Effects; Effect Types - Korg Zero8 Owner's Manual

5. Effects

The ZERO8 provides three independent effect processors: a Channel Effect
which is used by inserting it into a mixer channel, a Send Effect which is
applied to the sound sent by the send level knob of each mixer channel,
and a Master Effect which is applied to the final stage of the master bus. To
access the setting pages for each of these effects, press the CHANNEL,
SEND, or MASTER buttons in the ZERO FX section.
Channel Effect
The channel effect is used by inserting it into a mixer channel, where it will
process only the audio input of that channel.
To select the channel effect, press the CHANNEL button of the ZERO FX
section to access the channel effect page. When the channel effect page is
displayed, you can select the channel to which the effect will be applied.
TIP: The page that appears in the display will depend on the effect
program.
Send Effect
This is a send/return type effect processor, which is applied to the sound
sent by the send level knob of each mixer channel.
To select the send effect, press the SEND button of the ZERO FX section to
access the send effect page.
TIP: The page that appears in the display will depend on the effect
program.
Master Effect
The master effect is applied at the final stage to the overall mixed sound.
To select the master effect, press the MASTER button of the ZERO FX sec-
tion to access the master effect page.
TIP: The page that appears in the display will depend on the effect
program.

Effect types

The effect setting page for each effect processor will appear as one of the
following five types, depending on the effect program that is selected.
1: Touch effect 1 (eight-bar type)
This is an eight-bar type effect program page that you can control by draw-
ing in the touch area in the lower part of the page. Use your finger to
"draw" the gain curve for each band of the 8BAND EQ.
2: Touch effect 2 (filter type)
This is a filter-type effect program page where you can control the cutoff
frequency by sliding your finger horizontally in the touch area in the lower
part of the page. You can control the resonance by sliding your finger in the
direction of the Y-axis.
