CHAPTER 7
NOTE:
If you have installed the optional AIEB1 board (I/O expansion board), be aware that effects
are
not
applied to signals directed to the analog assignable outputs (although they
are
applied to the signals to the DIGITAL and OPTICAL connectors).
USING SCENES
There is only one way to preserve the effect assignments and parameter settings that
you make with the EFFECT SETUP buttons: you must store these into scenes. If you
want to build a song that always starts out with the same setup, you must store this
setup into the top scene.
Note also that it is not possible to use the EFFECT SETUP functions to change as-
signments or parameter values while recording is in progress. If you want to record
a song that changes from one effects setup to another, you must store these setups
into separate scenes, and recall the scenes while recording the song.
If you do not store a top scene for a song, the effect assignments and parameter val-
ues for that song will automatically reset to their defaults when power first comes on,
and whenever you switch into that song from another song.
Example
You want to build a song that begins with the PHASER, 1DELAY , and FLANGER
effects. At measure 20, you want the PHASER effect to change to a PLATE effect, and
you want to the 1DELAY effect to change its sound (by changing its LOWGAIN pa-
rameter value from 0 to +12.
What to Do:
Set up two scenes with the following effect settings.
TOP SCENE: SETUP1 = PHASER
SETUP2 = 1DELAY (with LOWGAIN set to +00)
SETUP3 = FLANGER
SCENE B: SETUP1 = PLATE
SETUP2 = 1DELAY (with LOWGAIN set to +12)
SETUP3 = FLANGER
After setting up these scenes, start the sequencer in REC mode, and then press the
Scene [B] button briefly when the song position reaches 20:1.
Use these knob functions to control the
level through each block.
Use these buttons to select and set up the
effect for each block.
