Using Reverb on specific tracks

[Loxkkeeper]

Hi, relative newbie here.
I use the Tascam Dp24sd for my own amusement, recording backing tracks onto tracks 1 and 2, simultaneously recording vocals onto tracks 3 and 4.
I know how to set reverb but I only want to apply the reverb to the vocals tracks, not tracks 1 and 2. I’ve tried to work through the manual but I must admit, at my age I find it somewhat complicated.
Can anyone help (in newbie language!!)
Thanks in advance.

Send 1 is hard-wired to the internal FX. Make sure that you only have Send 1 turned up on the tracks you want.

Ok. Thanks for the reply. I’ll try that.
Regards

The manual is useless at ANY age!!

Do yourself a favor and buy Phil's guide for the Tascam 24/32 SDs. You can thank me -- and him -- later.

I concur. Bought it one week after getting my DP-24. It was a revelation for a deep understanding of the DP workflow from input to track recording to mixdown to mastering.
Several YT videos are also not to be sneezed at. I recommend those from Phil
and those from Powercoat.

Thanks everybody for your help and recommendations.
I hate to play the “poor old me” card, but being on a low pension and with the current cost of energy and cost of living, I’m afraid every penny is spoken for. I will though go through the YouTube videos you have recommended.
Again, thanks for your help.

Loxkkeeper - I would be happy to cover the cost of the Tipping guide. If you find that acceptable - please put your email address here or send it to me in a private message and I will arrange it.

Cheers!

Wow, at this festive (it's supposed to be...) time of year, that very generous offer reaffirms my Faith in humanity!

Kudos' to David for being a class act with a heart!

I hope his offer is accepted.

Wow indeed. Such generosity deserves a reciprocal offer - I'll donate 1/2 the cost into the pot.
Merry Christmas one and all

Wow!! Kindness and consideration isnt dead. I really appreciate the exceptionally kind offers.
However, this substantial increase in the cost of living is affecting everybody, including your kind selves. Consequently, I would feel very much as if I was 'begging' by accepting your kind offer, and from people who probably have their own problems.
So, as much as I appreciate the offers, my foolish pride would prohibit me from accepting. In all my nearly 77 years i've always tried to rely on myself without imposing upon other people.
Therefore I would most respectfully decline your kind offers.
Thanks again.

Also MJK, thanks for your tip re SEND1, I've tried that and it does the job fine.
Thank you again.

Fair enough, friend. The offer stands should you change your mind.
