EFFECT
2X2 CHORUS
Parameter
Value
Explanation
LOW RATE
0–100, BPM –
Adjust the speed of the chorus effect for
the low frequency range.
* When set to BPM, the value of each
parameter will be set according to
the value of the “MASTER BPM” (p. 26)
specified for each patch. This makes it
easier to achieve effect sound settings
that match the tempo of the song.
* If, due to the tempo, the time is longer
than the range of allowable settings, it
is then synchronized to a period either
1/2 or 1/4 of that time.
LOW DPT.
(LOW DEPTH)
0–100
Adjust the depth of the chorus effect
for the low frequency range. If you wish
to use this as a doubling effect, use a
setting of 0.
LOW LVL
(LOW LEVEL)
0–100
Adjusts the volume of the effect sound
in the low-frequency range.
HIGH RATE
0–100, BPM –
Adjust the speed of the chorus effect for
the high frequency range.
* When set to BPM, the value of each
parameter will be set according to
the value of the “MASTER BPM” (p. 26)
specified for each patch. This makes it
easier to achieve effect sound settings
that match the tempo of the song.
* If, due to the tempo, the time is longer
than the range of allowable settings, it
is then synchronized to a period either
1/2 or 1/4 of that time.
HIGH DPT.
(HIGH DEPTH)
0–100
Adjust the depth of the chorus effect for
the high frequency range. If you wish
to use this as a doubling effect, use a
setting of 0.
HIGH LVL
(HIGH LEVEL)
0–100
Adjusts the volume of the effect sound
in the high-frequency range.
LOW P-DLY
(LOW PRE DELAY)
0.0 ms–40.0 ms
Adjusts the delay of the effect sound in
the low-frequency range. Extending the
pre-delay will produce the sensation of
multiple sounds (doubling effect).
HIGH P-DLY
(HIGH PRE DELAY)
0.0 ms–40.0 ms
Adjusts the delay of the effect sound in
the high-frequency range. Extending the
pre-delay will produce the sensation of
multiple sounds (doubling effect).
XOVER
(CROSSOVER
FREQUENCY)
100 Hz–4.00 kHz
Adjusts the frequency dividing the low-
and high-frequency ranges.
D.LEVEL
(DIRECT LEVEL)
0–100
Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.
100=±0 dB
* If a mono effect or a loop is connected after this effect, the stereo effect is lost.
PHASER
Parameter
Value
Explanation
TYPE
Selects the number of stages that the phaser effect will use.
4STAGE
This is a four-phase effect. A light phaser effect
is obtained.
8STAGE
This is a eight-phase effect. It is a popular
phaser effect.
12STAGE
This is a twelve-phase effect. A deep phase
effect is obtained.
BiPHASE
This is the phaser with two phase shift circuits
connected in series.
RATE
0–100,
BPM –
Adjust the rate of the phaser effect.
* When set to BPM, the value of each
parameter will be set according to the value
of the “MASTER BPM” (p. 26) specified for
each patch. This makes it easier to achieve
effect sound settings that match the tempo
of the song.
* If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than
the range of allowable settings, it is then
synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4 of
that time.
DEPTH
0–100
Determines the depth of the phaser effect.
RESONANCE
0–100
Determines the amount of resonance
(feedback). Increasing the value will emphasize
the effect, creating a more unusual sound.
MANUAL
0–100
Adjusts the center frequency of the phaser
effect.
STEP RATE
OFF, 0–100,
BPM –
Adjusts the cycle of the step function that
changes the rate and depth. When it is set to a
higher value, the change will be finer.
Set this to “OFF” when not using the Step
function.
* When set to BPM, the value of each
parameter will be set according to the value
of the “MASTER BPM” (p. 26) specified for
each patch. This makes it easier to achieve
effect sound settings that match the tempo
of the song.
* If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than
the range of allowable settings, it is then
synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4 of
that time.
E.LEVEL
(EFFECT LEVEL)
0–100
Adjusts the volume of the phaser.
D.LEVEL
(DIRECT LEVEL)
0–100
Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.
100=±0 dB
