A More Complex Studio - Kurzweil K2600 Musician's Manual

Basic Effects Mode
A Tour of Effects Mode
In this studio, Output A is carrying the Mix, that is, the combination of the outputs of the four
FXBuses (only one of which is in use) and the Aux bus. Output B is carrying FXBus1, which is
the signal after it passes through the delay on FXBus1, but before it gets to the reverb on the Aux
bus. The other outputs are carrying no signal.
Note: If youÕre using the Mix audio outputs, keep in mind they carry the summed signals of audio
outputs A through D. Normally you would assign each of the audio outputs differently. In the example
above, you might set Output B to Off, or Output A to AuxFx, to avoid applying the FXBus1 effect to the
entire program.
HereÕs a diagram of what this studio looks like:
