TASCAM X-9 Owner’s Manual 13
External effects
The X-9 can send signals to and accept return signals
from an external effects unit.
Such a unit can be connected using the
SEND (to the
effects unit) and
RETURN (from the effects unit)
jacks.
If the effects unit is only capable of accepting a mono
input, read the documentation supplied with the
effects unit, and make the appropriate connection to
the
L effect SEND jack of the X-9.
If the effects unit is only capable of producing a
mono output, read the documentation supplied with
the effects unit, and make the appropriate connection
to the
L RETURN jack of the X-9.
NOTE
The return from the external input cannot be output
from the digital output.
To use the external effects unit
Turn the EFFECT IN knob to select the
signal that will be processed by the
effects unit: a program (
1 through 4), the
microphone signal (
MIC) or the master
mix (
MST).
Adjust the input level to the effects unit
and the output level of the signal from the effects unit
using the controls of the external unit.
Turn the effect loop on and off with the
EXT
EFFECT
key (it lights when the loop is active).
It is also possible to use an external effects unit
through the footswitches (see “Footswitch assign-
ment” on page 18 for details of this menu setting
(
08Ft))).
TIP
For a strange effect, you can send and return the left
channel of a program through one effects unit, and the
right channel of the same program through another
effects unit with different settings.
