In/Out
When set to ÒInÓ, the quantizer and ßanger are active; when set to ÒOutÓ, the quantizer
and ßanger are bypassed.
Out Gain
The overall gain or amplitude at the output of the effect.
Quant W/D
The relative amount of quantized (wet) to unaffected (dry) signal passed to the ßanger.
At 100%, you hear only quantized signal pass to the ßanger.
Flange W/D
The relative amount of input signal (from the quantizer) and ßanger signal that is to
appear in the Þnal effect output mix. When set to 0%, the output is taken only from the
quantizer (dry). When set to 100%, the output is all wet. Negative values polarity-invert
the wet signal.
DynamRange
The digital dynamic range controls signal quantization, or how many bits to remove
from the signal data words. At 0 dB the hottest of signals will toggle between only two
bit (or quantization) levels. Every 6 dB added doubles the number of quantization levels.
If the signal has a lot of headroom (available signal level before digital clipping), then
not all quantization levels will be reached.
Headroom
When the signal has a lot of headroom (available signal level before digital clipping),
turning down DynamRange can cause the amplitude of adjacent quantization levels to
exceed the input signal level. This causes the output to get very loud. Set Headroom to
match the amount of digital signal level still available (headroom). This is easily done by
Þnding the DynamRange level at which the signal starts getting louder and matching
Headroom to that value.
dc Offset
Adds a positive dc Offset to the input signal. By adding dc Offset, you can alter the
position where digital zero is with respect to your signal. At low DynamRange settings,
adding dc Offset can make the output ÒsputterÓ. dc Offset is expressed in decibels (dB)
relative to full scale digital.
Fl Tempo
Basis for the rates of the LFOs, as referenced to a musical tempo in bpm (beats per
minute). When this parameter is set to ÒSystemÓ, the tempo is locked to the internal
sequencer tempo or to incoming MIDI clocks. When it is set to ÒSystemÓ, sources (FUNs,
LFOs, ASRs etc.) will have no effect on the Tempo parameter.
Fl Period
Sets the LFO rate based on the Tempo determined above: the number of beats
corresponding to one period of the LFO cycle. For example, if the Fl Period is set to Ò4Ó,
the LFOs will take four beats to pass through one oscillation, so the LFO rate will be
1/4th of the Tempo setting. If it is set to Ò6/24Ó (=1/4), the LFO will oscillate four times
as fast as the Tempo. At Ò0Ó, the LFOs stop oscillating and their phase is undetermined
(wherever they stopped).
Fl Fdbk
The level of the ßanger feedback signal into the ßanger delay line. The feedback signal is
taken from the LFO delay tap. Negative values polarity-invert the feedback signal.
