Channel Strips: FX and iPad
Drag the Mixer View left until
Channel Strips 12-16, Reverb, Delay,
iPad and the Master Fader
view. The two FX channels [Reverb
and Delay] and one iPad channel
look similar to the Channel Strips,
but function a little differently. Let's
find out how...
Channel Strips: Reverb / Delay
There are four ways in which the
Reverb and Delay channel strips
differ from the other channel strips.
First, the EQ curve is replaced
with an image of the FX in use.
Aditionally, the Pan slider
becomes a Balance slider, acting
as a stereo balance. It allows you
to adjust how much of the left
or right output signals are heard.
Touch and drag the slider left
or right to make adjustments.
Also, there are no dynamics on
FX channels, so Gain Reduction
Meters are not shown.

Finally, since these are stereo
returns, the meters are in stereo,
not mono.
You will learn how to adjust
the FX soon.
Channel Strips: iPad / Playback
This is the channel where you
control the level and EQ from the
iPad music library or any other
audio app on the iPad that supports
background audio playback.

Keep the iPad attached to the
mixer here, as playback only works
when attached to the mixer, not in
Wi-Fi mode.
Now start playback in the audio
app of your choice, then switch to
the Master Fader app to control that
source in the mix.
