Echo

 – This will give a delay-based effect in which copies of the music are heard trailing off to silence; similar to 

shouting from a mountaintop and hearing your voice repeat. 

Auto Pan

 – This will move the stereo sound automatically from the left to the right speaker repeatedly. 

Flanger

 – This is an effect that generates a swirling sound by adding a slightly delayed copy of the signal in 

which the copy's delay time fluctuates. 

Manual Filter

 – The Filter effect removes certain frequencies from the music. Use the Time and Level/Depth 

knobs to manually fade through the removal of each frequency. 

Auto Filter

 - The Filter effect removes certain frequencies from the music automatically. 

Reverb

 – This is an effect in which the ambience of a physical space is simulated. 

Trans

 – This effect gives the impression of the sound dropping out, making it stutter. 

Pitch Shift

 – This effect allows you to increase or decrease the pitch of the music without increasing or 

decreasing the tempo. 

36. Input Select Switch 

This switch allows the user to select the input source for the effects to be added to. 

37. Level/Depth Control 

 This rotary knob is used to adjust the ‘Y Parameter’ (mix ratio, resonance or feedback) of the selected effect. 

38. Time Array Control 

This rotary knob is used to adjust the ‘X Parameter’ (Time) of the selected effect. 

39. LCD Display Screen 

This screen gives the user a visual display of the selections that have been made within the DSP module. 
Working from the top left hand corner it shows the input that is selected, the effect that is selected, the BPM of 
the track playing, the ‘X Parameter’ and finally the ‘Y Parameter’.
