Source Configs - ENSONIQ DP/4 Musician's Manual

Section 2 - Getting Started
1 Source Configs

The 1 Source Config arranges the DP / 4 as one very powerful multi-effects processor, using all four
units to process the same input signal. Two possible 1 Source Configs are shown below:

the first example, the signal present at Input 1 will be fed as a mono signal to all four units. In
the second, the signals present at Inputs 1 and 2 will be fed to all four units as a stereo signal.
(Remember, a single source can be mono or stereo.)
How the signal is distributed among the four units (the internal "patching" between A, B, C, and
D) is determined by the setting of the various Config parameters. See "Signal Routing Between
Units" later in this discussion for a look at some of the possibilities.
The 1 Source Config is useful for:
• processing a single instrument, such as a guitar or keyboard;
• creating a chain of high quality effects, such as when processing a vocal or other critical
sound.
In Select Mode, when a 1 Source Config Preset is selected, the display shows:

Symbols showing
routing between units
The abbreviations on the lower line tell you what kind of effect is loaded into each of the four
units (A, B, C, and D). The symbols between them tell you how those units are interconnected.
The meaning of these symbols is discussed later in this section.
