Version OS 1.0
7.5 Effects
There are two on-board effects available: reverb and delay. Actually the fx section is
part of parameter sets of the single kit and stored along with the preset. It is handled
like an instrument page.
The fx are send effects. Every analog instrument has its own A/D converter for this
purpose. Exceptions are Kick Drum and MBrane who share the A/D converter with the
sampling inputs and the stereo mix out via an input selector switch.
The true analog signal from the instrument's output is picked up, A/D converted and
sent to the FX input.
The fx send amount controls the FX intensity of the instrument. For professional studio
applications, there is a reverb kill switch that mutes all digital effects with one click –
Knob 14 click mutes or unmutes all FX.
