Input; Output; Effect Parameters - Tascam DM-24 Effects Manual

6 – TASCAM effects
The general effects provided within the DM-24 as
described in "Internal Effects on the DM-24" on
page 3 may be used either as in-line inserted effects,
or as part of an effect loop, using aux send and
returns.
Common parameters
There are three parameters on the top row of the
screen for all of these effects, using PODs 2, 3 and 4.

INPUT

stands for input level. The input level of the
signal fed to the effect is adjusted using this control.
MIX
is the wet/dry balance of the output. When set
to 0%, the output signal is composed totally of the
original signal, and at 100%, it is completely the
effect signal.

There are no hard and fast rules as to how these
effects can be used, but on the whole, any effect
where there is a wet/dry level is suitable for use
within effect loops, and the others are suitable for use
as insert processors.
NOTE
There is a slight unavoidable processing delay on some
effects. If you are using the effect as an insert, you
should probably keep this setting at 100%.

OUTPUT

The output level from the effect can be
adjusted from Off , and then (in 5 dB steps): from
–140 dB to –60 dB, (in 1 dB steps) from –60 dB to
–20 dB and (in 0.1 dB steps) from –20 dB to 0 dB.
