Section 3. Using effects
The MICRO BR contains two effects processors
(insert effects and reverb).
You can use both the insert effects and reverb
simultaneously, and make settings for each as
desired.
Here we will explain how to adjust the various
settings (parameters) for each insert effects, and
how to save your settings.
“Parameter List” (p. 67)
“Reverb Parameters” (p. 75)
You can change the type of effect produced by
the insert effects processor and the parameter
settings for the effect by calling up an “effect
patch.”
The MICRO BR contains a wide variety of effect
patches that are suitable for vocals and various
instruments. These patches are organized into
“banks” according to the type of input source for
which each patch is intended.

Using Insert Effects
What is an insert effect?
An effect added directly to a specific signal
(with the MICRO BR, this refers to the
instrumental sounds from GUITAR IN etc.)
is called an “insert effect.” The effect pedals
that a guitarist connects between his guitar
and amp are a type of the insert effects.
Loop effects, on the other hand, are effects
connected to the send/return jack of mixers
and other similar devices. The MICRO BR
comes with onboard reverb effects (p. 74).
You can use the insert effects not only while
recording, but also apply it to the sound
when mixing the tracks.
For details, refer to “Changing how the
insert effects are used” (p. 64).

What is an effect patch?
The MICRO BR provides numerous effects
for vocals, guitar, etc., and two or more of
these effects can be used simultaneously.
Such a combination of effects (i.e., the types
of the effects used and the order in which
they are connected) is called an “algorithm.”
Each effect in an algorithm offers a certain
number of parameters, which allow the
sound to be altered (similar to tweaking the
knobs on a stomp pedal). The algorithm and
its parameter settings are bundled into units
called “effect patches.”
By changing the effect patch, you can
simultaneously change the stored effect
combinations, their on/off status, and the
parameter settings, and completely change
the sound.
