ECTION

As you can see in the flow chart above, the effects section gets its input from the
Voice Mix Level pot. At this point, the signal is mono. This signal appears at the

SEND

controls of both effects units. The Digital Effects unit can receive signal from its

own

SEND

control, but even if this is all the way down, it can still receive signal from

the Analog Distortion section's output. Now that you understand where the input to
the Digital Effects comes from, let's look at what goes on inside the Digital Effects
system:
