Adding width to the sound (Loop Effect)
The BR-864 features chorus, delay, and doubling (any one of
these three can be selected at any one time) as loop effects,
and includes reverb as well. Effective use of these allows you
to add greater breadth to the sound.
What is a loop effect?
Effects connected to the send and return of mixer effects are
called “loop effects.” You can adjust the depth of the effect by
changing the send level of each mixer channel (equivalent to
the tracks of the BR-864).
Since the send levels for each track are separate, you can
change the depth individually. This allows you to, for
example, have a deep reverb on the vocals and slight reverb
on the drums, or any such combination.
Opposed to insert effects (p. 33), which are applied to specific
sounds, loop effects are applied to the complete track.
* You cannot use chorus, delay, and doubling simultaneously.
Any one may be selected while loop effects are in use.
1. Press [LOOP EFFECTS].
