Adding Effects
You can use the REALTIME CONTROL knobs to edit up to four
of the most important parameters, which have been pre-selected
for each type of Reverb. When you enter the MFX 1–3 screen, the
indicator at the right of the Realtime Control knobs will go out,
and the Realtime Control knobs can be used to edit the MFX
parameters. If you once again press the button located at the
right of the Realtime Control knobs so the indicator is lit, the
knobs will control their original functions. When you exit the
MFX 1–3 screen, the indicator will automatically return to its
previous lit state.
Mastering Effect
This is a stereo compressor (limiter) that is applied to the final
output of the Fantom-S. It has independent high, mid, and low
ranges. Independently for the high-frequency, mid-frequency, and
low-frequency regions, this compresses any sounds that exceed the
specified level, making the volume more consistent. When mixing
down to MD, or DAT, or when you procedure your own original
audio CD, this lets you master at an optimized level.
* Mastering effect settings apply to the entire Fantom-S. These settings
are not for individual patches or performances.
* The mastering effect is applied to the sound that is output from the
OUTPUT A (MIX) jacks. It will not be applied to the sound that is
output from the OUTPUT B jacks.
