D16Xd; Using Insert Effects; D32Xd - Korg D32XD Owner's Manual

If you use a size-8 effect for insert effect 1, insert effects 2–8 will
be unavailable. Use Routing B insert effects 9–24.
If you use a size-8 effect for insert effect 8, the master and final ef-
fects will not be available. So that the master effects and final ef-
fects will be available, select the size-8 effect for Routing B insert
effect 9, and select a size-1 effect for insert effect 8.
When you make effect assignments, pay attention to the DSP
power indicator in the "Routing A" or "Routing B" tab pag-
es.
For details, refer to "Effects that can be used simultaneously"
( p.117, 118) in the reference section.

D16XD

There is enough DSP power to process "16 sizes-worth" of ef-
fect programs (for a 44.1/48 kHz song). However for a 96
kHz/24-bit song, the DSP power will process only "8 sizes-
worth" of effect programs.
A total of eleven effects can be used by insert, master, and fi-
nal effects, but since the sum of the all the effect sizes is lim-
ited to no more than 16 (for a 44.1/48 kHz song), the number
of effects that can be used simultaneously will change, de-
pending on the combination of effect sizes.
A specific amount of DSP power is allocated to the insert,
master, and final effects, and the breakdown for each variety
of effect is shown in the following table.

* For a 96 kHz/24-bit song, the maximum total size is 8.
If you use a size-8 effect for insert effect 1, insert effects 2–8 will
be unavailable.
If you use a size-4 effect for master effect 1, master effect 2 will be
unavailable.
When assigning effects, pay attention to the DSP power indi-
cator in the "EFFRouting" tab page to see how much DSP
power is available.
For details, refer to "Effects that can be used simultaneously"
( p.121) in the reference section.

1. Using insert effects

You use insert effects by inserting them into a mixer channel
to process the sound of an input source or audio track.

D32XD

You can use a maximum of 24 insert effects simultaneously.
In Routing A, you can use a total of 8 sizes-worth of insert ef-
fect if you are using the master and final effects.
Since Routing B is only for insert effects, you can use up to a
total of 16 sizes-worth of effects.

If you use a size-4 effect for insert effect 1, and a size-4 effect for
insert effect 5, you will be able to use the master and final effects,
as well as sixteen insert effects (9–24) in Routing B.

If you use size-2 effects for insert effects 1, 3, and 5, and a size-8
effect for insert effect 7, you will be able to use sixteen insert effects
(9–24) in Routing B but will not be able to use the Routing A mas-
ter effects and final effect. In such cases, you should assign the
size-8 effect to Routing B insert effect 9, and not assign an effect
to insert effect 7; this way, the master effects and final effect will
also be available.
