Mic Effect
There are six different Mic Effects available to enhance the audio signal (Voice or instrument sound)
coming from the microphone jack. All effects, except the Echo/Vibrato, operate independently of
one another. The Mic Effect function is separate from the Effects assigned to the keyboard Parts.
Therefore, you can use different effects on the keyboard sounds and on Vocal/instrument sounds
from the microphone.

Equalizer
The equalizer allows you to adjust the tonal Character of the Mic input (voice, instrument, etc) by
raising or lowering the volume level of the High, Mid and Low frequencies separately. Raising the
Values increases the level of the frequency
. Lowering the values reduces the level of the frequency.
Gate
This effect mutes the signal from the Mic input (Voice, Instrument, etc) when the input level (volume)
falls below a specified setting. This is useful for cutting out softer, extraneous background noise
(cars, air conditioners, etc) while still allowing the desired, louder signal (Vocal, instrument etc.) to
be heard. This can be very useful for recording to the CD-R in a noisy room.
Higher Gate settings cut out more background noise. 0 - All sounds are heard. 100 - Almost no
sound is heard.
Compressor
This effect reduces the volume of very loud input levels above the specified threshold. Reducing the
loud input levels can enhance soft signal levels that are weak and helps to smooth out the overall
volume level of a performance.
Threshold - Determines how loud the input must be before it is compressed. Higher settings provide
less compression. 0 - All input levels are compressed. 100 - No input level is compressed. Setting
Threshold to 50 will compress only the louder input levels for more natural compression.
Ratio - Determines how much the input level will be compressed (reduced). Higher values produce
more compression. Compression ratios between 1.6 and 5 are best for Vocals.
