Exploring the Studio Parameters

The Effects/FX Bypass button, when you are in the Studio Editor, bypasses all of the FX presets
(all of the Insert FX and the Aux FX) in the current studio, so that you can hear the signals
without processing. It does not, however, change the EQs, gains and balances, or signal
routings—those will continue to affect the signal you hear.
Exploring the Studio Parameters
We'll explore the parameters within the studio in the order in which they affect the signal path,
starting on the Input page.

Input Section

Figure 15-2
Inputs are referred to as A, B, C, and D, and correspond to the four output buses (KDFX-A
through KDFX-D) from the K2661's Program Editor. These signals can be treated as stereo pairs
or as individual mono signals. This is determined by the first parameter on an Input page, the
Mono/Stereo switch.
If this switch is set to M, then the left and right channels of the selected program output pair are
split up, and each is given its own Input page, with EQ and FXBus routings. If it is set to SP
(Stereo with Pan) or SB (Stereo with Balance), the two channels of the pair are processed in
parallel.
Selecting the Mono/Stereo mode on one input bus does not affect any of the others, and you can
have any combination of stereo and mono inputs in a studio. Therefore, there can be anywhere
from four to eight Input pages in a studio.
The Chan/Bank Up and Down buttons let you move among the Input pages.
