Parameter
OFF/ON Turns FX OFF/ON.
FX SELECT Parameter
OD/DS
This effect distorts the sound to create long sustain.
Select the type of distortion with TYPE, then use DRIVE to adjust the amount of distortion.
”OD/DS parameter list” (p. 26)
WAH
You can connect an expression pedal to the EXP PEDAL CTL1/2 jack and use the pedal to control the wah effect in
real time.
”WAH parameter list” (p. 26)
COMP
This is an effect that produces a long sustain by evening out the volume level of the input signal.
Use the SUSTAIN parameter to adjust the length of the effect and ATTACK to adjust the strength of the picking
attack.
”COMP parameter list” (p. 27)
LIMITER
The limiter attenuates loud input levels to prevent distortion.
Adjust THRESHOLD to match the guitar input signal.
”LIMITER parameter list” (p. 27)
OCTAVE
This adds a note one octave lower, creating a richer sound.
Play a single tone while completely muting the other strings.
”OCTAVE parameter list” (p. 27)
AC.PROCESSOR
(AC.PRO)
This processor allows you to change the sound produced by the pickup on an acoustic electric guitar, creating a
richer sound similar to that obtained with a microphone placed close to the guitar.
You can select the acoustic guitar type.
”AC.PROCESSOR parameter list” (p. 27)
PHASER
By adding varied-phase portions to the direct sound, the phaser effect gives a whooshing, swirling character to
the sound.
You can select the phaser configuration.
”PHASER parameter list” (p. 27)
FLANGER
The flanging effect gives a twisting, jet-airplane-like character to the sound.
”FLANGER parameter list” (p. 27)
TREMOLO
Tremolo is an effect that creates a cyclic change in volume.
”TREMOLO parameter list” (p. 27)
ROTARY
This produces an effect like the sound of a rotary speaker.
Setting CTL 1/2 to ROTARY SPEED SEL allows you to switch the speaker’s rotation speed between SLOW and FAST
with the footswitch.
”ROTARY parameter list” (p. 28)
UNI-V
This models a Uni-Vibe. Although this resembles a phaser effect, it also provides a unique modulation that you
can’t get with a regular phaser.
”UNI-V parameter list” (p. 28)
PAN
Alternately changes the volume level of the left and right channels. When monitoring the sound in stereo, this
effect makes the guitar sound “fly” back and forth between the speakers.
”PAN parameter list” (p. 28)
