10.9 EDITING THE FX
Select the FX track for editing by pressing the
[FX]
key. The FX track controls Analog Rytm internal send
effects (Delay and Reverb) and master effects (Distortion and Compression). Editing the FX track is similar
to editing the Sounds of the drum tracks. The PARAMETER pages contain all FX parameters.
There are five PARAMETER pages for the FX track. Access the PARAMETER pages by pressing one of the
[PARAMETER]
keys. Use the
DATA ENTRY
knobs
A-H
to change the parameters. The first two, Delay and
Reverb, are send effects: their parameters are set on the FX track, but their incoming signals are set on the
DEL and REV send parameters on the AMP page of each individual drum track. The following two, Distor-
tion and Compressor, are master effects: they condition all sounds with distortion or compression. The last
page is the dedicated FX track LFO, with which you can temper any of the parameters on the FX track with
a custom low-frequency oscillation along one of seven possible waveforms, enabling - to name but one ex-
ample - tidal modulation of sound distortion. For complete explanations of the parameters on the FX track,
please see “APPENDIX B: FX TRACK PARAMETERS” on page 73.
DELAY
controls the character, reverb send and volume of the delay send effect.
REVERB
controls the character and volume of the reverb send effect.
DISTORTION
controls the amount and character of distortion applied.
COMPRESSOR
controls the behavior, volume and dry/wet mix of sound compression.
