Using insert effects
This section will provide a description of the methods for
changing and saving the various parameters for insert effects.
Rather than being restricted to usage only during recording,
the BR-1600CD’s insert effects can also be used with a
specific track during playback or with the mix created from
various tracks. For more detailed information, refer to
“Changing insert effect connections” (p. 82).
Effect patches and banks
The specific effect used as an insert and the parameters set
for this effect are changed by selecting what is called as an
Effect Patch. The BR-1600CD contains a wide range of preset
effect patches that have been set up for guitars, vocals, and
many other instruments. These patches are grouped by input
source, and each grouping is referred to as a Bank. The
makeup of banks is as follows:
fig.31-00
Whenever you press INPUT SELECT buttons, the
appropriate bank of effects will be automatically selected.
For example, when you press [GUITAR/BASS], a patch from
the Guitar bank will be automatically loaded, and when you
press [VOCAL], a patch from the MIC bank will be
automatically selected. The relationship between INPUT
SELECT buttons and the selected bank is as follows:
[GUITAR/BASS] Guitar bank
[VOCAL] MIC bank
[SIMUL] Simul bank
[MULTI-TRACK] Multi-channel bank
[STEREO TRACKS] Stereo bank
Furthermore, each of these banks contains various different
patches, as shown below.
Preset patches
Guitar bank P001 through P100
MIC bank P001 through P050
Simul bank P001 through P050
Multi-channel bank P001 through P010
Stereo bank P001 through P050
Preset patches contain data that has been set up in advance,
and it will not be possible to write new settings to them.
User patches
Guitar bank U001 through U100
MIC bank U001 through U050
Simul bank U001 through U050
Multi-channel bank U001 through U010
Stereo bank U001 through U050
User patches are stored on the BR-1600CD’s hard disk, and
their settings can be modified and saved. As a result, you
will be able to access these patches from any song. If you
have created an effect patch that you also want to use in a
different song, you should save it as a user patch.
Song patches
Guitar bank S001 through S100
MIC bank S001 through S050
Simul bank S001 through S050
Multi-channel bank S001 through S010
Stereo bank S001 through S050
Song patches can be modified and saved in the same way as
user patches; however, their data is stored on the hard disk
as part of the song that they are used in. As a result, these
patches prove extremely useful when you want each song to
maintain the specific effect settings that were used during
recording of its tracks.
At the time of purchase, the user patches in each of the
BR-1600CD’s effect banks will contain the same settings
as the corresponding preset patches. Furthermore, when
you create a new song (Song New), the song patches in
each effect bank will be set up by copying the
corresponding user patches.
