“Reverb” is short for “reverberation” the sound produced
by many short echoes off the walls of rooms, etc.
Turning the reverb on and off
Press and hold the SHIFT key and press the REVERB key
to turn the reverb on (the indicator lights) and off (the indi-

Using the reverb
When the reverb is on, the mixer EFFECT SEND controls
and the EFFECT RETURN control affect the amount of
signal sent to the internal reverb from the tracks, and
returned from the internal reverb unit to the stereo mix.
When the reverb is turned off, the mixer EFFECT SEND
controls and the EFFECT RETURN control affect the
amount of signal sent to the SEND jack from the tracks,
and returned to the stereo mix via the RETURN jacks.
