POLY COMP (Poly Compressor)
The compressor is an effect that attenuates loud input levels
and boosts soft input levels, thus evening out the volume to
create sustain without distortion.
POLY DIST (Poly Distortion)
You can individually distort the sound of each string to get a sound
that can be played chordally without breaking up.
POLY FX (Poly Effect)
Parameter/
Range
Explanation
POLYFX SW (Poly Effect Switch)
OFF, ON Turns the poly effect on/off.
TYPE
POLY COMP
POLY DIST
POLY OCTAVE
POLY SG Select the poly effect type.
* The parameters that can be set differ with
each type. Refer to each of the parameters
cited later.
POLYFX CH (Poly Effect Channel)
A, B This selects the channel to which the POLY
FX are applied.
Parameter/
Range
Explanation
COMP TYPE
Select the compressor type.
COMP The effect will function as a compressor.
LIMITR The effect will function as a limiter.
SUSTAIN (COMP TYPE = COMP)
0–100 Adjusts the range (time) over which low-
level signals are boosted. Larger values will
result in longer sustain.
ATTACK (COMP TYPE = COMP)
0–100 Adjusts the strength of the picking attack.
Larger values will result in a sharper attack,
creating a more clearly defined sound.
THRSH (COMP TYPE = LIMITR)
0–100 Adjusts the level to match the signals input
from the guitar. Signal levels are suppressed
when the signals input are in excess of the
set level.
REL (COMP TYPE = LIMITR)
0–100 Adjusts the amount of time from the point at
which the signals fall below the threshold lev-
el to when the effect is no longer applied.
TONE
-50–+50 Adjusts the tone.
LEVEL
0–100 Adjusts the volume.
COMP BAL (Compression Balance)
0–100 Adjusts the balance of the input levels for
the 2nd–6th strings based on the 1st string’s
input level. When this is set to 100, all of the
strings are input at the same level. The level
of the 2nd through 6th strings decreases as
the value is lowered.
Parameter/
Range
Explanation
MODE
Selects the type of distortion.
CLA OD A classical overdrive sound is obtained.
TURBO OD Allows you to obtain a rich effect just like
distortion, without losing the subtle nuance
of the overdrive.
DS1 Allows you to obtain a standard distortion
sound.
DS2 Allows you to obtain a distortion sound
with a rich middle.
FUZZ This produces a basic fuzz sound.
DRIVE
0–100 This sets the degree of sound distortion.
HIGH-CUT
700Hz–11.0kHz, FLAT Adjusts the tone of the distorted sound.
POLY BAL (Poly Balance)
0–100 Adjusts the degree of distortion for
chordal playing.
DRIVE BAL (Drive Balance)
0–100 Adjusts the degree of distortion be-
tween low and high strings, to even out
the volume balance.
LEVEL
0–100 Adjusts the output level that is raised
by being distorted.
