Using the insert effect
This section explains how to select the position for the insert
effect, how to select a patch, and how to edit the patch.
About insert effect patches
The insert effect is a multi-effect unit that contains a number
of single effects such as compressor, distortion, and delay,
connected in series. Each of these separate effects is called
an “effect module”, and up to six effect modules can be used
simultaneously.
A combination of effect modules that can be used
simultaneously is called an “algorithm”. You can use one of
the following five algorithms.
● DUAL
This algorithm has two entirely separate mono inputs and
mono outputs. The algorithm comprises three types: “Mic &
Mic” for two microphones, “G/B & Mic” for guitar/bass and
microphone, and “Gtr & Bass” for guitar and bass.
An algorithm suitable for simultaneous recording of vocals
and guitar, or for two guitars or bass guitars.
● GUITAR/BASS
An algorithm suitable for recording guitar/bass.
● MIC
An algorithm suitable for vocals or microphone recording.
● LINE
An algorithm suitable mainly for recording line-level output
instruments such as synthesizer or electric piano.
● MASTERING
An algorithm suitable for processing a stereo mix signal,
such as during mixdown.
The arrangement of the effect modules and the signal flow
for each algorithm is shown in the diagram below.
H INT
There are three types of algorithms: mono input/stereo out-
put, stereo input/stereo output, and mono input x 2/mono
output x 2. This difference will affect the signal flow when the
insert effect is inserted. For details, refer to p.120.
Each effect module comprises various parameters that adjust
the effect type and the effect depth. Settings for the
parameters of each effect module and an overall volume
setting (patch level) are collectively referred to as a “patch”.
A newly created project contains 280 patches, and these
patches are organized according to the five algorithms. You
can instantly switch insert effect settings simply by selecting
the appropriate algorithm, and then selecting a patch.
