Effects channels
As you might have noticed, there are four extra channels available beneath the input channels. These are
return channels for the Engineer and BassCreator effects.
Since the BassCreator and Engineer are stereo effects, all routing towards the effect channels must be done in
stereo as well. You can use the large nodes between the routing matrix and input effects for this purpose. Just
like the mono-routed nodes, use the right mouse button to adjust the gain of a specific node.
You can route multiple inputs to the Engineer and BassCreator; the inputs will summed before they’re
processed by the algorithms and will come out merged. Use the stereo-node to the right of the Engineer effect
button to route its signal to the BassCreator effect.
Routing your inputs towards the effects channel doesn’t prevent you from using the unmodified signal
elsewhere: You can still route the unmodified version of the signal to a different target within the matrix.
