2. Routing
Two master effects (MFX 1 and 2) can be used in any mode
other than Sampling (if the separately sold EXB-SMPL
option is installed). If you are not using the Insert Effect in
any mode, the Master Effects send levels are determined by
the “Send Level 1/2 (MFX2)” parameters specified indepen-
dently for the oscillators (Program), timbres (Combination),
tracks (Sequencer). For example, you can apply substantial
reverberation to a piano sound assigned to the timbre and
tracks, a small amount of reverberation to the strings sound,
and no reverberation to the bass sound. If you are using the
Insert Effect, set the “S1 (Send1(MFX1))” and “S2
(Send2(MFX2))” parameters for the post-IFX signals.
2–1. Program mode
The PROG 7.1–1a MFX Send parameters “Send 1” and
“Send 2” or the PROG 7.1–2a “S1 (Send1(MFX1))” and “S2
(Send2(MFX2))” parameters that follow IFX determine the
send levels to the master effects.
The PROG 7.1–1a MFX Send “Send 1” and “Send 2” settings
are used when “BUS Select” is set to L/R or Off. Each can be
set for oscillator 1 and 2.
The PROG 7.1–2a “S1 (Send1(MFX1))” and “S2
(Send2(MFX2))” settings that follow IFX are used when
“BUS Select” is set to IFX. If the insert effect are chained
(connected in series), the “S1 (Send1(MFX1))” and “S2
(Send2(MFX2))” that follows the last-connected IFX will be
used.
If “BUS Select” is 1, 2 or 1/2, the oscillator will be directly
output to AUDIO OUTPUT (INDIVIDUAL)1, 2 (
p.162
“Individual Outputs”). Send levels 1/2 will be ignored, and
the master effects will not be applied.
Send Level 1 can be controlled by MIDI Control Change
CC#93 and Send Level 2 can be controlled by MIDI
Control Change CC#91 on global MIDI channel “MIDI
Channel” (GLOBAL 2.1–1a). At this time, the actual
send level uses the value of the Send 1 and 2 settings for
Oscillators 1 and 2, multiplied by the Send Level 1 and
2 values received via MIDI.
– Setting for drum program –
If the program “Oscillator Mode” (PROG 2.1–1a) is Drums,
the “USE DKit Setting” (PROG 7.1–1b) will be used.
If this is checked, the setting for each key of the selected
drum kit will be used. The drum instrument for a key whose
drum kit “BUS (Bus Select)” (GLOBAL 5.1–3a) parameter is
set to L/R or Off will use the “S1 (Send1(MFX1))” and “S2
(Send2(MFX2))” (GLOBAL 5.1–3a) settings. If IFX is used,
the “S1 (Send1(MFX1))” and “S2 (Send2(MFX2))” (PROG
7.1–2a) after passing through IFX will be used.
If this is not checked, the “Send 1” and “Send 2” (PROG 7.1–
1a, MFX Send) settings or the “S1 (Send1(MFX1))” and “S2
(Send2(MFX2))” (PROG 7.1–2a) settings after passing
through IFX will be used for all drum instruments. (This is
the same as when “Oscillator Mode” is Single or Double.)
2–2. Combination, Sequencer mode
Use “S1 (Send1(MFX1))” and “S2 (Send2(MFX2))” (7.1–
1(2)a) for timbres (Combination) and tracks (Sequencer) to
set the Send level for each timbre and track. As with Pro-
gram mode, if “BUS Select” is set to L/R or Off, “S1
(Send1(MFX1))” and “S2 (Send2(MFX2))” become effective.
In this case, the actual send level will be the setting of the
program (PROG 7.1–1a) used by the timbre/track multi-
plied by the send level you specify here.
– Send level –
For example, if a Program’s “OSC1 Send1” is set to 127,
“Send2” set to 064, “OSC2 Send1” set to 064, “Send2” set to
127, a Combination’s “Send1” set to 064, and “Send2” set to
127, the actual send levels of the combination are calculated
as follows:
OSC1 Send1=127 (100%)*064(50%)=064(50%)
OSC1 Send2=064 (50%)*127(100%)=064(50%)
OSC2 Send1=064 (50%)*064(50%)=032(25%)
OSC2 Send2=127 (100%)*127(100%)=127(100%)
If IFX is selected for “BUS Select”, use the “S1
(Send1(MFX1))” and “S2 (Send2(MFX2))” parameters for the
post-IFX signals.
If 1, 2 or 1/2 is selected instead, these settings are ignored
and the Master Effect is not applied.
Send Level 1 responds to MIDI Control Change CC#93,
and Send2 Level responds to MIDI Control Change
CC#91. If “Send1(MFX1)” and “Send2(MFX2)” for each
timbre/track are effective, the parameter will be con-
trolled on the MIDI channels set for the corresponding
timbres and tracks. If the “Send1(MFX1)” and
“Send2(MFX2)” parameters for the post-IFX signals are
effective, they can be controlled on the MIDI channels
assigned to IFX.
The following screens are examples in Combination mode.
The “BUS Select” setting in screen shot (1) sends timbre 1 to
IFX, and the remaining timbres to L/R. In this case, the send
levels from timbre 1 to the master effects are set by “S1
(Send1(MFX1))” and “S2 (Send2(MFX2))” after the signal
has passed through IFX: 01:St. Amp Simulation as shown in
screen shot (2). (In this example, these are set to 032 and 127
respectively.) Other timbres will use the “S1 (Send1(MFX1))”
and “S2 (Send2(MFX2))” settings shown in screen shot (1).
(At this time, the send level will be the send level of the pro-
gram oscillator multiplied by this send level.)
