Audio Setup
The MultiMix 4 USB FX is a classcompliant device that can be used with virtually any digital audio workstation or recording software that supports USB audio. If you want to use the included Cubase® 7 LE software, follow the directions on the included software download card that is included in the MultiMix 4 USB FX box.
Notes:
When recording a guitar or bass with an active pickup, set the MultiMix 4 USB FX's GUITAR SWITCH to the up/raised position. If your instrument uses a passive pickup, engage the switch.
To reduce electrical hum at high gain settings, keep the MultiMix 4 USB FX's power supply away from your guitar cable and the MultiMix 4 USB FX's channel inputs.

•ROOM 2: A small, very reflective bright room reverberation effect suitable for drums and percussion as well as electric guitars and other instruments.
•ROOM 3: A large, warm room reverberation effect suitable for acoustic instruments.
•PLATE 1: A lush, smooth vocal plate reverb with a long decay time and warm tonality.
•PLATE 2: An emulation of vintage plate reverb with bright, slightly tinny tonality and a medium-length decay.
•PLATE 3: A short, bright plate reverb effective for creating subtle spaces.
MODULATION EFFECTS
•CHORUS: A complex, 6-voice chorus ensemble effect with short delays often referred to as a "Chorus / Doubler". Discrete stereo signal path. Slow and watery.
•FLANGE: Classic stereo flange: a slow, slightly metallic sweep with a discrete stereo signal path.
•ROTARY: Fast rotary speaker simulator creates the classic, lush Doppler effect of an organ’s spinning horn. Effective on guitars, vocals, keyboards and other instruments.
DELAY EFFECTS
•DELAY 1: A simple slap-back echo with no feedback particularly effective on vocals and rhythm guitars.
•DELAY 2: Medium-length poly-rhythmic delay with crossover feedback. 3 to 4 ratio between L and R delay times (291 to 388ms) for 3/4 vs. 4/4 feel. Useful for solo instruments where a long, trailing echo effect is desired.
