Flashing
Highlight the “Lo Gain” field by using the [CURSOR ]
key, and edit the “Lo Gain” value using the [JOG] dial.
You can set the value between -18 dB and + 18 dB, as
same as the Hi Gain.
Repeat steps 2 through 4 to edit EQ on other tracks.
After completing the EQ setting, press the [EXIT/NO]
key.
The LCD returns to the Normal screen.
Setting effects
Press the [EFFECT] key.
The effect send level setting screen appears initially.
Each press of the
[EFFECT] key switches between the
effect send level setting screen, effect type selection
screen and effect send pre/post selection screen.
Effect send level setting
While the effect send level setting screen is shown,
press the [TRACK STATUS/TRACK SEL] key of the
desired track.
The effect knob icon of the selected track is highlighted,
showing that it can be edited. The default value for track
sends 1 through 6 is
“0” while the default value for the
master is “80” .
Use the [JOG] dial to enter the send level.
While the send level changes, the corresponding icon
also changes in real time.
When the value increases, the effect sound of the cur-
rently selected effect type will be output.
To set the effect send levels for other tracks, carry out
step 2 and 3 above repeatedly.
Effect type setting
The VF80EX provides 38 effect types (L01 through L38) used
for the loop effect and 6 effect types (L39 through L44) used
for the insert effect.
Bring up the effect type setting screen and select the
desired effect type by rotating the [JOG] dial.
While rotating the [JOG] dial, the effect type appears
one after the other among 38 types (L01 ~ L38).
After selecting the desired effect type, press the [EN-
TER/YES] key.
The selected effect type is set.
Press the [EFFECT] key to bring up the effect send level
setting screen.
Adjust the effect send levels as described above.
<Pre/post setting of effect sends>
All the effect sends from tracks 1 through 6 are
initially set to
“post-fader” . Therefore, when a track
fader is completely down, no signal is sent even if
you raise the effect send level of the track.
You can also select
“pre-fader” if necessary.
See “Mixer functions” for details.
<Parameter setting for each effect type>
You can set parameters for the selected effect type.
See
“Mixer functions” for details about parameter
setting.
<On/Off setting of the effect>
You can switch on or off the effect alternately by
pressing the
[EFFECT/ON/OFF] key while holding
down the [SHIFT] key.
See “Mixer functions” for details.

processor of the VF80EX: “loop effect” and
“insert effect” .
The following describes how to set the send level and
select an effect type of the loop effect.

such as how to make pre/post setting of an effect send

tion are not shown.
