Master Effects (MFX1, 2) Routing
433
Routing
If you are not using any Insert Effects in any mode, the
Master Effects send levels are determined by the Send1 (to
MFX1)
and Send2 (to MFX2) parameters specified
independently for the oscillators (Program/Sampling
mode), timbres (Combination mode), tracks (Sequencer
mode), and audio inputs (in all modes).
For example, since you can adjust the master effect send
levels for each timbre/track, you can make settings so that
reverb is applied deeply to the piano, lightly to the strings,
and not at all to the bass.
If you’re using insert effects, use the post-IFX Send1 and
Send2
to adjust the send amounts.
Program mode
Use the Send1 (to MFX1) and Send2 (to MFX2) parameters
of the P8– Routing page, or the Send1 and Send2
parameters of the P8– Insert FX Setup page for the post-
IFX1–5 signals, to set the Master Effect send level.
If you have set Bus Select to L/R or Off, Send1 (to MFX1)
and Send2 (to MFX2) of the “Routing” page are effective.
These parameters can be set for oscillators 1 and 2
individually.
If you have set Bus Select to IFX1–5, Send1 and Send2 of
the “Insert FX” page for the post-P8– IFX1–5 signals are
effective. If you are using the Insert Effects in chain (series),
the Send1 and Send2 parameters for the post-IFX (last IFX)
are effective.
If you have set Bus Select to 1–4, or 1/2, 3/4, the oscillator
signals are output directly to AUDIO OUTPUT
(INDIVIDUAL) 1–4.
In this case the Send 1 and Send 2 settings are ignored, and
the Master Effects will not be applied.
Send1 responds to CC#93 and Send2 responds to
CC#91 on the global MIDI channel (Global 1–1a). At
this time, the actual send level uses the value of the
Send 1 and 2 settings for Oscillators 1 and 2, multiplied
by the Send 1 and 2 values received via MIDI.
If you have selected “Drums” for Oscillator Mode (Prog 1–
1a) of a Program, the “Use DKit Setting” box (Prog 8–1c)
becomes available. If you check this box, Send1 and Send2
levels for each key of the selected DrumKit become effective.
If Bus Select (Global 5–4b) is set to L/R or Off for a drum
instrument key, Send1 (to MFX1) and Send2(toMFX2)
(Global 5–4b) become effective.
If Bus Select is set to IFX1–5, the post-IFX1–5 Send1 and
Send2
(Prog 8–5a) become effective.
If this is unchecked, Send1 (to MFX1) and Send2 (to MFX2)
(Prog 8–1d), and the post IFX1–5 Send1 and Send2 (Prog 8–
2a) will be valid for all drum instruments, in the same way
as when Oscillator Mode is Single or Double.
Combination and Sequencer modes
Use Send1 (to MFX1) and Send2 (to MFX2) (P8: “Routing”
page) for timbres (Combination) and tracks (Sequencer) to
set the Send1 and 2 levels for each timbre and track. As with
Program mode, if Bus Select is set to L/R or Off, Send1 (to
MFX1)
and Send2 (to MFX2) become effective.
The actual levels use these Send1 and 2 level values,
multiplied by the send level values of oscillators 1 and 2 of
the Program P8: “Routing” page.
Send level
For example if you set the program’s OSC1 Send1 (to
MFX1)
to 127, Send2 (to MFX2) to 064, OSC2 Send1 (to
MFX1) to 064, Send2 (to MFX2) to 127, and the
combination’s Send1 (to MFX1) to 064 and Send2 (to MFX2)
to 127, the actual send levels of the combination will be as
follows.
OSC1 Send1=127 (100%) *064 (50%)=064 (50%)
OSC1 Send2=064 (50%) *127 (100%)=064 (50%)
OSC2 Send1=064 (50%) *064 (50%)=032 (25%)
OSC2 Send2=127 (100%) *127 (100%)=127 (100%)
If IFX1–5 is selected for Bus Select, use the Send1 and
Send2
parameters for the post-IFX signals. If 1–4, or 1/2, 3/
4 is selected instead, these Send1 and 2 settings are ignored
and the Master Effect is not applied.
Send1 responds to CC#93, and Send2 responds to
CC#91. If Send1 (to MFX1) and Send2 (MFX2)” for each
timbre/track are effective, the parameter will be
controlled on the MIDI channels set for the
corresponding timbres and tracks. If the Send1 and
Send2
parameters for the post-IFX1–5 signals are
effective, they can be controlled on the MIDI channels
assigned to IFX1–5.
An example for Combination mode is given below. In the
following diagram, Bus Select is set so that Timbre 1 is
routed to IFX1, Timbre 2 to IFX2, Timbres 3 and 4 to IFX3,
Timbres 5–16 to L/R.
In this case, use Send1 and Send2 for the post-IFX1 (001:
Stereo Compressor) signal to set the send level of the Timbre
1 routed to the Master Effect. (In this example they are set to
032 and 127.) In the same way, use Send1 and Send2 for the
post-IFX2 signal to set the send levels of Timbres 2, and use
the Send1 and Send2 parameters for the post-IFX3 signal to
set the send levels of Timbres 3 and 4. For Timbres 5–8, the
settings of Send1 (to MFX1) and Send2 (to MFX2) will be
effective (for Timbres 9–16, use the Routing 1 T09–16 page).
(At this time, the actual send levels use these Send 1 and 2
values multiplied by the Send1 and 2 settings for Program
oscillators 1 and 2.)
