Guitar effects parameter list
■
COMPRESSOR: GTR MULTI
This effect produces long sustain by making the
volume of the input signal more uniform. You can
also use this as a “limiter” to prevent distortion by
holding down just the peaks of the sound.
■
A-WAH (Auto wah)
This effect automatically creates a wah effect by
sweeping a filter in a fixed pattern.
■
P-WAH (Pedal wah)
This effect produces the sound of a wah pedal.
* If an expression pedal (Roland EV-5; sold separately) is
connected to the rear panel CTL3, 4/EXP PEDAL jack,
the expression pedal will function as a wah pedal.
■
CHORUS
This effect creates a beautifully rich and spacious
sound by adding a slightly pitch-modulated
sound to the sound of the guitar or bass.
Parameter/
Range
Explanation
Sustain
0–100
Adjusts the duration of time over
which low-level input signals will
be boosted to a steady volume
Higher settings of this parameter will produce longer
sustain.
Level
0–100 Volume of the effect sound
Parameter/
Range
Explanation
Polarity
UP, DOWN

moves in response to the input
UP:
The filter will move toward a higher frequency.
DOWN:
The filter will move toward a lower frequency.
Sens
0–100
Specifies the sensitivity of the filter
movement
Freq
0–100 Center frequency of the wah effect
Peak
0–100
Depth of the wah effect in the re-
gion of the center frequency

sizes the wah effect more. A setting of “50” produces
the typical wah sound.
Rate
