If desired, you can insert an effect processor or other external device into the signal path of an
INPUT, MIX, MATRIX, STEREO, or MONO channel. When doing so, the type of input/output port
used for the insertion and the location of the insertion in/out can be specified individually for each
channel.

ment to the I/O card(s) in slots 1–3.
