Understanding the EPS-16 PLUS Output Busses

A sound in the EPS-16 PLUS can be assigned to one of four stereo

sends, which we call busses. An understanding of how these
busses are routed to the OEX-6, as well as the EPS- 16 PLUS main

audio outputs, is crucial to your getting the most out of the OEX-6.
The signal flow of the four output busses is shown in the diagram
on the facing page. We suggest you study it carefully, as it can
answer many of your questions regarding what will be sent where.

The four output busses are as follows:

FX 1

Sounds assigned to this bus will 

always go 

to the

EPS- 16 PLUS’s internal effects processor and on to
the main audio outputs.

*BUS 2

*BUS 3

AUX 1

BUS 2 is “shared” by the internal effects

processor and the outputs marked BUS 2 on the
OEX-6. Sounds assigned to this bus will always go
to the OEX-6, but can be switched out of the EPS-16
PLUS’s internal effects processor (and thus the main
outputs) by turning the FX SEND BUS 2 parameter
on the Edit/System*MIDI

 page to OFF. (See below

for more details.)

Likewise, BUS 3 is “shared” by the internal

effects processor and the outputs marked BUS 3 on
the OEX-6. Sounds assigned to this bus will always
go to the OEX-6, but can be prevented from going to
the internal effects processor (and thus the main
outputs) by turning the FX SEND BUS 3 parameter
on the Edit/System*MIDI

 page to OFF. (See below

for more details.)

Sounds assigned to this bus will 

always go 

to the

output labeled AUX 1 on the OEX-6, and only to that
output.

As you can see from the above, BUS 2 and BUS 3 can be used as
additional effects mixes to the main outs, or as auxiliary outputs to
the OEX-6, depending on how you set the FX SEND parameters
and which outputs you bring up at your mixer. Some combination
of the two (two effects mixes and two dry auxilliary outs, for
example) might suit your needs best.
