Mixer; Effects - Zoom MRS-1608 Operation Manual

Mixer

The signals from audio tracks 1 – 16, and the drum and
bass sounds (drum track/bass track) are sent to separate
mixer channels for individual adjustment of volume and
tone and to create a stereo mix.
For each track, parameters such as volume, panning, and
3-band EQ can be controlled independently.

Effects

The MRS-1608 provides two types of effects: insert
effect and send/return effect. These effects which can be
used simultaneously have the characteristics described
below.
◆ Insert effect
This effect can be inserted at one of the following three
points in the signal path.
(1) Immediately after the INPUT jack
(2) A desired channel of the mixer
(3) Immediately before the [MASTER] fader
In the default condition, position (1) (immediately after
INPUT jack) is selected.
When the setting is changed to (2), only a selected track
or drum/bass sound is processed by the effect.
When the setting is changed to (3), the final stereo mix
can be processed. This setting is suitable for processing
the signal of the entire song during mixdown.
◆ Send/return effect
This effect is internally connected to the send/return loop
of the mixer section. There are two types of send/return
effect, reverb and chorus/delay, which can be used
simultaneously.
The send level of each mixer channel adjusts the depth of
the send/return effect. Raising the send level will produce
a deeper reverb or chorus/delay effect for that channel.
