The FX Return Parameter View Screen
The FX return channels’ Parameter View feature lets you view, and adjust the value of,
the currently selected parameter for all of the FX return channels at once.
At the bottom of the Parameter View screen are four tabbed layers on which you’ll find
an F button for each of the parameters that can be shown using Parameter View. To
reveal a parameter on a layer that’s hidden, press PAGE until the layer appears.
The Eight Aux Send Controls in Parameter View
The Parameter View screen can’t fit all eight FX return channel Aux send controls
onscreen at the same time. You can press
or
, or click either arrow with your
mouse, to scroll through the Aux send control parameters for each of the eight Aux
busses. At the top of the PRM.V section of the display, you’ll see the name of the
currently displayed Aux send
.
Routing Effects to Tracks
You can route an FX return channel’s output to a pair of tracks, or a single track, to
record the effect, by itself or mixed in with the signal(s) it’s processing. The FX return
channel’s fader—and FADER parameter—set the effect’s recording level.
Each FX return channel’s stereo output appears during routing as a single connection,
with a single virtual wire you can connected to a pair of linked tracks. If you route an FX
return channel to a single track, the effect is recorded as a mono signal containing both
its left and right sides.
To activate Parameter View, press F6 (PRM.V) from an FX return channel’s main CH
EDIT screen. F6 (PRM.V) is available only when the currently selected parameter can
be displayed in Parameter View. The F2 (Surrnd) button is active only when the
UTILITY menu’s SURROUND MIX Sw parameter (Page 321) is turned on.
To return to the main FX return CH EDIT screen, press F6 (CH.V).
If you edit a parameter while in Parameter View, its channel automatically becomes the
currently selected channel.
You can add an effect to tracks you’re bouncing by routing its FX return channel’s
output to your bounce destination track or track pair—see Page 197.
In the following sections, we describe how to route an FX return channel’s stereo
output to a pair of tracks, the most common scenario. You can use the same steps to
route an effect in mono to a single, unlinked track.
