6 – Effects
The DM-3200 incorporates two internal effects: a TASCAM multi-purpose effect and a TC Works reverb. This 
section discusses the setup and use of these effects.
Routing the effects
As explained in “Routing” on page 47, internal effect 
inputs and outputs are treated as sources and destina-
tions for routing.
The two screens shown here are examples of how the 
internal routing is used with the internal effects.
In the 
OUTPUT
 routing screen, the Aux sends are 
selected as outputs, and the terminal destination is 
selected as one of the internal effects.
Here, Aux 5 and Aux 6 are selected as aux sends to 
effect 1 (effect 2 would be set up in the same way).
For the return, the 
INPUT
 screen is used. The source is 
set to 
EFF RTN
 (effect return) and channels 17 through 
20 are selected as effect returns.
WARNING
Since there are no dedicated effect returns, the chan-
nels used for returns also have aux feeds that may acci-
dentally be used to feed the effects being returned on 
that channel. If this is done, there will be a feedback 
loop that may damage your hearing, and your monitor-
ing equipment.
Setting up the effects
The 
EFFECT
 key brings up the effect screens, where 
the basic setup of the internal effects is done.
First, an effect is recalled from the preset library, or 
from a setting previously stored on a CF card.
When the effect setting has been recalled, it may be 
used as it is, or edited using the editing screen.
After pressing the 
EFFECT
 key, pressing the POD 2 
switch brings up the effect 1 library, for managing 
the library effects for the first effect loop, and press-
ing the POD 4 switch brings up the effect 2 library, 
for managing the other effect loop (shown in Figure 
6.2, Effect library screen belo
w):
