FX (Effects) Chapter 9 Parameters Guide

Chapter 9

SLOW GEAR

This produces a volume-swell effect (“violin-like” sound).

DEFRET

This simulates a fretless guitar.

FEEDBACKER

This allows you to use feedback playing techniques.

*

Note that the notes you want to apply feedback to must be played
singly and cleanly.

*

You can use the footswitch to switch the effect on and off. For more
details, refer to p. 49.

*1

Setting available with MODE set to OSC.

Parameter/
Range

Explanation

SENS (Sensitivity)

0–100

Adjusts the sensitivity.

RISE TIME

0–100

Adjusts the time needed for the volume to
reach its maximum from the moment you
begin picking.

Parameter/
Range

Explanation

TONE

-50–+50

Adjusts the amount of blurring between the
notes.

SENS (Sensitivity)

0–100

This controls the input sensitivity of the de-
fretter.

ATTACK

0–100

Adjusts the attack of the picking sound.

DEPTH

0–100

This controls the volume of the harmonics.

RESO (Resonance)

0–100

Adds a characteristically resonant quality to
the sound.

EFFECT LEVEL

0–100

Adjust the volume of the defretter sound.

DIRECT LEVEL

0–100

Adjust the volume of the direct sound.

Parameter/
Range

Explanation

MODE

OSC (Oscillator)

An artificial feedback sound will be created
internally.
When OSC is selected, the effect is activated
after a single note is played and the note sta-
bilizes. A feedback effect is created when
the effect switches on; the feedback disap-
pears when the OSC effect switches off.

NATURAL

Analyzes the pitch of the guitar sound being
input, and then creates a feedback sound.

RISE TIME *1

0–100

This determines the time needed for the vol-
ume of the feedback sound to reach its max-
imum from the moment the effect is turned
on.

RISE TIME+ *1

0–100

This determines the time needed for the vol-
ume of the one octave higher feedback
sound to reach its maximum from the mo-
ment the effect is turned on.

FB LEVEL (Feedback Level)

0–100

Adjusts the volume of the feedback sound.

FB LEVEL+ (Feedback Level+) *1

0–100

Adjusts the volume of the one octave higher
feedback sound.

VIB RATE (Vibrato Rate) *1

0–100,

BPM

–BPM

Adjusts the rate of the vibrato when the
feedbacker is on.

When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according
to the value of the BPM (p. 163) specified for each patch. This makes
it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the
song.

* If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than the range of allowable

settings, it is then synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4 of that
time.

VIB DEPTH (Vibrato Depth) *1

0–100

Adjusts the depth of the vibrato when the
feedbacker is on.
