MR16 Owner’s Manual (Using effects)
During recording, you can apply external effects to a sound source connected to an input con-
nector in the [INPUT A] channel.
The [INPUT A] channel has the [INSERT] connector (phone jack). You can connects an external
effect unit (typically, a compressor/limiter) to this connector using a Y-cable, as shown below.

The source (dry) signal fed to the [INPUT A] channel is sent to the external effect unit
connected to the [INSERT] connector and the wet (effect) signal returns to the [INPUT A]
channel. Thus, you can apply effects to the "INPUT A" signal by connecting an external
effect unit.
See the manual of your effect unit for details about how to use it.
A Y-cable is not supplied with the MR16, therefore, purchase an appropriate Y-cable
available in the market.

Using external effects for recording
<Hint>: The unit provides two pairs of the [AUX OUT] connectors. During mixdown, you
can apply an effect to the desired tracks by connecting an external effect unit to the
[AUX OUT] connectors. For details about how to use the [AUX OUT] connectors, see "Ap-
plication examples" on page 149.
