8 BLOCKS GUIDE

EXPERT PAGE
Low Cut
– Adjusts the cutoff frequency of a high-pass filter at the output of the processed signal. This control
removes bass frequencies and can be useful to create chorus effects designed for bass guitar.
High Cut
– Adjusts the cutoff frequency of a low-pass filter at the output of the processed signal. Decreasing
this value creates a darker chorus effect reminiscent of an age when typical effects were unable to reproduce the
full frequency spectrum. Lower this to achieve those sounds some might call “warm.”
LFO Phase
– Adjusts the phase differential between left and right voices, shifting the detune effects for less or
more apparent difference between opposing voices.
LFO Type
– Sets the “shape” of the modulation. Sine and Triangle are the most commonly used waveforms.
Note: Whenever the number of voices is set to more than two, the LFO type will change automatically to “SINE.” If
the number of voices is greater than two and the LFO type is changed to something other than “SINE,” the number
of voices will be reset to two.

Auto Depth
– Scales Depth to create a consistent sound at any Rate. This control simplifies dialing in “musical”
results. For precise control or wild sounds, you may wish to turn it off.
Phase Reverse
– Allows left, right or both channels of the effect to be phase-inverted.
Drive
– This control allows you to simulate the gentle distortion produced by overdriving an “analog bucket
brigade” delay chip of the type used in many vintage chorus effects. Set to zero for “pristine clean.”
Width
– Widens the sound, creating a difference between left and right delay times by scaling the right time
downwards from the value set (see Delay Time, above) toward 1 ms as Width goes from 0–100%.
LFO2 Rate
– Adjusts the rate of the secondary LFO. This LFO modulates the primary LFO and can be used to
create more interesting effects.
LFO2 Depth
– Adjusts the depth of the secondary LFO.
Stereo Spread
– Controls stereo width by setting the pan position of the two delays from hard-panned (100%) to
dead center (0%).
Dimension Mode
– Allows simulating the famous “Dimension”-style rackmount and pedal chorus units:
ƒ
OFF: Dimension mode is not active.
ƒ
LOW: A neutral version with no tonal coloration.
ƒ
MED: Classic Dimension processing buttons 1-3. Set Rate to 0.25 - 0.50 Hz and Depth to taste.
ƒ
HIGH: Classic Dimension processing button 4. Rate and Depth as above.
