Using loop effects
About loop effects
Effects that are connected between the effect-send and effect-
return points of input channels and tracks are referred to as
loop effects. This type of effect is generally used to change
the spatial nature of a song using reverberation, stereo
processing, and the like. You can specify how much of an
input or track to send to a loop effect by setting the
corresponding send level, and naturally, this will change the
degree to which the effect is applied to that input or track.
And since send levels can be set independently for each
different input and track, it is easy to set up conditions
where, for example, a lot of reverb is applied to a vocal line
but only a little is applied to the drums.

The BR-1600CD features CHORUS/DELAY/DOUBLING
and REVERB as loop effects, and using these, you can easily
and effectively add breadth and depth to the sound.

Reverb:
Reverb (or reverberation) is the result of countless reflections from the floor,
walls, and ceiling of the room in which the musician is performing. Think of
the sound that lingers and fades away after you clap your hands in a
church—this is reverb. The actual sound of this effect can vary widely as a
result of factors such as the size of the performance space (whether it be a
room, hall, etc.), the shape of this space, and the material of the walls or
other surfaces that reflect the sound waves.

Chorus:
A chorus effect creates a copy of the original sound with a very
slight change in pitch, and by superimposing this on top of the
original sound, it lets you add fatness and breadth to the sound.

Delay:
A delay is a little bit like an echo, and by repeating the original
sound after it is played, this effect can add a sense of spaciousness
and depth to the sound. In addition, when this effect is applied to
instruments that play melodies, it can make their performance
sound smoother or can add an extra bounce to their rhythm.

Doubling:
A doubling effect sets up a tiny time deviation (or short
delay) between the left and right sides of a signal to give the
sound a stereo feel.

You can only select and use one chorus, delay, or doubling
effect—two or more of these effects cannot be used at the
same time. Note, however, that reverb can be used at the
same time as a chorus, delay, or doubling effect.

About loop effect connections
You can select any of the following loop-effect connection patterns for your input sources and tracks.
fig.34-01
Even if you record an input source to which a loop effect has
been applied, only the direct sound (i.e., without the effect)
will actually be recorded on the track. After recording an
input source, however, the setting for its loop-effect send
level will be automatically copied to the loop-effect send
level of the recorded track. As a result, when the track is
played back, it will sound exactly the same as the input
been applied, only the direct sound (i.e., without the effect)
will actually be recorded on the track. After recording an
input source, however, the setting for its loop-effect send
level will be automatically copied to the loop-effect send
level of the recorded track. As a result, when the track is
played back, it will sound exactly the same as the input
source with the loop effect applied.
Note that the BR-1600CD can only use one chorus, delay, or
doubling effect together with a reverb effect. Accordingly,
you will not be able to use different types of loop effects for
each input source or track. Only the send level can be set
independently for each input source and track.
