Setting Up The Effects Rack - Midas PRO SERIES Owner's Manual

Setting up the effects rack

Setting up the effects rack
The GUI's Effects screen contains a virtual eight-unit rack.
You can have a maximum of eight effects units in the rack,
the number being dependent on configuration. Each unit
can contain any combination of the effects listed in the
Change Device Type window. (The PRO3 only has up to
six effects units.)
The assignable controls panel (shown in the Delay
diagram below) is common to all effects, and lets you control
effect parameters via the equivalent panel on the control
surface (master bay).
Delay — provides simple delay
line-based effects. Delay times can
be specified manually or you can use
the 'tempo-tap' button. It has a
three-mode delay algorithm: one
delay tap (mono or stereo
processing); dual - two delay lines
(stereo inset only); and ping-pong -
two delay lines with cross feedback.
DN780 — is a reverberation device
that emulates the Klark Teknik
DN780 Digital Reverberator/
Processor unit and lets you create
unique acoustic environments of
virtually any type.
Flanger — has one or, if configured
as stereo, two tap delay lines. One
tap is fixed and the other tap
position is modulated to provide
'thru-zero' flanging or single tap
modulation when 'thru-zero' is off.
Phaser — has one, or if configured
for dual operation, two stereo
phasers connected in serial or
parallel, according to mode setting.
Pitch Shifter — has two
independent channels that can
independently shift the pitch of
signals up or down to correct poor
pitching or generate harmonies. The
pitch change can also be modulated
as an effect.
SQ1 Dynamics — is an emulation
of the Klark Teknik Square ONE
Dynamics, which is an 8-channel
analogue dynamics processor. Used
for the precise manipulation of
compression parameters, it also
includes gating for creative and
corrective applications, and channel
linking for stereo/multi-channel
operation.
