Applying Effects to Your Vocal or Instrumental Performance
You can apply a variety of effects (acoustical processing) to
your vocal or instrumental performance.
For example, you can apply echo to your vocal, or apply
distortion to the sound of your electric guitar.
The CD-2 provides a variety of preset patches that are suitable
for different instruments, and these are organized by category
into three groups. Use the effect patch that’s appropriate for
your instrument and situation.
Page 88, “Effect Patch List”
DYNAMICS group: For various instruments.
VOCAL group: For vocal/various instruments.
GUITAR/BASS group: For guitar/bass/guitar + vocal.
MEMO
You can freely select effects regardless of the group.
Effects will not be applied to the instrument or audio
source connected to the LINE IN jacks.
You can’t use an effect simultaneously with the
Mastering Effects (Page 49).
Verifying which effects patch is currently selected
The patch that appears first when you press [EFFECT] is
the currently selected patch. After noting the name of the
patch, press [EXIT] to return to the original readout.
The following effect patches allow you to simultaneously
apply different effects to a guitar and a microphone.
When using these patches, set the “Ext MIC1/2 Pan”
parameter to “L/R” ( Page 39). Then connect a guitar
to the GUITAR jack and a mic to the MIC 2 jack.
