Tips And Tricks
ering the fundamental output of the device significantly or by limiting specific parameters. However,
this type of problem occurs only in a very few, very specific scenarios. Since the problem is so con-
text-related, we chose not to lower the device’s output power or limit its parameters. Instead, we
recommend that you simply lower signal levels (Patch Volume, etc.) to prevent undesirable distor-
tion.
To help you keep an eye on signal levels, you can activate LED mode to visually monitor the levels
and amount of distortion of the three audio outputs and two aux buses.
About The Delay/Reverb
DELAY/REVERB EFFECT SEND
The Effect Send parameter works like a classic aux send knob on a mixer (post-fader), i.e. it adjusts
the level of the global DELAY/REVERB effect signal without influencing the dry signal. However, the
dry signal is faded out in the final third of the control range so that you can also patch just the pure
effect signal of a MULTI Part through as you would it you were using a conventional dry/wet effect
knob.
DELAY/REVERB OUTPUT SELECT
The DELAY/REVERB Output Select function lets you send the DELAY/REVERB section’s output sig-
nal to any mono or stereo outputs. If you patch the DELAY/REVERB signal to a virtual aux bus, it
can be processed further by means of a MULTI Part that taps into this aux bus (INPUT Select), and
even routed back into the into the DELAY or REVERB via the same PART’s effect send loop, which
generates feedback. With this feedback circuit, you can filter and trigger the DELAY/REVERB signal,
modulate its volume and even lay chorus over it. When you’re working with feedback, be sure to
keep a watchful eye on the signal level. The DELAY/REVERB section’s level can easily rise to an
intolerable volume (e.g. when the level is cranked up by a filter resonance) when the amount of
feedback that you have dialed in is too great.
