Insert Effects - Korg kronos Operation Manual

Insert effects

Continuing from the above:
1. Go to the Combination P8: Insert Effect– Insert FX
page.
2. Choose the effect type that you want to use for each
insert effect IFX1–12.
Press the popup button, and choose an effect from the
nine categories.
3. Press the On/Off button to turn on the insert effect.
Each time you press the button, the insert effect will be
switched on/off. When Off, the result will be the same as
when 000: No Effect is selected. The input sound will be
output without change.
4. Make Chain settings.
If the Chain check box is checked, the insert effect will
be connected in series.
Make settings for Pan (CC#8), "Bus Sel. (Bus Select),"
"Send 1," "Send 2," REC Bus and "Ctrl Bus" for the
sound after it has passed through the insert effects.
If you've specified a chain, the settings that follow the
last IFX in the chain will be valid (except for "Ctrl Bus").
Pan: Sets the pan.
Bus Sel. (Bus Select): Specifies the output destination.
Normally you will set this to L/R. If you wish to send the
sound that has passed through the insert effects to
AUDIO OUTPUT (INDIVIDUAL) 1–4, select 1–4, 1/2,
or 3/4.
Send 1, Send 2: Sets the send levels to the master effects.
For this example, set this to 127.
Ctrl Bus: The FX Control Buses lets you create effects
"sidechains." Sidechains let you control an effect with
one audio signal (the sidechain), while the effect
processes a completely different audio signal. This is
convenient for use with vocoders, compressors and
limiters, gates, etc. For more information, see "FX
Control Buses" on page 862 of the Parameter Guide.
REC Bus: The IFX output will go to the REC bus. In the
P0– Audio Input/Sampling page, you can set the
Sampling Setup Source Bus to a REC bus, and sample
the signal that is sent to the REC bus. Use this if you want
to sample only the sound of an audio input source being
processed by an insert effect (and not sample the sound of
the oscillator output). You can also use this if you want to
sample only a specific timbre. Alternatively, the direct
sound from the audio inputs can be mixed with the sound

processed by an insert effect, sent to a REC bus, and
sampled.
Note: In Sequencer mode, you can also choose a REC bus
as the REC Source for each track in the P0– Audio Track
Mixer page, so that the signals sent to the REC bus(es)
can be recorded to the disk.
You can use MIDI to control dynamic modulation
(Dmod) for each effect, the post-IFX pan (CC#8), and
Send 1 and Send 2.
An asterisk "*" is shown at the right of Ch01–Ch16 for
the channel number of tracks routed to IFX. If you've
routed multiple tracks that have differing MIDI channel
settings, this specifies the channel on which they will be
controlled.
parameters.
For more details, see step 6 under "Using effects in
Programs," beginning on page 214.
You can control these effects via MIDI on the "Ctrl Ch."
The specified MIDI channel will control dynamic
modulation (Dmod) for the Master and Total Effects.
