Understanding
the
Signal
Flow
This
unit
takes
in
audio
signals
from
two types
of
input
jacks
(digital
and
analog), processes
them
using
various
internal
blocks,
and
outputs
them
through the analog and digital output
jacks.
To
make
the
most
of
this
unit,
it
is
essential that
you
have
a
firm
understanding
of
the
audio
signal
flow.
This
section provides
an
explanation
of
the internal
blocks
and
how
they
process
the input
and
output audio signals.
Block
and
structure
The audit) signal processor in this
unit
is
divided
into
two
parts, BLOCK
1\
and
BLOCK
B.
Each
of
tlwse blocks is
composed
of
an
EQ BLOCK
and
(\n
FX
(dfect)
BLOCK. Thl'
EQ
BLOCK
works
as
anl'qualizer.
The
