Note : Please note that the reverb and delay effect are always directed to the Main Stereo Output (Stereo Output 1)
The FX Mixer Area
You can specify in a precise way the wet part of any selected Drum Pad in this area. The 4
available channel effects are : Reverb, Delay, Phaser and Crusher/Distortion
Reverb, Delay, and Phaser are Global Effects, and each one have its own auxiliary bus : All
drumpads will share the same settings. Crusher/Disto is an insert effect, and each drumpad
can have a different Crusher/Disto effect.
Each effect has its associated Knob : Turning it’s knob clockwise will increase the linked
effect, while turning it anticlockwise will decrease the effect.
Please note that : The reverb and Delay sends are auxiliary sends, and they will feed two
respective independent auxiliary channels that will be mixed in the Stereo Output 1 bus
channel/ The Crusher and Distortion units however are insert effects, which means that the
amount knob will act as a dry/wet mix knob, and the resulting sound will be sent to whatever
output the channel is assigned to.
Effects settings can be specified in the Effect Area (Please consult the next section of this
manual for more details about this subject)
Important : Please not that the Send levels can only be specified one by one for the
SELECTED DRUM SOUND : If the BD is selected, you can set the Delay/Reverb/Phaser
send level for it. You must select the Snare Drumpad in order to set its dedicated Send levels.
