FXpansion GURU - Manual (Page 61)

Settings are saved for effects in the same slot during the
current GURU session, so you can safely try out alternative
effects or use the Bypass setting. Only the active effect’s set-
tings are saved with your host project, or in a GURU bundle.
Whenever an Aux effect control is moved, a readout appears
next to the effect selectors, displaying the parameter value.
Please refer to the signal flow diagram in section 11:1 for de-
tails on how these effects are mixed in the GURU signal path.
8:3 Mix View
The Mix view consists of 8 ‘channel strips’, as well as the In-
sert effect area below them. The Mix view insert area displays
the Engine insert slot for the currently selected Engine chan-
nel or, if the Master channel is selected, the Master insert slot.
Engine channels
Click on an Engine channel in order to select it as the cur-
rent Engine (you can also use the Engine selector buttons in
the GURU toolbar). When you select an Engine, the Mix view
insert area displays the Engine insert effect for that Engine.
Any unused Engines’ channels will be ‘greyed out’ in the Mix
view, although you can still click on them in order to adjust
their settings. When selected, an Engine will be highlighted
more brightly than the rest.
Pattern/Pad display
Each engine channel in GURU’s Mix view contains an over-
view display of the currently-playing Pattern and Pads in the
Engine. The display is updated constantly to represent which
of them are playing at any time. If you ever feel the need to see
some dancing lights when using GURU, this is where to look.
