7 - Internal effect processor—Effect types
7–2
NOTE
Turn off the Aux sends from this module to the
Aux busses that feed the processor. If you
send from the effect return module back into
the effect processor, feedback will result. This
applies, of course, to all effect returns, but it is
particularly easy to overlook on an internal
effect processor.
7.2 Effect types
The effect processor provides a number of different
major effect types (some of which have sub-types),
as listed here:
• Reverb (Hall, Room, Live and Studio sub-types)
• Gated Reverb
• Delay (Stereo, Ping-pong and Multi-tap)
• Chorus
• Flanger
• Phaser
• Pitch shifter
• Exciter
• Dynamics (Compressor/Limiter/Expander)
• De-esser
The Compressor/Expander/Limiter available as an
effect here is different from the dynamics processors
available for each module. Settings made and stored
for the effect processor in this setting cannot be
recalled for channel dynamic effects, and
vice versa
.
Likewise, the gated reverb effect uses a gate which is
independent of any channel dynamics processor gate
settings.
7.2.1 Selecting a basic effect type
The way in which an effect is selected is from the
library. The library contains a number of different
preset effects, which may be used “as is” or used as
starting points for experimentation and creation of
new effect settings, which may be stored in the
library.
1
Press the
EFFECT
key in the Library section
[4]
.
Notice that the current settings for the effect
send and return, as well as the currently-
selected effect, are shown at the top right of
this screen.
2
Make sure that the central lower part of the
screen is pointing towards the right (as
shown above). If it is not, turn the
SHUTTLE
wheel clockwise, so that it reads
LIST
SCROLL
(not
CHAR SELECT
).
3
Turn the
JOG
dial to scroll through the list of
available effects. As the effects are high-
lighted, the effect type is shown in large char-
acters on the screen.
Effects which are preset library effects are
shown with an inverse
R
(
R
ead-only).
4
When the effect to be recalled has been high-
lighted, move the cursor to the on-screen
RECALL
button, and press
ENTER
.
7.2.2 Editing a recalled effect
The
EFFECT
key in the Mixer section (not the
EFFECT
key in the Library section) is used to bring
up the
EFFECT
screen,
Up to four POD knobs in the top row may be used to
set parameters for the effect, as follows.
