Turning On the Lezlie Motor
Button: [EDIT] [EDIT] [70 LEZLIE]
Page: 1 or 4
Parameter: Motor (ON or OFF)
This determines whether the Lezlie is operating or not. When turned
ON , the rotating speaker effect starts up slowly, just like the real thing.
When turned OFF , the effect dies down slowly until it reaches a
complete stop.
Setting the Lezlie Speed
Button: [EDIT] [EDIT] [70 LEZLIE]
Page: 2 or 5
Parameter: Lezl Spd (SLOW or FAST)
This determines how fast the rotating effect “spins”. When you switch
between the two speeds, the effect will ramp up and down just like the
real deal.
Setting the Lezlie Horn Level
Button: [EDIT] [EDIT] [70 LEZLIE]
Page: 3 or 6
Parameter: Horn Lvl (-6 to +6 dB)
This parameter provides a way to cut or boost the high frequencies in the
Lezlie effect, allowing you to “darken” or “brighten” the tone in 1dB
increments.
The Pitch Function [80 PITCH]
Pitch effects are achieved by splitting a signal into two parts, delaying
and/or changing the pitch of one of the parts, and then mixing the two
back together. This final mixing step is essential, since the overall sound
of the effect is created in the way the changed and unchanged signals
interact.
Selecting the Pitch Effect
Button: [EDIT] [EDIT] [80 PITCH]
Page: 1
Parameter: Type (see below)
There are six different pitch-altering effects. They are:
MONO CHORUS. The Chorus effect is used to “thicken up” the
sound of an instrument, making one instrument sound like two or more
played together. In extreme cases, it can add a “watery” quality to a
sound.
TIP: Here’s how to control the Motor
ON/OFF setting from a footswitch: Select
the Sustain Pedal as the Mod source and
Lezlie Motor as your destination (or “P1
Motor”, depending on the configuration). If
the Motor is OFF, set the Mod Level to +99
so the footswitch turns the Lezlie on when
pressed. If the Motor is ON, route the
footswitch negatively in the Mod function.
NOTE: If you want to be able to control the
Lezlie speed when set to FAST, you’ll have
to route the modulation negatively in the
Effects Mod function.

different Configurations. Not all pages are
