L–R BALANCE (

)

LOW BOOST (

)

HIGH BOOST (

H i

)

Cancels the vocal or other sound

located in the center .

Adjusts the point at which maximum

cancellation occurs .

Boosts the low-frequency sounds

located in the center, such as the

bass .

Boosts the high-frequency sounds .

BALANCE (

)

Adds a low-frequency sine wave

based on the volume being input to

the effect (*3) .

Adjusts the frequency of the sine

wave .

Adjusts the volume at which the sine

wave will begin sounding .

Adjusts the volume balance between

the direct sound and effect sound .

LOOP SW (

/

)

Loops the input sound over a short

period .

Adjusts the length of the loop .

Specifies the timing at which the

looped sound will automatically start

sounding (in 8th note intervals) (*4) .

Set this to “oFF” if you don’t want the

loop to play automatically .

If you turn this on while the sound

is heard, the sound at that point will

be looped . Turn this off to defeat

looping .

*

For FLANGER and PHASER, you can use [MFX] button + [CTRL 1] knob to adjust the volume balance between the direct sound and effect sound .

*1: It is specified as a note value relative to the tempo of the longest sample of the samples to which the effect is being applied .

Note values that you can specify:
32nd note (t32) / 16th note (t16) / 8th note triplet (t8t) / dotted 16th note (t16 .) / 8th note (t8) / quarter note triplet (t4t) / dotted 8th note (t8 .) / quarter note (t4) / half note

triplet (t2t) / dotted quarter note (t4 .) / half note (t2) / dotted half note (t2 .) / whole note (t1)
However, you can’t select a setting that would cause the delay time to exceed approximately 2000 milliseconds . If a pattern is playing, the tempo of the pattern is used as

the reference .

*2: You can select the following patterns by turning the [CTRL] knob .

The TIMING PTN interval will synchronize to the tempo of the longest sample of the samples to which the effect is being applied . However, if a pattern is playing, the

interval will synchronize to the tempo of the pattern .
You can use RATE to adjust the synchronization speed as follows .

RATE maximum (turn the [CTRL 2] knob all the way to the right): One cycle of TIMING PTN corresponds to one measure .
RATE minimum (turn the [CTRL 2] knob all the way to the left): One cycle of TIMING PTN corresponds to a 32nd note .

By turning the [CTRL 2] knob you can change this to any value from a 32nd note up to one measure .

*3: Turn the [CTRL 3] balance toward 12 o’clock, turn the [CTRL 1] knob’s pitch all the way to the right, and use the [CTRL 2] knob to adjust the threshold so that the sine wave

is sounded appropriately according to the input source . When you’ve finished setting the threshold, adjust the pitch and balance . This is a convenient way to supplement

the kick drum .

*4: The TIMING cycle will synchronize to the tempo of the longest sample to which the effect is being applied . However, if a pattern is playing, it will synchronize to the tempo

of the pattern .
