SETTING PROGRAM LEVELS, PAN, FX SENDS
In the MIX page of SINGLE, you may view the programs in memory and set their level, pan, etc..
This is a convenient and quick way to adjust the levels of single programs
en masse
without
having to edit each one individually in EDIT PROGRAM. To access this, press and you
will receive the following display:
On this page you may set, from left to right across the screen:
This shows the number of the program selected in the main SINGLE page
although you may select another program or group of programs in this field.
This sets the level of the program as it appears at the left/right stereo outputs
of the CD3000XL. This would normally be used to mix the levels of different
programs and is the equivalent of a mixers fader control. It is possible to send
programs to individual outputs but, by mixing them out of the stereo outputs
by setting this parameter to 00, you remove them from the main mix. In this
way, for example, you could send individual drums to separate channels of an
external mixer for more elaborate level and tonal control whilst other
instruments appear only at the stereo outputs of the CD3000XL. In this way,
very complex mixes can be set up. Another method may be to send, say,
snare and kick to individual outputs (but take them out of the stereo mix) and
just have toms and percussion in a stereo image coming out of the main stereo
mix. In this way, you save on channels on your external mixer.
This sets the pan position of the program in the stereo outputs and the range
is L50 through MID (00) to R50.
This allows you to assign any program to one of the 8 individual outputs should
you wish to mix the program using an external mixer. The range is OFF, 1-8.
NOTE: It is possible to send individual keygroups to these outputs so the results you get may
sometimes be a little unpredictable if you are not sure of the keygroup assignments.
This sets the level of the audio appearing at the individual outputs.
This allows you to route the program to one of the four effects channels, FX1,
FX2, RV3 or RV4. You may also switch the effects routing to OFF.
This sets the effect send level. The range is 0-99.
NOTE 1: The and the parameters only function when the optional EB16 multi-
effects processor is installed.
NOTE 2: In any of the SINGLE mode’s pages, if the EB16 is installed, you may conveniently
mute them using F8 - . This will turn off all four effects channels so that you can hear the
program(s) in isolation.
