While playing your instrument, adjust the
[INPUT] control for the input(s) selected in
step 2, to adjust the input sensitivity.
The sensitivity of INPUT 1 and the built-in mic is
adjusted with the [INPUT] 1 control. The sensitivity of
INPUT 2 is adjusted with the [INPUT] 2 control.
Make adjustments so that the [PEAK] indicator in the
input section flickers slightly when you play your
instrument at its loudest volume.
The input signal level can be checked with the level meter
IN 1/IN 2 bars in the display.
The insert effect can be applied to a point immediately
after the input, to the output of any track, or immediately
before the [MASTER] fader. The insert effect actually is
a multi-effect unit that contains a number of single effects
(effect modules) such as compressor, distortion, and
delay, connected in series.
When you apply the insert effect to the input signal, you
can record the processed signal on a track. The following
steps show how to apply an insert effect suitable for
guitar/bass.
1.
Press the [INPUT SRC] key in the effect
section.
The indication “IN” (input) appears on the second line of
the display. In this condition, you can select the insert
effect position.
In the default condition of a patch, “IN” is selected. If
another setting is currently displayed, turn the dial to
select “IN”.
2.
Press the [INSERT EFFECT] key in the
effect section.
The display changes as follows. From this screen, you
can select the insert effect algorithm (combination of
effect modules used simultaneously) and patch (effect
program).
The MRS-8 has eight algorithms with multiple patch
selections for each algorithm. To use the insert effect,
select the algorithm first and then call up one of the
patches in that algorithm.
3.
Use the cursor up/down keys to select the
algorithm.
The following algorithms are available.
• CLEAN
• DIST
• ACO/BASS SIM (shown on the display as “Ac/
BsSIM”)
• BASS
These algorithms are suitable for recording guitar/bass.
• MIC
An algorithm suitable for vocals and other microphone
recordings.
