Overview
XK-6 has two stereo effects processors. When playing presets one at a time,
the two processors can be programmed as part of the preset. When the
MIDI Mode is set to “multi,” the XK-6 uses a global effects assignment
(Master Effects). The diagram below shows how the effects are integrated
into the signal path using a parallel effects send/return model, similar to a
mixing console.
The Effects Sends
On a mixing console you can control the amount of signal each channel
Sends to the effect bus. This allows each channel to be placed in a slightly
different “sonic space” which creates an airy, open sound.
XK-6 uses this basic concept, but works in a slightly different manner.
There are four effects busses: Send1-Send4. Each preset or each MIDI
channel (you determine which), can be directed to one of the four busses.
Each effect processor has four Send Amounts which allow you to set the
wet/dry mix on each of the four busses going into the effect. A setting of
0% is completely dry (no effect). A setting of 50% contains an equal mix of
affected and normal (dry) signal.
