Hi, was wondering what is the most economical and best way to add rack mount effects to a Roland VS890 and have easy use and access to the rack effects at any given time?
I have a Roland SRV330 Reverb and Chandler Stereo Echo Delay.
The VS890's reverbs are superb, but the VS890's delays,tape echo sims,etc. do not touch the quality of the Chandlers delay effects. What to do? Thanks!

PS, routing capacities and whats goes first,etc. would be appreciated!
 
I dont know the VS890 but in general:

You will need to have 2 busses or EFX sends on your VS890. Connect the 1&2 Buss out to the ins on the effects units. Run the effects units in stereo back into either the EFX return or better yet 2 stereo channels.

Use the buss send to control how much signal is sent to the effects and control the total effects amount on the returns.

Let me know if that makes sense to you.
 
On the VS machines,the AUX send is a stereo send,so if you want to feed two FX,adjust the AUX pan on all tracks you want to go to FX A to "L63" and adjust the AUX pan on all tracks you want to go to FX B to "R63". Of course if you want to send to both,leave the pan centered.You'll have to use up 4 of your VS's inputs to return those FX,there are no dedicated returns.PS if your FX have S/pdif outs,don't even think about sending them back through the DIG. ins,'cause the VS and your FX will spend all night trying to decide who's gonna clock to who.
