Understanding the Effects

The focus of this article will be to introduce you to

the XS effects. "A picture is worth a thousand

words", some great mind said. Please refer to the

XS Reference Manual pages 15-16 for the full

graphic story on the Effects routing in the XS for

VOICE mode, PERFORMANCE mode and for MULTI

modes. This makes it very clear where the Effects

blocks are and when they are available via a block

diagram flow chart. We will try and make clear

how this impacts you using the XS to its fullest.

In VOICE mode:

There are up to 8 Elements

(Insertion A and Insertion B) that can be routed in

assigned

(see the routing as A-to-B,

B-to-A or parallel). Each Element has a signal

path to the Insertion block – they can be routed

to "ins A" to "ins B" or to neither ("thru"). The

two System Effects (Reverb and Chorus) each

have their own send levels for the entire Voice

(that is, all the Elements together). And there is

an independent RETURN level and PAN position

control for each System effect – mixing the signal

back into the main flow; and a PAN position

control. Next, the entire signal then goes on

through the Master EFFECT, the Master EQ (a 5-

band EQ) then on to the main stereo output.

An important thing to understand about these

VOICE mode effects is that the Insertion Effect

assignment can be recalled for up to 8 of the 16

Parts when a VOICE is used in a multi-timbral

setup in MULTI mode and all 4 Parts of a

PERFORMANCE plus the A/D INPUT can each recall

their own two Insertion Effects ...more on this

point in a minute. There is one A/D INPUT PART

for all of Voice mode – it can be routed to its own

two Insertion Effects.

What this means in simple terms is: An XS Voice

can be very complex in terms of how it deals with

Effects. Each component that makes up a Voice

can be routed to one or the other or both or

neither of the INSERTION processors. In the flow

chart

from

above) there are 8 Elements on the left. They are

all routed (green) to Effect A. Effect A is in

"series" with Effect B – this means the signal of

each Element goes to Insert Effect A first, then to

Insert Effect B... before it travels to the System

Effects. You see a rotary control (Send Level) for

the entire signal going to each the Chorus effect

box and one to the Reverb effect block. There is

also a rotary knob between the Chorus and

Reverb blocks. After these blocks there is a

RETURN Level and Pan position control for the

effects, then on the OUTPUT. In the column at left

is the same routing situation from the manual.

The INSERT EFFECTS are the effects that you can

control in real time – by assigning important

parameters to physical controllers like your Mod

Wheel,

Foot

the

Assignable Function buttons, etc. The INSERTION

Effect often gives the Voice its personality. The

identity/personality. They are intimately involved

with the Voice itself. The soundboard on a piano is
