Setting up the effects rack
You can set up the effects rack (in the GUI’s Effects screen)
to contain any of the available effects listed in the Change
Device Type window, in any of the eight rack positions.
This is a GUI-only function. The diagram right shows the
rack populated with the seven available effects.
The assignable controls panel (shown in the Delay
diagram below) is common to all effects, and allows you to
control effects parameters via the equivalent panel on the
control surface (master bay).
Delay — provides simple delay
line-based effects. Delay times can
be specified manually or you can use
the ‘tempo-tap’ button. It has a
three-mode delay algorithm: one
delay tap (mono or stereo
processing); dual - two delay lines
(stereo inset only); and ping-pong -
two delay lines with cross feedback.
DN780 — is a reverberation device
that emulates the Klark Teknik
DN780 Digital Reverberator/
Processor unit and allows you to
create unique acoustic environments
of virtually any type.
Flanger — has one or, if configured
as stereo, two tap delay lines. One
tap is fixed and the other tap
position is modulated to provide
‘thru-zero’ flanging or single tap
modulation when ‘thru-zero’ is off.
Phaser — has one, or if configured
for dual operation, two stereo
phasers connected in serial or
parallel, according to mode setting.
Pitch Shifter — has two
independent channels that can
independently shift the pitch of
signals up or down to correct poor
pitching or generate harmonies. The
pitch change can also be modulated
as an effect.
SQ1 Dynamics — is an emulation
of the Klark Teknik Square ONE
Dynamics, which is an 8-channel
analogue dynamics processor. Used
for the precise manipulation of
compression parameters, it also
includes gating for creative and
corrective applications, and channel
linking for stereo/multi-channel
operation.
