Applying an External Effect
Here�s how you can use an external effect with SONAR. You will use a SONAR Virtual Main bus as the external effect send, and send audio signals from the tracks for processing by the external effect.

� Connect the External Effects Processor to the SI-24
1. 2. Connect the SI-24�s AUX 1 (OUTPUT 3 / 4) to the input of your external effects processor. Connect the output(s) of your external effects processor to the input(s) of the SI-24, and use the gain knob(s) to adjust the input gain.

� Set a SONAR Bus as the External Effect Send
3. In the Track view, click the Out dropdown menu of the Aux 1. You may need to enlarge the Aux 1 to show the Out control: In Aux 1, click the �Restore Strip Size� button to expand the bus. 4. Select the output to �B.�

� Send the Signal from Each Track to the External Effect
5. In a track view that you want to patch through Aux 1, click the �Aux 1 Send Enable� button (lit green). You may need to enlarge a track to show the �Aux 1 Send Enable� button: In a track, click the �Restore Strip Size� button to expand the bus.

6.

Use the SI-24�s [CH SELECT] to select the track to which you want to apply the effect (lit red).

7.

Turn the SI-24�s [SEND/EQ] on (lit red), and use the SEND knob to adjust the amount of signal that is sent to the external effect. If you have not made RPC-1 mixer settings so that you can monitor the SI-24�s inputs �Step 4: Making RPC-1 Settings� (p. 14), you will not be able to monitor the effecton at this point. Use the output level of your external effects processor to adjust the effect return level. Although it is possible to adjust the return level using the RPC-1 mixer, the level adjustment in this case will not affect what is recorded on the tracks, so you will need to re-adjust the level of the effect sound after recording it on the tracks. The output of an external effect can be recorded on a track in the same way as when recording a conventional track.
