MR-8HD/CD Owner’s Manual (Using effects)
During recording, you can apply external effects to a sound source connected to an input con-
nector in the [
INPUT A ] channel.
The [ INPUT A ] channel has the [ INSERT ] connector (phone jack). You can connects an external
effect unit (typically, a compressor/limiter) to this connector using a Y-cable, as shown below.

Input Output
The source (dry) signal fed to the [ INPUT A ] channel is sent to the external effect
unit connected to the [ INSERT ] connector and the wet (effect) signal returns to
the [ INPUT A ] channel. Thus, you can apply effects to the " INPUT A " signal by
connecting an external effect unit.
See the manual of your effect unit for details about how to use it.
A Y-cable is not supplied with the MR-8HD/CD, therefore, purchase an appro-
priate Y-cable available in the market.
