T1 ToneMatch® Audio Engine / Routing for Effects

From Bose L1 Encyclopedia FAQ & Wiki

Contents 1 Parallel Effects 2 Serial Effects 3 Foot Switch to Mute Effects

This article addresses some interesting options you have for routing your signal through the T1® to process effects more than once. For ideas on how you can work with an external effects unit see: T1 ToneMatch® Audio Engine / Insert for External Effects

There are several less than obvious things you can do with effects through the T1 ToneMatch^® Audio Engine.

[edit] Parallel Effects

If you want to swap between two sets of effects or run two sets of effects at the same time (for example: two delays, two modulation effects, two reverbs)  try this.

Assume that you are using Channel 1 as the input where you want to do this:

• Set the effects you want on Channel 1
• Take a ¼ inch jack cable from the Channel 1 PreAmp Out to Channel 2 input
• Add the second layer of effects you want to Channel 2
• Now use the FX Mute buttons for Channels 1 and 2 to set which banks of effects will be used
  • Channel 1 only
  • Channel 2 only
    
  • Channel 1 and Channel 2 in parallel
    

[edit] Serial Effects

If you want to run some effects and then add more effects in series then take the output of one or more T1 ToneMatch^® Audio Engine Channels to the Aux Output, then take the Aux Output and use that as the input to another T1® Channel

Assume that you are using Channel 1 as the input where you want to do this:

• Set the effects that you want on Channel 1
• Set the Aux tap to Pre
• Take a ¼ inch jack cable from the Aux Out to Channel 2 input
• Apply effects that you want applied to the output of Channel 1
• Now use the FX Mute buttons for Channels 1 and 2 to set which banks of effects will be used
  • Channel 1 only
  • Channel 2 only
    
  • Channel 1 and Channel 2 in series
    

[edit] Foot Switch to Mute Effects

From Andy-at-Bose UK

First up hook up your vocal mic to, say, Channel 1 on the T1®. Next take a jack lead and connect it to the PRE AMP out on Channel 1. Take this lead and run it through either a keyboard style volume pedal or a make or break style footswitch. Run the signal from the pedal/footswitch into another T1® channel and set this channel up with the chosen vocal effects but make them 100% effect. Adjust the effected channel volume to get the desired blend of dry vocal to effected vocal. The pedal/footswitch will determine how much or if any signal will go to channel 2 and therefore whether or not an effect is added.
