Eect type Eect Explanation
Tone eects
Multi-eect (MFX)
This is a general-purpose multi-eect that transforms the sound itself, giving it an entirely dierent character.
You can choose from 68 types as appropriate for your needs.
These types include single eects such as distortion or anger, as well as a variety of other types. Each tone
has settings for one multi-eect.
Compressor + equalizer
(COMP+EQ)
A drum part lets you use six compressors and equalizers. Each drum instrument can be individually assigned
to these.
Although a drum kit can be assigned to each of the parts, the six sets of compressor+equalizer are available
only for one specied part (the part specied by the Drum Comp+EQ Assign setting).
Studio set eects
Equalizer (EQ)
This is an equalizer that can be applied to each part.
You can independently adjust the high, mid, and low-frequency ranges.
Chorus Chorus is an eect that adds depth and spaciousness to the sound.
Reverb Reverb is an eect that produces the reverberation that is characteristic of sounds heard in a hall.
Master compressor (Master Comp)
The compressor compresses sounds that exceed a specied volume level, making the volume more
consistent.
You can independently adjust the high, mid, and low-frequency ranges.
* The insert eect is unavailable while the master eect is being used.
Insert eect (IFX)
This is a general-purpose insert eect that can transform the sound itself, giving it a completely dierent
character.
You can choose from 78 types as appropriate for your needs.
Use this when you want to apply an eect in addition to the multi-eect.
* The master compressor is unavailable while the insert eect is being used.
System eects
Master EQ
This is an equalizer that is applied to the overall sound of the entire FA.
You can independently adjust the high, mid, and low-frequency ranges.
Total eect (TFX)
The total eect can be controlled in real time using the SOUND MODIFY knobs.
You can choose from 29 types as appropriate for your needs.
The total eect can also be applied to the sound being input from the AUDIO INPUT jack (p. 52).
