The VS-880EX contains effects, allowing up to two stereo effects to be applied
without using any equipment other than the VS-880EX itself.

This chapter explains how to use these internal effects.

Composition of the Effects

The VS-880EX has two effect units which allow two types of effect to be applied
simultaneously (FX1 and FX2). For each channel of the mixer you can specify the
effect which will be used.

Connecting the Effects

Changing the Source Sound Itself (Insert)

The effect is directly added either between each channel’s equalizer and fader or
before the master fader. Connect the effect in this way if you want to use effects
applied to change the output of the sound itself, such as when using distortion
or overdrive effects.

When inserting an effect into one of the channels or into the Master Block, that
effect cannot be used in send/return.

* Depending on the effects used, when mixing with different effects inserted into each

channel, or mixing channels having effects inserted with other channels having no
effects, timing shifts may occur, or you may not be able to achieve the effect you desire.
