Abstract

A smart effects unit disclosed includes effects modules, a control module and a switching device. The control module includes a processor, a user interface and a memory. The processor is connected to an musical instrument and effect modules through an input switch interface, such that the audio signal of the instrument is able to be inputted into the effects modules based on a combination configuration to generate a combined effect audio signal. The combination configuration defines the connection sequence of the plurality of effect modules. The user interface is provided to adjust each effect module and the connection sequence order of effect modules through the input interface to generate the combination configuration, which is stored in a memory. The switching device connected to the control module is provided to switch the control module between different combination configurations based on the combination configurations stored in the memory.
