ASSIGNING EFFECTS TO INDIVIDUAL KEYGROUPS
It is also possible to send individual keygroups in a program to the effects. This is of particular
use in drums and percussion programs. This is done in EDIT SINGLE or EDIT MULTI in the
KEYGROUP page:
The and parameters allow you to send individual keygroups
to the effects by overriding the main program’s effects routing. The default will be PRG (i.e. the
routing is using the program’s effects buss selection) but you may also select OFF (i.e. the
selected keygroup is not routed to the effects), FX1, FX2, RV3 or RV4. The parameter
allows you to set the amount of effect for each keygroup. In this way, you can, for example,
send individual drums in different amounts to the effects. Furthermore, each drum could be
routed to a different effect (i.e. bass drum to a tight gated reverb, snare to a large hall, toms to a
medium hall, etc.).
To set this, select the keygroup in the field (or press and hold
the EDIT key and play the appropriate note) and route that keygroup as appropriate and set a
suitable level.
