Operation section
Return channels 1/2
These are stereo input channels used mainly for input-
ting the return signal from internal effects 1/2. How-
ever, the input signal assignment can be changed in
the input patch section, allowing these to be used as
additional input channels.
Each of these channels is structured the same as the
input channels except for the following differences:
1
Stereo
B
No dynamics processor
C
No direct output
D
No send level from return channel 1 to AUX
bus 5
E
No send level from return channel 2 to AUX
bus 6
Tip!
Since return channels 1/2 are stereo, adjacent odd-
numbered/even-numbered signals will be assigned to
them when MIC/LINE INPUT or OPTION IN are
selected as the input signal. Also, if DIGITAL STEREO
IN is selected, both L and R signals will be assigned.
• Return channel 1 has no AUX bus 5 send level, and
return channel 2 has no AUX bus 6 send level. This is
so that the signal returned from an internal effect to
a return channel will not be sent to the same effect,
producing a loop.
• Even if other input signals are assigned to return
channels 1/2, the send level to the corresponding
AUX bus will not be available.
Recorder input patch
This section assigns input signals to the tracks of the
recorder. The following signals can be selected for
tracks 1–16.
• BUS 1–8
The output signals of buses 1–8.
• DIRECT OUT 1–8
The direct output signals of input channels 1–8.
When recording on the stereo track, the output sig-
nal of the stereo bus that has passed through the ste-
reo output channel (STEREO) will be input.
