7.2. The Effects Types
There are ten Types in total; each one has its own set of three adjustable User parameters
using the Time, Intensity, and Amount knobs, and its own set of Subtypes.
Any FX slot can run any Type of effect. If any FX slot has been set to a Type that can only
be used once – Reverb, Delay, or Multi Comp – those choices will disappear from the menus
for the other FX slots.
7.2.1. Chorus
A chorus takes the input signal and makes one or more copies of it, each with a slight
time delay, and then changes those delay amounts slowly (or quickly) with an LFO. When
recombined with the dry signal, the effect is a wider, thicker version of the sound, one that
gives the impression of several instruments playing at once.
The MiniFreak Chorus has the following controls:
•
Rate
: the rate at which the LFO changes the time delay: slower for a richer chorus
sound, faster for a vibrato-like pulsing.
•
Depth
: the intensity of the effect.
•
Dry/Wet
: Dry/Wet mix.
Dry/Wet is not the same as the Depth! Depth mixes the dry and delayed signals to produce the
chorused signal; Dry/Wet mixes
that signal with the dry signal. Play with both to help you understand
the difference.
•
Subtypes
: Default, Lush, Dark, Shaded, Single
Try turning the Dry/Wet mix all the way wet and speeding up the Rate to create a stronger sense of
vibrato.
