Quick Start
Adjusting the tone (Track EQ)
“Track EQ” is an independent two-band equalizer featured
on each track that allows you to adjust the high- and low-
frequency tonal qualities separately.

* Pressing a REC TRACK button moves the cursor to the track
corresponding to the button pressed.

repeatedly to display the parameter screen, then use the
[CURSOR] and the TIME/VALUE dial to change the
setting’s value.

For more on the settings content, refer to “Track EQ
Parameter Functions” (p. 112).
5. When you have finished making the settings, press
[EXIT] (or [PAN/EQ]) to return to the Play screen.
Adding width to the sound (Loop Effect)
The BR-900CD 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-900CD).
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. 35), 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].

DLY” or “REV,” and press [ENTER].

3. Press CURSOR [ ] [ ] until “FX Type” or “Type” is
displayed, then turn the TIME/VALUE dial to select the
loop effect.
