■ Connection between sound source such as electronic instrument or CD
player and playback equipment
This connection example shows the use of the 1201 as an effect device for electronic instruments.
When using the unit in a monaural configuration, connect only the L/MONO jack. The balance
between the original sound of the instrument and the effect sound is adjusted by the MIX level control.
When wishing to apply an effect such as KARAOKE to stereo sources, a CD player can be connected
instead of an electronic instrument. (The KARAOKE effect only works with stereo sources.)
■ Connection to send/return jacks of a mixer
This connection example shows the use of the 1201 in the send/return loop of a mixer to which
instruments or other sound sources are connected. In this case, the balance between the original sound
of the mixer (DRY) and the effect sound
produced by the 1201 (WET) is normally
adjusted at the mixer. Therefore the MIX
LEVEL control of the 1201 should be
turned fully clockwise, so that only the
WET sound is returned to the mixer.
■ Connection for use of the Vocoder effect
When the Vocoder effect is selected, the R input signal is used to create an envelope, and the effect
itself is applied to the L/MONO input signal. Therefore the microphone (via a microphone amplifier
or mixer) should be connected to the R jack and the keyboard or guitar signal to the L/MONO jack.
When connections have been made in this way, talking or singing into the microphone will alter the
instrument sound according to the voice envelope curve (Vocoder effect).
■ Using two effects in parallel
The 1201 allows the simultaneous use of two effects in parallel. This is possible with the effects in
bank B marked with a "/" on the display. This connection example shows how to use such effects
independently in a parallel configuration.
