Understanding the Signal Flow
This unit takes in audio signals from two types of input jacks (digital and analog), processes them using various internal
blocks, and outputs them through the analog and digital output jacks. To make the most of this unit, it is essential that you
have a firm understanding of the audio signal flow. This section provides an explanation of the internal blocks and how
they process the input and output audio signals.
Block and structure
The audit) signal processor in this unit is divided into two parts, BLOCK
1\
and
BLOCK B. Each of tlwse blocks is composed of an EQ BLOCK and (\n FX (dfect)
BLOCK. Thl' EQ BLOCK works as anl'qualizer. The FX BLOCK contains a large
number of multi·dfe'cls.

The positioning of the EQ block and the rX.block is determined when editing the EQ
BLOCK by c1wosing either "Pre" or "Post" in the
I
Model parameter. In other words.
you can c1wt)se. independently within BLOCK A and BLOCK B. wether to add the
effect to the sound coming from the equalizer, or equalize the sound produced by the
effect.

It's

and
BLOCK B. Thdr pt)sitioning, the way they arc connected, is called the "structure." Set
the structure according to the kind of sound you want to make. The structlire screen
not onl\' lets vou choose the structure type (see the following chartl. but also lets you
adjust the output I"\'el for each block (represented in the chart by the MIX BLOCK).
