WhatÕs on a Program output bus?
There are a number of ways to determine which signals will be on the buses KDFX-A through
KDFX-D coming from the Program editor. Depending on how the K2500 is set up, a Program
output bus can contain:
¥
one or more individual layers of a single Program
¥
multiple layers from a Program
¥
all
the layers on a Program, as set with the ÒOutPairÓ parameter on the ProgramÕs
Common
page
¥
multiple programs
¥
one or more Zones from a Setup, as set on the SetupsÕ
CH/PRG
page
¥
or the output from one or more MIDI channels, as set on
MIDIMode:Channels
page.
The Arrow Meter
On an Input page, whenever there is signal present on its Bus, the arrow next to the letter of the
Bus ßashes. This is a good way to check that you have set up your Program output routings
correctly. More on this later.
EQ
The input signal Þrst passes through two equalizers. These equalizers are independent of each
other, but the signal is chained: it goes through the one on the left of the screen, then through
the one to its immediate right. Each equalizer has a frequency (ÒFÓ) control and, depending on
the mode, a gain (ÒGÓ) control. The mode of each EQ module is changed by placing the cursor
in the appropriate block and turning the Alpha wheel or using the
+
and
-
keys. There are eight
modes on the Þrst EQ, and six on the second:
¥
None
. No effect, the signal passes through unchanged.
¥
LoShelf
. Boosts or cuts frequencies below the ÒFÓ value by ÒGÓ decibels.
¥
HiShelf
. Boosts or cuts frequencies above the ÒFÓ value by ÒGÓ decibels.
¥
LoPass1
. Cuts frequencies above the ÒFÓ level with a 6 dB/oct (1-pole) slope.
¥
LoPass2
. Cuts frequencies above the ÒFÓ level with a 12 dB/oct (2-pole) slope.
¥
HiPass1
. Cuts frequencies below the ÒFÓ level with a 6 dB/oct (1-pole) slope.
¥
HiPass2
(not available on the second EQ). Cuts frequencies below the "F" level with a
steeper 12 db/oct (2-pole) slope.
¥
ParaMid
(not available on the second EQ). Provides a cut or boost centered around the "F"
frequency. The bandwidth of the equalizer is two octaves. An illustration of the action of
this equalizer mode is at the top of page 14-24 of the
K2500 Performance Guide
.
