Explanation
This is a general-purpose multi-effect that transforms the sound itself, giving it an
entirely different character. You can choose from 90 types as appropriate for your
needs.
These types include single effects such as distortion or flanger, as well as a variety of
other types.
Each tone has settings for one multi-effect.
A drum kit can use six compressor units. These can be assigned to individual drum
instruments.

apply only to the specified one zone (the zone specified by Drum Kit Comp Zone).

you can make routing settings to connect IFX 1 and 2 in series or in parallel. These
