Chapter 8 Using the internal effects

Applying reverb as you record (Loop)

Here we will explain how an effect can be applied to the input source of INPUT 1, and the direct
sound and effect sound recorded in stereo on tracks 1 and 2. This is convenient when you wish to
record a vocal with reverb applied, etc. In this case, the signal flow will be as follows.

4. Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial. For this example, select "PstFade" so that the channel faders will

ed, the BUSS Sel, BUSS Level, and BUSS Pan/BUSS Bal parameters will not be available.
