Multi FX
You have the possibility to choose from different
Multi FX types. To do this, use the dial
[7],
the
navigation keys
[8]
or the
[+]
and
[-]
keys.
Each FX type has different parameters that are
listed. You will find a tabular list in the following
chapter.
Delay
Delay Time, Feedback, Pre-Low-Pass, High Damp
Records a segment of the played sound and
repeats it several times with a certain delay (multi-
echo).
Wah-Wah
Filter Type (Low Pass/Band Pass), Frequency, Resonance,
Sensivity, Direction (up/down)
The wah-wah effect is created by dynamically
"brushing" through the frequency spectrum of the
dry signal using a specific audio filter. Instead of
classic pedal control like guitar effects, the G5
generates the movement of the filter along the
frequency spectrum by the velocity of the stick
beat.
Distortion
Filter Type (Low Pass/Band Pass), Frequency, Resonance, Sensivity, Direction (up/down)
Oversaturates the audio signal with gain and adds additional harmonic frequencies to the mix,
resulting in a fuller, but in the case of distortion also "squarer" sound.
Chorus
Type (Sinus/Triangle), Modulation Rate, Modulation Depth
Creates a fuller sound by creating the illusion that several instruments are playing simultaneously.
The effect is achieved by duplicating the dry signal and slightly delaying the detuned duplicate
(fixed delay time of 20 ms). The frequency modulation of the duplicated signal is controlled by
various LFO waveforms.
Flanger
Modulation Rate, Modulation Depth, Delay Time, Feedback
Doubles the dry signal and shifts it within a short delay time so that dry signal and duplicate are not
perceived as two different sounds, creating an interesting effect.
