Input Source
Each block’s Input and Output can be set up independently. To
access the I/O display of a block, place the cursor on the current
block (in the Routing page) using the Parameter wheel, and press
Enter. Watch the block diagram of the block as you change the
settings.
Input:
The Input parameter controls what input source the
current block should use, Left (L), Right (R) or both
(L+R).
Out L/R: The Output parameter determines what should be
sent out of the current block, Off=No output on this
channel, Mix=Applies to the Mix parameter in the
“Edit, Parameter” page, Dry=The channel will only
pass direct signal, Wet=The channel will only pass
effect signal.
Press Exit to leave the Block I/O display.
NOTE: Some of the blocks have no input source i.e. the Synth
blocks.
The Mute modes of the blocks
The Mute mode sets up how the front panel mute key of the
current block is working.
NOTE: The Mute mode can influence the sound of the Preset
change if the FireworX is set to “Effect mute - Off” in the Utility,
Config. page (see “Recall - Recall Mode” for further
description).
Here is the description of what the five modes will do when the
front panel mute key is pressed:
Mix 0%: Will set the Mix parameter in the Edit, Parameter page
to 0% = Set direct signal level up to 100%.
FX Out: Will mute the output of the effect, and
preserve direct signal level, according to Mix.
Output: Will mute both the output of the effect and the
direct signal.
FX In: Will mute the input of the effect, and preserve the
direct signal level. This enables the block to finish an
effect tail after being bypassed, e.g. using this mute
mode on a delay will let the delay tail ring out, even
after being muted (only the Delay, Reverb and Pitch
have this mute mode).
Input: Will mute both the input of the effect and the
direct signal. Same basic function as FX In,
only this mode will also mute the direct
signal (only the Delay, Reverb and Pitch have
this Mute mode).
NOTE: Using the Input/Output mute modes will mean that no
signal passes through the current block when muted.
Press Enter again while working in the block I/O
page to access the block edit page.
