9.2 BUS SETTINGS
9.3 EDIT EFFECTS
194
This Edit Program section allows you to assign each individual Part to a given output bus. This
enables you to exploit the extraordinary feature of having each single Part on each single connector,
guaranteeing easier mixing procedures outside the instrument.
Another very important feature of this section is that it interacts with the effects Routing (see point
9.3 – Routing Configuration) since when a Part (and thus a Timbre) is assigned to given outputs,
and the effects (or effect) is (are) placed on the buses of the outputs concerned, you can obtain the
most widely varying Timbre
ð
effect configurations.
From the EDIT PROGRAM MENU, select field 2-BUS SETTINGS; the display will show:
containing the BUS parameter, which indicates the destination connector(s) of the Part to which
the video page refers. This parameter can be set with the following procedures:
•
MAIN STEREO: the Part is sent to the MAIN OUT [L-Mono] and [R] connectors.
•
MAIN MONO L: the Part is sent to the MAIN OUT [L-Mono] connector.
•
MAIN MONO R: the Part is sent to the MAIN OUT [R] connector.
•
AUX STEREO: the Part is sent to the AUX OUT [1] and [2] connectors.
•
AUX MONO 1: the Part is sent to the AUX OUT [1] connector.
•
AUX MONO 2: the Part is sent to the AUX OUT [2] connector
To display the video page relating to the part for which you wish to make these settings, use the
function keys.
N.B.: Equalizer will not affect the AUX outputs signal.
The OB-12 section relating to the effects for processing of the sounds is an important, useful
feature.
The instrument makes available four main types of algorithm, fully programmable and configurable
within the effects chain:
-
OVERDRIVE: 16 types of distortion effects which simulate various amplifiers brought to
saturation.
- CHORUS: algorithm capable of modulating the signal to add depth and space to the sound:
- DELAY: by adding delayed copies to the original signal, this algorithm enables you to obtain
delay and echo effects.
-
REVERB: effect capable of simulating 16 types of room and reproducing their sound
characteristics, such as the reflection and absorption of the walls.
As we have said, in addition to programming the type and characteristics of the effects, thanks to
the Effect Routing function the instrument allows selection of 11 setups relating to the configuration
of the effects within the buses which collect the signal from the sound generation section and send
it to the outputs. These setups can then in turn be configured with regard to the position of the
algorithms within the effects chain. As already described in 9.2 – Bus Settings, thanks to this
