Routing - Korg KROSS Parameter Manual

Effect Guide

Routing

The two master effects MFX1 and MFX2 are available in any
mode.
The Send1 and Send2 parameters specify the input routing to mas-
ter effects MFX1 and MFX2 respectively.
You can adjust the master effect send levels for each timbre/track.
For example, you can make settings such as applying reverb
deeply to the piano sound, lightly to the strings, and not at all to
the bass sound.
If you're using insert effects, use the post-IFX "Send1" and
"Send2" to adjust the send amounts.
Program mode
Use the "OSC1 Send1," "OSC1 Send2," "OSC2 Send1," and
"OSC2 Send2" parameters or the "Send1" and "Send2" parame-
ters for the post-IFX1–5 signals, to set the Master Effect send
level.
If you have set "Bus" to L/R or Off, "OSC1 Send1," "OSC1
Send2," "OSC2 Send1," and "OSC2 Send2" (see page 59) are
effective. These parameters can be set for oscillators 1 and 2 indi-
vidually.
If you have set "Bus" to IFX1–IFX5, "Send1" and "Send2" for the
post-IFX1–5 signals are effective. If you are using the Insert
Effects in chain (series), the "Send1" and "Send2" parameters for
the post-IFX (last IFX) are effective. (see "Mixer" on page 212)
Send1 responds to CC#93 and Send2 responds to CC#91 on
the global MIDI channel (G–MIDI> BASIC). At this time,
the actual send level uses the value of the Send 1 and 2
settings for Oscillators 1 and 2, multiplied by the Send 1 and
2 values received via MIDI.
If you have selected "Drums" for "OSC" of a Program, the
"DKIT-SET" (see page 59) becomes available.
If you turn on this, "Send1" and "Send2" levels for each key of the
selected DrumKit become effective.
If "Bus" (GLOBAL DRUMKIT> VOICE) is set to L/R or Off for
a drum instrument key, "Send1 (to MFX1)" and
"Send2(toMFX2)" (GLOBAL DRUMKIT> VOICE) become
effective. If "Bus" is set to IFX1–5, the post-IFX1–5 "Send1" and
"Send2" (P–FX ROUTING> MIXER) become effective.
If this is off, "OSC1 Send1," "OSC1 Send2," "OSC2 Send1," and
"OSC2 Send2" (P–FX ROUTING> SEND) , and the post IFX1–5
"Send1" and "Send2" (P–FX ROUTING> MIXER) will be valid
for all drum instruments, in the same way as when "OSC (Osclla-
tor Mode)" is Single or Double.
Combination and Sequencer modes
Use "Send1" and "Send"2 (ROUTING> SEND) for timbres
(Combination) and tracks (Sequencer) to set the Send1 and 2 lev-
els for each timbre and track. As with Program mode, if "Bus" is
set to L/R or Off, "Send1" and "Send2" become effective.
The actual levels use these Send1 and 2 level values, multiplied by
the send level values of oscillators 1 and 2.
Send level
For example if you set the program's "OSC1 Send1" to 127,
"OSC1 Send2" to 064, "OSC2 Send1" to 064, "OSC2 Send2" to
127, and the combination's "Send1" to 064 and "Send2" to 127,
the actual send levels of the combination will be as follows.
OSC1 Send1=127 (100%) *064 (50%)=064 (50%)
214
OSC1 Send2=064 (50%) *127 (100%)=064 (50%)
OSC2 Send1=064 (50%) *064 (50%)=032 (25%)
OSC2 Send2=127 (100%) *127 (100%)=127 (100%)
If IFX1–5 is selected for "Bus," use the "Send1" and "Send2"
parameters for the post-IFX signals.
"Send1" responds to CC#93, and "Send2" responds to
CC#91. If "Send1" and "Send2" for each timbre/track are
effective, the parameter will be controlled on the MIDI
channels set for the corresponding timbres and tracks. If the
"Send1" and "Send2" parameters for the post-IFX1–5 signals
are effective, they can be controlled on the MIDI channels
assigned to IFX1–5.
An example for Combination mode is given below. In the follow-
ing diagram, "Bus" is set so that Timbre 1 is routed to IFX1, Tim-
bre 2 to IFX2, Timbres 3 and 4 to IFX3, Timbres 5–16 to L/R.
In this case, use "Send1" and "Send2" for the post-IFX1 (S01:
Stereo Compressor) signal to set the send level of the Timbre 1
routed to the Master Effect. (In this example they are set to 035
and 000.)
In the same way, use "Send1" and "Send2" for the post-IFX2 sig-
nal to set the send levels of Timbres 2, and use the "Send1" and
"Send2" parameters for the post-IFX3 signal to set the send levels
of Timbres 3 and 4.
For timbres 5–16, the "Send 1" and "Send 2" settings in the
preceding illustration will be valid (in this case, the send levels
will be the program's "Send 1" and "Send 2" settings for each
oscillator multiplied by these "Send 1" and "Send" settings).
"Bus" DKit is valid if you've selected a drum track for a Timbre
(Combination) or Track (Sequencer).
If you select DKit, the "Bus" (see page 173) settings for each key
become effective, and each drum instrument sound will be routed
to the corresponding buses. At this time, the actual send levels use
these Send 1 and 2 values, multiplied by the Send1 and 2 settings
for each DrumKit key.
If a drum kit's "Bus" is set to L/R or Off, the levels will be these
"Send 1" and "Send 2" settings multiplied by the send levels you
specify in "OSC1 Send1" and "OSC1 Send2" (see page 59), just
as in other cases ("OSC" Single or Double).
If "Bus" is set to IFX1–5, use "Send1" and "Send2" for the post-
IFX signal.
