Chapter 14 – Working with Effects
The Philosophy – how it works
The SX-1 has four slots in which to load effects, 
named quadrants. Each quadrant is capable of load-
ing any of the effects that come with the SX-1. The 
list of included effects includes delays, choruses, 
compressors, distortion, microphone and speaker 
simulation and reverb. In most cases the SX-1 has the 
ability to run four discreet versions of any of these 
plugins, reverb being the most obvious exception 
(you can run two TC Reverbs at once, along with two 
other plugins of your choice).
Each effect comes with presets that allow you to use 
them more easily, and these presets can be recalled at 
any time. Double-clicking on a preset in the list will 
load that effect’s parent into the current quadrant, 
which means that double-clicking on the 
Metallic Tone
preset will automatically load the Flanger plugin. 
All of the parameters for the effects are available for 
automation, both in real time as well as being drawn 
onscreen. 
VGA Effects Screens
From the
MAIN DISPLAY MODES
section, press
EFFECTS
. This takes you to the main VGA effects
control screen. From here you can assign effects to 
one of the four effect busses, save and recall effects 
to the effects library feature, and change individual 
effect parameters (individual effect algorithms are 
covered in the next chapter).
