Graphic EQ, Parametric EQ, Effects, and PREMIUM RACK
Reference Manual

• The sampled content will be erased if you record another sample, change the effect, or turn off
the power to the CL unit.
EFFECT EDIT window (when FREEZE is selected)
If the “FREEZE” effect type is selected, a PLAY button, REC button, and progress bar will
appear in the special parameter field.
1 PLAY button
2 REC button
3 Progress bar
NOTE
As an alternative to switching the effect type, you can also recall settings that use the “FREEZE”
effect type from the effect library.
Using the Premium Rack
In addition to the graphic EQ and the internal effects, the CL series provides “Premium Rack”
processors that faithfully emulate carefully selected vintage analog processors as well as
newly developed processors. The Premium Rack employs VCM technology, which models
analog circuitry on a component level to faithfully reproduce and fine-tune amazing analog
sounds.
The Premium Rack offers eight types of processors.
Using the Premium Rack
The procedure to set up the I/O patches for the rack are the same as those for the effect rack
(page 148).
NOTE
• If you are inserting a processor into a channel that handles a stereo source, assign the R channel
insert-out and insert-in to the R input and output of the processor in the same way as steps 5 and 6.
• For details on editing the parameters, refer to the next section “Editing the Premium Rack
parameters.”
• Adjust the digital gain and the processor parameters so that the signal does not reach the
overload point at the input or output stage of the processor.

STEP
1. In the Function Access Area, press the RACK button.
2. Press the PREMIUM tab in the upper part of the VIRTUAL RACK window.
3. To mount a Premium Rack in the rack, press the rack mount button for that rack in
the PREMIUM RACK field.
4. Select the processor to mount and the mounting method in the MODULE SELECT
field in the PREMIUM RACK MOUNTER window, and press the OK button.
5. Press the INPUT PATCH L button to open the CH SELECT window, and select the
input source.
6. Press the OUTPUT PATCH L button to open the CH SELECT window, and select the
insert-in of the same channel as the output destination.
7. Use the Bank Select keys in the Centralogic section to select the channel into which
you inserted the effect.
8. Press the INSERT/DIRECT OUT field in the OVERVIEW screen.
9. In the INSERT/DIRECT OUT popup window, turn on the INSERT ON/OFF button for
the channel into which you inserted the processor.
10. Adjust the processor parameters.
11. Using the fader of the channel you selected as the rack’s output destination in step
6, adjust the level as appropriate.
