Chapter 10: Using Effects
ANDROMEDA A6 REFERENCE MANUAL 205
MOD page
Soft button
8 brings you to the MOD page. As with any of the other modulation
options on the A6, you can use any of the 79 modulation sources to increase or
decrease the level of the destinations, which are the inputs to the digital effects:
DFX SEND LEFT
DFX SEND RIGHT
DFX SEND L&R
DFX PAN
Note that modulating these will have no effect if that parameter doesn’t exist in the
particular configuration. For example, there is no PAN in the Large Hall
configuration. Single Configurations are fed by a mix of the Left and Right digital
effects busses, so their input level may be controlled by modulating DFX SEND L&R;
there will be little effect if you modulate only the Left or Right send.
Note that if you’ve edited an effect, changing to a new Program or Mix without first
pressing the
STORE button will result in the loss of changes. If you want to hear what
the effect sounded like before your changes, the
COMPARE button will work for
Distortions and Effects as well.
EDITING DIGITAL EFFECTS
A Configuration is made up of one or more effects. Each of the Programs and Mixes
of the Andromeda contains it own Digital Effects Configuration. When you want to
create your own effect from scratch, the first thing you must decide is which
Configuration Type you wish to use.
TO SELECT A DIGITAL EFFECTS CONFIGURATION TYPE:
1. Enter Digital Effects Edit mode by pressing the DIGITAL EFFECTS CONFIG button on
the top panel. The
CONFIG page will be displayed.
2. Turn soft knob
8 to select one of the 28 types with the TYPE parameter.
The abbreviated name of the effects will show in the display above the knob; when
you stop on one for a moment, the entire configuration will be displayed with its full
name.
After you’ve adjusted the send and output levels of the effect, you can then change
the parameters of each effect block, just as you can on any external effect processor.
That’s all there is to it. Now you can start editing the effect’s parameters, and having
some real fun!
For information on the individual configurations, see page 211.
Remember: If you decide you want to select a different Program, you can always do
so by pressing one of the Program keys. However, if you select another Program
after making changes and without storing the Program back into memory, the
changes you have made will be lost.
