Chapter 4 Introduction to Effects and Parameters
Chapter

AFB (Anti-feedback)
This prevents the acoustic feedback that can be produced by
the body resonances of a guitar.
HU (Humanizer)
This can create human vowel-like sounds.
*1
Setting available with Mode set to Picking or Auto.
*2
Setting available with Mode set to Picking.
*3
Setting available with Mode set to Auto.
SL (Slicer)
This consecutively interrupts the sound to create the
impression that a rhythm backing phrase is being played.
Parameter/
Range
Explanation
Freq1–3 (Frequency 1–3)
0–100
Set the fixed frequency point at which feed-
back will be cancelled.
You can set up to three cancellation points.
Depth1–3
0–100
Adjusts the degree of the anti-feedback at
each of the three cancellation points.
Parameter/
Range
Explanation
Mode
Picking, Auto,
Random
This sets the mode that switches the vowels.
Picking
It changes from vowel 1 to vowel 2 along with the picking. The time
spent for the change is adjusted with the rate.
Auto
By adjusting the rate and depth, two vowels (Vowel 1 and Vowel 2)
can be switched automatically.
Random
Five vowels (a, e, i, o, u) are called out at random by adjusting the
rate and depth.
Vowel 1 *1
a, e, i, o, u
Selects the first vowel.
fig.04-060d
Vowel 2 *1
a, e, i, o, u
Selects the second vowel.
Sens *2
0–100
Adjusts the sensitivity of the humanizer.
When it is set to a lower value, no effect of the humanizer is obtained
with weaker picking, while stronger picking produces the effect.
When it is set to a higher value, the effect of the humanizer can be ob-
tained whether the picking is weak or strong.
Rate
0–100,
BPM
–BPM
Adjusts the cycle for changing the two vow-
els.
Vowel 1
Vowel 2
* When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according to
the value of the Master BPM (p. 51) specified for each patch. This makes
it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the
song (synchronizing the cycle to one-half or one-fourth of the BPM
when the set cycle rate is increased).
When setting to BPM, press PARAMETER [
] several times to
display the Master BPM settings screen.
Depth
0–100
Adjusts the depth of the effect.
Manual *3
0–100
This determines the point where the two
vowels are switched.
When it is set to “50,” vowel 1 and vowel 2 are switched in the same
length of time. When it is set to lower than “50,” the time for vowel
1 is shorter. When it is set to higher than “50,” the time for vowel 1 is
longer.
Level
0–100
Adjusts the volume.
Parameter/
Range
Explanation
Pattern
P1–P20
Select the slice pattern that will be used to
cut the sound.
Rate
0–100,
BPM
–BPM
Adjust the rate at which the sound will be
cut.
* When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according to
the value of the Master BPM (p. 51) specified for each patch. This makes
it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the
song (synchronizing the cycle to one-half or one-fourth of the BPM
when the set cycle rate is increased).
When setting to BPM, press PARAMETER [
] several times to
display the Master BPM settings screen.
Trigger Sens
0–100
Adjust the sensitivity of triggering.
With low settings of this parameter, softly picked notes will not re-
trigger the phrase (i.e., the phrase will continue playing), but strong-
ly picked notes will retrigger the phrase so that it will playback from
the beginning. With high settings of this parameter, the phrase will
be retriggered even by softly picked notes.
