If you navigate to the
Insert Preset
tab on the VGA
ROUTING
screen, you’ll see this:
The three fields for each insert show
Insert Send
,
Insert
Name
, and
Insert Receive
. The
Insert Send
field determines
where the Insert gets its input from, as the
Insert
Receive
determines where it sends its output. These
fields DO NOT determine which channel the insert is
applied to (that happens on the Mixer or Channel
pages), they only set the I/O for the Insert itself.
Here are two examples that will help to explain the
behavior of the Inserts:
External Effects Insert
With an external com-
pressor handy, plug a cable from the Aux 1 output on
the top of the SX1 to the input of your compressor,
and plug the output of the compressor to Input 1 on
the SX1’s top panel. In the
Insert Send
field, select
Analog Aux Out 1
, and in the
Insert Receive
field select
Analog Input 1
. If this Insert were inserted on Mixer
Channel 1, the result would be the following: signal
from channel 1 would be sent out the Insert (via the
Aux 1 jack) to the input of the compressor. Output
from the compressor would be returned to Analog
Input 1, and thus back to Mixer channel 1 via the
Insert Receive.
Internal Effects Insert
With the TASCAM
Delay plug-in loaded into Quadrant 1, choose Effects
Input 1-1 as the
Insert Send
. Choose Effects Output 1-1
as the
Insert Receive
. The
Insert Send
field will now dis-
play
TASCAM Delay Left
, and the
Insert Receive
field will
display
TASCAM Delay Left
as well. This means that if
Insert 1 was inserted on Mixer channel 1, the follow-
ing would happen: signal from Channel 1 would be
sent out to the TASCAM Delay input. Signal would
pass through the delay and be sent to the output of
the Delay, and then it would be returned to Mixer
Channel 1 via Insert 1’s return.
