For “tape echo madness,” use
the default Ramp setting, set the
echo time and feedback to near
maximum, and then - rotate the
Echo Time (ms) (FX VAL 1) knob
and listen. You will be able to get the
swirly, warble, drunken pitch change
to feed back through the echo the
way countless tone masters have
used the sliding tape head on
vintage tape echo units in real time.
You can also use a MIDI
continuous controller pedal or
expression pedal to control the echo
time for the same effect.
%
Wow & Flutter. Adjusts the amount of wow (random frequency
response modulation) and flutter (random pitch change) present in the
echo signal. Select between 1.0 for minimum levels and 10.0 for maxi-
mum levels of this effect. Note that by having this control in the higher
part of its range, the wow and flutter will continue to operate over the
repeats of the echo, causing compounded randomness.
&
Echo Time Change. Select Ramp or Step to change the way the
effect responds to changes in the Echo Time parameter. With the
Ramp setting, the echo time change will be gradual with an analog
sounding pitch warble, (audible until the delay time stabilizes). With the
Step setting, the echo time change will be instant with a “digital zip”
sound audible for a moment.

Description
Stereo chorus effects with sine-wave or triangle-wave delay modulation.
The sine-wave version tends to sound more swirly, while the triangle-wave
variety is subjectively more even-sounding.
Adjustable parameters
Chorus Output Level. Adjusts the wet/dry signal ratio. Select between
1.0 for 0% wet (no effect) and 10.0 for a 50% mix.
$
Chorus Rate (Hz). Range: from 0.08 Hz to 10 Hz. Adjusts the rate of
the chorus effect. The increment of change gradually increases from
0.01 Hz for the slowest rate to 0.08 Hz for the fastest rate. Remember
that the TAP button can always be used to key in the chorus rate by
feel– two TAPs set the time it takes for the chorus LFOs (Low Fre-
quency Oscillators) to go through one cycle. Note: Although this is a
stereo chorus, both of the chorus voices move at the same rate.
"
Chorus Depth. Adjusts the amount of Doppler shift and how apparent
the effect sounds. Select between 1.0 for no apparent effect and 10.0
for maximum effect.

Try turning the Chorus Depth
control to 1.0 and actively adjusting
Chorus Average Delay to achieve
a comb-filter effect.
#
Chorus Avg Delay. Adjusts the average delay time of the moving cho-
rus taps. Select 1.0 for a transparent natural sound and 10.0 for a syn-
thesized sound with a noticeable delay between the original and
chorus signals. Use higher settings for a doubling effect.
%
Sine Chorus/Tri Chorus Phase. Adjusts the phase relationship
between the two chorus Low Frequency Oscillators. Select 1.0 and the
two voices of the chorus are in phase and the effect is minimal. Select
10.0 and the LFOs are out-of-phase and the maximum stereo effect is
achieved. For Sine Chorus, this control is usually set at 5.5 for the ideal
sound. For Triangle Chorus, this control is often set 10.0 for the best
sound.
