A diverse array of connectors
● The CDX-1 provides four type of input jacks. Since a high impedance phone jack
(GUITAR/BASS) is also provided, a guitar or bass can be connected directly.
● RCA phone type MASTER jacks (stereo) are provided.
● Both coaxial type and optical type digital I/O connectors are provided, allowing
digital connections to audio devices (e.g., CD players, DAT recorders, MD
recorders).
● MIDI connectors (IN, OUT/THRU) are provided. You can synchronize the
performance with an external MIDI sequencer, or play the rhythm guide (p. 116)
on an external MIDI sound module.

Digital audio workstation
All processes are fully digital
In addition to a digital mixer and digital disc recorder, the CDX-1 contains two
digital effects processors.
Bounce-recording (p. 125), effect processing, mixdown (p. 133), and completing your
original CD since a CD-R/RW drive is built in, all processes of the music production
process including editing, are performed in full-digital form, preventing any loss of
audio signal quality.
Two versatile digital effects processors
The CDX-1 contains two types of effect unit. One type is for recording (insert effect;
p. 141) and the other type is independent send/return effects (loop effect; p. 145).
These two types can be used simultaneously. This means that the CDX-1 is all you
need to produce a sophisticated song without using external effect devices.
A variety of simulations and effects are provided as insert effects, including amp
simulations generated using COSM technology. In addition to effects for guitar,
numerous multi-effects for vocals or keyboard are also provided.
As loop effects, you can use a broad range of spatial-type effects in stereo, including
chorus, delay, and reverb effects that are indispensable for mixdown (p. 133).
By using insert effects and loop effects simultaneously, you can perform all effect
processing at once—from creative sound-making to placement in the sound field.
Undo/Redo function
The Undo/Redo function lets you cancel the results of an editing and a recording
mistake.

Quick movement to a point
You can assign a marker to a desired location (point). If you assign markers to
locations such as the end of the opening or the beginning of a solo, you will be able
to move instantly to the point where you wish to begin listening.
