Using external effects

With all of the EQ, Dynamics and Effect processing avail-

able within the 01X itself, you can do all your recording

and mixing without ever having the need for an external

effect unit. Still you may have a favorite reverb, delay or

other effect device that you’d love to patch into the system.

Here’s how to do it:

Operation

q Connect the STEREO/AUX OUT jacks to the inputs on

your effect unit (Fig. 1).

If the effect unit has only one input, use just one of the

outputs on the 01X, or use a Y-adaptor to sum the ste-

reo signals to mono (Fig. 2).

If your effect device has digital inputs you may want to

use these instead (to avoid sound degradation). Con-

nect the DIGITAL STEREO OUT jack on the 01X to

the digital input on the device (Fig. 3).

w Connect the output(s) of the effect unit to the MIC/

LINE input(s) on the 01X.

Again, if you are using a digital effect device, connect

the digital output on the device to the DIGITAL STE-

REO IN jack on the 01X.

e Route the desired channel(s) for applying effects to

AUX 1 or 2.

You should also set the send levels (see page 100).

r Route AUX 1 or 2 to the appropriate output(s)—DIGI-

TAL STEREO or STEREO/AUX in the OUTPUT

PATCH page of the UTILITY mode (see page 91).

• Make sure that the input channels from the effect unit are NOT

routed to AUX 1 or 2! Feedback may result.

t Set the levels of the input channels.
