EFFECTS page
Make built-in effects settings on this page.
NOTE
The EFFECTS page settings are retained even when the unit
is turned off.
1 Dynamics effect tab
Click the tab of the dynamics effect that you want to use to
show its settings tab.
Options
COMPRESSOR, NOISE SUPPRESSOR, DE-ESSER, EXCITER,
EQ, LIMITER/LOW CUT
For details about each dynamics effect, see “Dynamics
effects” on page 20.
2 Parameter knobs
Use the mouse to click and drag a parameter knob up or
down to adjust it.
The values of adjusted parameters are shown above their
knobs.
For details about each effect parameter, see “Dynamics
effects” on page 20 and “Send effect” on page 22.
3 Dynamics effect on/off button and indicator
Click the name or indicator of the dynamics effect that is
currently being shown to turn it on or off.
When a dynamics effect is on its name lights.
NOTE
• With one exception explained below, only one dynamics
effect can be used at a time. For this reason, if you turn on
a different dynamics effect, the dynamics effect that you
are currently using will automatically be turned off. The
exception, however, is that when the sampling frequency is
44.1 kHz or 48 kHz, both the LIMITER and LOW CUT effects
on the LIMITER/LOW CUT page can be used at the same
time. When using these two effects at the same time, the
send effect cannot be used.
• Turning the dynamics effect on/off on this page is linked to
the dynamics effect on/off setting on the MIXER page.
• Turning it on will not be possible when an effect cannot be
used because of sampling frequency conditions.
4 Reverb type switch
This unit's REVERB effect has five types.
Click the name of a reverb type to use it. The selected reverb
type name will light.
For details about each parameter, see “Send effect” on page
22.
5 Send effect on/off button and indicator
Click the name or indicator of the send effect (reverb) that is
currently being shown to turn it on or off.
When the send effect is on, its name lights.
NOTE
• Turning the send effect on/off on this page is linked to the
send effect on/off setting on the MIXER page.
• Turning it on will not be possible when an effect cannot be
used because of sampling frequency conditions.
Note about restrictions on the use of built-in
effects
The number of built-in effects that can be used is restricted
according to the sampling frequency.
• When set to 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz, one dynamics effect and
one send effect each can be used. The one exception is that
the LIMITER and LOW CUT dynamics effects on the LIMITER/
LOW CUT tab can also both be used at the same time. When
using these two effects at the same time, the send effect
cannot be used.
• When the sampling frequency is 88.2 kHz or 96 kHz, only
one type of effect (either dynamics or send) can be used.
(Turning an effect on will automatically turn off in the other
effect that is on.)
• When the sampling frequency is 176.4 kHz or 192 kHz, no
effects can be used.
Dynamics effects
8 Compressor
When the input volume exceeds the THRESHOLD level, the input
volume is compressed, reducing output volume variation.
For example, by reducing the levels of sounds that are high
level, lower level sounds become relatively louder, creating
a more even volume level throughout and a more sustained
sound.
In the COMPRESSOR tab, the three meters show the level of the
signal input to the compressor (INPUT), the level of the signal
output from the compressor (OUTPUT) and the gain reduction
caused by the compressor (GR).
THRESHOLD knob
Sets the threshold level that will cause the effect to start.
Range: −32 dB–0 dB (default: −12 dB)
RATIO knob
Sets the compression ratio for the input volume.
Turning it right raises the compression ratio, increasing
the amount of compression.
Range: 1.0:1–inf:1 (default: 2.0:1)
ATTACK knob
Sets the amount of time until the compression reaches
the compression RATIO setting after the input volume
exceeds the threshold.
Range: 2 ms–200 ms (default: 20 ms)
