Lower then raise the faders that correspond to the effect you
are using for return signals. Make sure the corresponding

Lower then raise the fader for the channel you wish to route
to the effects processor. Then lower and raise the Master fader
to set the desired effects send signal level.
This sends the channel signal to the selected effects processor.
The effects send meter in the
CH VIEW function page displays the
level of the effects send signal, indicating that signals are being fed
to the selected effects processor. As you raise the faders, you
should hear more of the effect sound.
If input channels are paired, their effect send controls will be
linked.
You can edit and store effects settings. Refer to “Storing Effects
Programs” on page 135 for more information.
Routing Effects Returns
Once you’ve routed a signal to an effects processor and returned it to
the mix as described in the preceding sections, you can route it to sev-
eral destinations.
You can route Effects returns to the stereo buss (ST BUSS) or the
recording buss (REC BUSS). See “Routing Input Channels” on
page 66 for more information.
You can also route signals to AUX Sends 1 through 4. (Note that the
REC BUSS OUT is disabled if AUX Sends 3 and 4 are selected).
Note: If you set the Smoothing function to Level 2 (default), AUX1 and
EFF1 are linked, and AUX2 and EFF2 are linked. Therefore, setting the
EFF1 level will set AUX1 to the same level. Similarly, setting the EFF2 level
sets AUX2 to the same level. If the Smoothing function is set to Level 1, you
may hear a slight stepping noise when you move the fader. For more infor-
mation, see “Smoothing Function” on page 120.
