Master Effects

master effect - one global effect that all groups can send to (DELAY is essential for dub!)

ep-40 has ONE master effect slot - for dub, you probably want delay

select your effect: press [fx] + use [-/+] to choose:

  • delay: echo with feedback -THE dub effect
  • reverb: adds space and room - also very dubby
  • distortion: drive, grit, saturation
  • chorus: modulation and widening
  • filter: resonant sweeping filter
  • compressor: dynamics control, glue

delay for dub (the classic choice):

  • x-knob: delay time (sync to tempo for rhythmic echoes)
  • y-knob: feedback (how many repeats - automate this!)
  • throw vocals and snares into the delay for classic dub

send groups to the effect:

  1. select a group (A, B, C, or D)
  2. hold [fader], press the FX send pad
  3. move the fader to control send amount
  4. automate the send for "echo throws"

output compressor (separate from effects): [shift] + [fx] → OUT page adds master compression to the final mix
