Default Rane AP-13 - Effects on one channel!

Hello again all,

Back with more tech Qs.

I've read here that running effects into one channel of the Rane doesn't work as intuitively as how I thought it would.
It states in that article that running one effect on one channel (in this case Channel A or on the AP-13 it's piezo) cause the two channels to be summed to mono and sent out to the effects unit where, clearly, both channels are affected. He states you need to use dummy plugs for the other channel to combat this effect.
What he doesn't state is if doing the same thing on Channel B (mic on Ap-13) causes the same thing. I didn't think it was implied but then again it would make sense.

1. Is this true of Channel A/Piezo and if so does it apply to Channel B/mic?

2. If so what are and where can I get dummy plugs? I want to run my effects unit on the mic channel only (Sunrise will be going into that). I'll either do it insert or send and return. I've cables on order for both.

Thanks guys,
JP
