Built-In Effect Processing

TASCAM 788 Operational Tutorial  •  8/2000 Edition  

When EFFECT 1 is being used as a Multi-Effect
Processor, it is assigned to an insert on a channel on
the main mixer.  If you are recording multiple tracks
with the same processing, you may want to "associate" 
the processor with an input by pressing EFFECT 1 and 
INPUT (A, B, C or D).  This will automatically move 
EFFECT 1 through the mixer with the associated input.
This will save a lot of routing during the recording 
process.  Keep in mind that this only works if the input
is assigned to one channel only, and it will disengage 
if the input is assigned to the submixer.

Assigning effect routing can be done totally from the 
surface of the 788.  Simply press the button of the effect 
processor, and the button for the destination.  (The source
and destination buttons must be pressed simultaneously.)  

This routing 
technique means 
that you don't 
have to dig through
menus to route
effects.  It's all on 
the surface of the 
788 itself.  The 
specific button 
pushes for each 
set-up are shown in 
the chart above to 
the right.  Refer to
it for specific button
combinations.

To assign EFFECT 2 as a Stereo Dynamic Processor, 

Press EFFECT 2 and STEREO simultaneously.

Stereo Effect Processor on EFFECT SEND:

To assign EFFECT 1 in this configuration,

press EFFECT 1 and SEND simultaneously.

Multi-Effect Processor inserted into a

specific main mixer CHANNEL:  To assign

EFFECT 1 in this configuration, press 

EFFECT 1 and SELECT for the channel

you want the chain inserted to.
Multi-Effect Processor assigned to follow 

an input:  To assign EFFECT 1 to follow

the routing of the input, press EFFECT 1

and INPUT (A, B, C, or D).  This will

keep the processing chained with the 

input through any channel assignment

on the main mixer.  This only works on

Stereo Effect Processor on AUX SEND:

To assign EFFECT 2 in this configuration,

press EFFECT 2 and SEND simultaneously.

Stereo Dynamics Processor on the

STEREO BUSS:  To assign EFFECT 2 in 

this configuration, press EFFECT 2 and 

STEREO simultaneously.

Dynamic Processors on all eight mixer

channels:  To assign EFFECT 2 in this 

configuration, press EFFECT 2 and any

channel SELECT button.

The 788 has two built-in effect processing engines, 
EFFECT 1 and EFFECT 2.  These processors are completely
independent of each other, and each can be used in a 
variety of ways.

EFFECT 1 can be assigned as either a single stereo effect 
processor on the EFFECT SEND, or it can function as a 
multieffect processor inserted on a single channel.  
EFFECT 2 can be assigned as either a single stereo effect 
processor on the AUX SEND, a single stereo dynamics 
processor on the stereo buss, or a multichannel dynamics 
processor with separate dynamics processing for each 
channel on the main mixer. 

Separate preset libraries are kept for each type of effect
processing, so you don't have to worry about writing over
your favorite guitar preset with the stereo dynamic 
settings you need.

The effect programs can be recalled by MIDI, so you can 
use the processors in automated mixdown, or even in a 
live show.  For guitar players, you can use a MIDI pedal 
board to recall your effect patches inside the 788.  For 
keyboard players, you can recall effects with controller 
keyboards and synths.  In the studio environment, most 
standard MIDI sequencers can send program change 
messages to change the presets.
