit pages
will lock together. The Linked Routing is indicated by the two
EDIT LEDs which will be lit simultaneously. Left and Right
channel audio paths are completely separated in this routing.
Use this routing when you need e.g. two similar EQs,
De-essers or Compressors.
ROUTING
Press the ROUTING key in the "Setup section" to choose between six different routings. Use the CURSOR keys to
select a new routing followed by the OK key to confirm your choice. A small pop-up window will tell you that the
routing has changed.
Please note that how the selected Routing works, is highly affected by the settings of the Channel and MIX
parameters in the I/O display. (Please see page 16).
