FX
EFFECTS SEND/RETURN LEVELS
Effects levels are governed by the amount sent to them via the FX sends on each channel. The MASTER FX/AUX SEND levels, however, are set in the MASTER channel�s CHANNEL view page in the MIXER mode (they can also be adjusted using the default assignments in the USER BANK on Channels 1-4 (internal FX) and Channels 5-8 (AUX sends)). The FX RETURNS (by default) appear on channels 9-12 of the GROUP/FX fader bank and can have their levels automated and they may be muted and solo�d as on any other channel. They can also be configured to use the FX/ AUX sends so that effects can be sent to effects to create effects chains. However, they cannot be EQ�d. If you want to EQ (or otherwise process an effects return), the outputs of the effects channel should be patched to the inputs (see the description of the PATCH pages).
SETTING UP MULTI-EFFECTS
Although some effects are multi-effects (chorus+delay, for example), these are essentially quite simple - useful but basic. However, it is possible to set up complex multi effects by sending FX returns to other FX channels. For example, with the following combination of effects... FX1 FX2 FX3 FX4 Chorus Phaser Ping-Pong Delay Large Hall
By sending a proportion of FX1 RETURN to FX2 (i.e. via FX2 send on the FX1 RETURN channel), you can add some phasing to the chorused sound. By sending a proportion of FX2 RETURN to FX3, echo can be added to that and by sending a proportion of FX3 RETURN to FX4, reverb can be added. With combinations of pre- and post-fade sends, a great deal of flexibility is offered. However, please note that the sends for the FX RETURN channels need to be configured to do this because, by default, to conserve mixer resources, the FX SENDS on the FX RETURNS are disabled.
RECORDING EFFECTS
To actually record something with effects (i.e. commit the effects to disk during the track laying process), route the appropriate effects return channel to disk via the groups just like any normal channel. For example, to record a pad sound coming in on Channel 4 with stereo chorus and reverb to Track 7/8.... 1. Use FX1 and 2 sends to send a proportion of Input 4 to FX1 and 2 set up as chorus and reverb respectively. Route Input 4 to Group 7/8 2. In the GROUP/FX fader bank, route FX RETURN 1 and 2 to Group 7/8 as well (you might also like to send a bit of FX 1 RETURN to FX2 so that the chorus has a hint of reverb too). Balance the FX return against the �dry� signal on Input 4. 3. Select Tracks 7/8 for record.... Input 4 AND the FX RETURNS will be recorded to tracks 7/8.
ADDING EFFECTS TO A CONTROL ROOM MONITOR MIX
Very often, vocalists like to hear reverb on their vocals during the track laying process in order to have their performance �flattered�. However, it�s not a good idea to commit the reverb to disk at that stage. To record a vocal coming in on Input 1 to Track 4 dry but with reverb �monitoring�... 1. Route Input 1 to Group 4, select Track 4 for record. 2. Monitor the vocal line via Disk Channel 4.
