Model LR16 [Mixer functions]

The LR16 features the internal effects (reverb/
delay) processor, which allows applying ef-
fects to the mixer channel signals.

Using the internal effects processor

• Using Insert

The [INSERT] jack, as well as the AUX post
send, is used for connecting to an external
processor. Unlike the AUX send, you can ap-
ply effects to a single channel signal.

The LR16 provides the [INSERT] jacks for
mixer channels 1 through 8. Each jack is used
mainly for connecting a compressor, limiter,
equalizer, etc.

[INSERT] jack

By connecting an external effect processor to
the [INSERT] jack, you can send the channel
signal to the processor and receive the pro-
cessed signal.

The effect send signal of each channel is ad-
justed by the [EFF] control after the channel
fader. The effected (wet) signal is adjusted
using the controls in the [EFFECT TO STE-
REO], [EFFECT TO GROUP] and [EFFECT TO
AUX] sections and sent to the stereo, group
and AUX busses.

• Applying the internal effects

The following shows how to send the effected
(wet) signal from the internal effects proces-
sor to the stereo L/R buss.
