Has anyone else noticed you can only route the Master fx to the main outs not the indv outs?

Insert fx are fine.

Odd.

-US.

its because master effects are summed back with the main bus. when you 'send' something to an MFX the original signal carries along the bus too. the MFX wet/dry control doesn't actually have any dry passthrough, it just controls the output level of the effect.

Just like the effects sends in a mixer.

edit:
sorry, for a moment I was thinking that you were talking about a triton-series keyboard.

The 'Master Effect' is actually more like a 'Total Effect', on the M3/M50, it applies to everything on the master bus.
I think it may have been nice to have a better effects routing system, like on the triton and M series, but it wasn't to be....
