Effects List
Some effect parameters (such as RATE or DELAY TIME) can be set in
terms of a note value.
Such parameters have a RATE SYNC switch that lets you specify
whether you will set the value as a numerical value or as a note value.
If you want to set RATE (DELAY TIME) as a numerical value, set the
RATE SYNC switch to “OFF.” If you want to set it as a note value, set
the RATE SYNC switch to “ON.”
* If the RATE is specified as a note value, the modulation will be
synchronized with the tempo when you play back SMF song
data.
note:
fig.MFX-note2.e_88
If a parameter whose RATE SYNC switch is set to “ON” is
specified as a destination for multi-effect control, you will not be
able to use multi-effect control to control that parameter.
If you specify the delay time as a note value, slowing down the
tempo will not change the delay time beyond a certain length.
This is because there is an upper limit for the delay time; if the
delay time is specified as a note value and you slow down the
tempo until this upper limit is reached, the delay time cannot
change any further. This upper limit is the maximum value that
can be specified when setting the delay time as a numerical
value.
The following 3D effects utilize RSS (Roland Sound Space) technology
to create a spaciousness that cannot be produced by delay, reverb,
chorus, etc.

31: 3D STEP FLANGER
When using these effects, we recommend that you place your
speakers as follows. Also, make sure that the speakers are at a
sufficient distance from the walls on either side.

If the left and right speakers are too far apart, or if there is too much
reverberation, the full 3D effect may not appear.
Each of these effects has an “OUTPUT MODE” parameter. If the sound
from the OUTPUT jacks is to be heard through speakers, set this
parameter to “SPEAKER.” If the sound is to be heard through
headphones, set it to “PHONES.” This will ensure that the optimal 3D
effect will be heard. If this parameter is not set correctly, the full 3D
effect may not appear.
06: STEP FILTER
16: STEP RING MODULATOR
19: STEP PAN
20: SLICER
63: STEP PITCH SHIFTER
The above five types contain a sixteen-step sequencer.
For these types, you can use a multi-effect control (p. 21) to reset the
sequence to play from the first step.
To do this, set the multi-effect control DESTINATION to “STEP RESET.”
For example if you are using the modulation lever to control the effect,
you would make the following settings.
SOURCE:
CC01: MODULATION
DESTINATION:
STEP RESET
SENS:
+63
With these settings, the sequence will play back from the first step
whenever you operate the modulation lever.
