The TEC8's Effects
The TEC8’s library of effects is capable of handling virtually any musical sit-
uation. The following charts give you relevant information about each
module's settings. For example, Noise Gates, Detuners, and Pitch Shifters
are not shown because their Module names are relatively self explanatory
and are displayed on the front panel. The Fast Swell and Slow Swell Noise
Gates have attack times of 500 ms and 1000 ms respectively, which create
a volume pedal or bowing type effect.
DISTORTION
The TEC8 gives you 8 distortions to choose from, 4 of which
include Cabinet Emulation. Each distortion has 10 settings, giving
you plenty of selections when using either an amp or for going
direct into a mixer or recording device.

CHORUSES
A chorus works by splitting the input signal into 2 paths. One path
remains unaffected while the other is delayed and the pitch is modu-
lated slightly. Both are then mixed back together. Chorus is used to
create lush thickening effects or wild pitch modulation.
