Routing effect settings
The insert effects, master effects, and total effect have
the same structure in all modes, but the routing
settings will determine how the oscillators of a
program or the timbres of a combination or track of a
song will be sent to each insert effect, master effect or
total effect. In the pages that follow, we will explain
how you can make routing settings and effect settings
in each mode.
Program Effects settings
Routing
1. Access the Prog P8: IFX– Routing page.
2. Use Bus (IFX/Output) Select to specify the bus to
which the oscillator output will be sent. If you
want the oscillator output to be input to insert
effect 1, choose IFX1.
L/R: The output will not be sent to the total effect. After
passing through the total effect, the sound will be sent
to AUDIO OUTPUT (MAIN) L/MONO and R.
IFX1–5: The output will be sent to insert effect IFX 1–5.
1–4, 1/2–3/4: The output will be sent to AUDIO
OUTPUT (INDIVIDUAL) 1–4. It will not be sent to the
insert effects, the master effects, or the total effect.
Off: The output will not be sent to AUDIO OUTPUT
(MAIN) L/MONO, R, or to (INDIVIDUAL) 1–4.
Choose this if you want the signal to be series-
connected to the master effects at the send levels
specified by Send 1 (to MFX1) and Send 2 (to MFX2).
3. OSC MFX Send specifies the send level from each
oscillator to the master effects.
This can be set only when Bus (IFX/Output) Select is
either L/R or Off.
If Bus (IFX/Output) Select is set to IFX1–5, the send
level to the master effects is set by Send1 and Send2
(Insert FX Setup page) after the signal passes through
the insert effects.
4. “FX Control Bus” sends the oscillator 1 and 2
output to the FX Control bus. Use this if you want
the audio input to the effect to be controlled by a
different sound.
You can use the two FX Control buses to control effects
freely. (See “FX Control Buses” on page 423 of the
Parameter Guide)
5. AUX Bus sends the oscillator 1 and 2 output to the
AUX buses.
In the P0: Play– Sampling/Audio In page, you can set
the Sampling Setup Source Bus to a AUX bus, and
sample the signal being sent to the AUX bus. Normally
you will turn this Off, since you will usually set Source
Bus
to L/R when sampling the output of oscillator 1
and 2.
Insert effects
6. Access the Prog P8: IFX– Insert FX Setup page.
7. Choose the effect type that you want to use for
each insert effect IFX1–5.
When you press the popup button, all effects will be
displayed, organized into ten categories. Use the pages
located at the left and right to select a category, and
select an effect from that category on the display.
You can use the Copy Insert Effect menu command to
copy effect settings from another program etc. Also,
you can use Swap Insert Effect to exchange (for
example) IFX1 and IFX5.
8. Press the On/Off button to turn on the insert
effect.
Each time you press the button, the insert effect will be
switched on/off. When Off, the result will be the same
as when 000: No Effect is selected. The input sound
will be output without change.
9. Make Chain settings.
If the Chain check box is checked, the insert effect will
be connected in series. Since the output of the oscillator
is being sent to IFX1 in step 2, making settings as
shown in the diagram step 6 would connect all five
insertion effects IFX1
→ IFX2 → IFX3 in series, so that
these effects would be inserted into the output of the
oscillator.
10.Make settings for Pan: #8 , “Bus (Bus Select),”
“Send 1,” “Send 2,” “AUX Bus” and “Ctrl Bus” for
the sound after it has passed through the insert
effects.
If you’ve specified a chain, the settings that follow the
last IFX in the chain will be valid (except for Ctrl Bus).
Pan: Sets the pan of the IFX output.
Bus (Bus Select): Specifies the output destination.
Normally you will set this to L/R. If you wish to send
the sound that has passed through the insert effects to
