FX (Effects) Chapter 8 Parameters Guide
Chapter 8
ROTARY
This produces an effect like the sound of a rotary speaker.
UNI-V
This models the sound of the Uni-vibe.
Although the same type of effect as a phaser, its characteristic feature
is a unique twisting effect, which you can’t get from an ordinary
phaser.
VIB (Vibrato)
This effect creates vibrato by slightly modulating the pitch.
SLICER
This consecutively interrupts the sound to create the impression that
a rhythm backing phrase is being played.
Parameter/
Range
Explanation
SPEED
SLOW, FAST This parameter changes the simulated
speaker’s rotating speed (Slow or Fast).
RATE SLOW
0–100,
BPM –BPM
This parameter adjusts the speed of rotation
when set to SLOW.
RATE FAST
0–100,
BPM –BPM
This parameter adjusts the speed of rotation
when set to FAST.
When the Rate (SLOW) or Rate (FAST) set to BPM, the value of each
parameter will be set according to the value of the BPM (p. 142) spec-
ified for each patch. This makes it easier to achieve effect sound set-
tings 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.
RISE TIME
0–100 This parameter adjusts the time it takes for
the rotation speed to change when switched
from Slow to Fast.
FALL TIME
0–100 This parameter adjusts the time it takes for
the rotation speed to change when switched
from Fast to Slow.
DEPTH
0–100 This parameter adjusts the amount of depth
in the rotary effect.
Parameter/
Range
Explanation
RATE
0–100,
BPM –BPM
Adjusts the rate of the Uni-V effect.
When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according
to the value of the BPM (p. 142) 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.
DEPTH
0–100 Adjusts the depth of the Uni-V effect.
LEVEL
0–100 Adjusts the volume.
Parameter/
Range
Explanation
RATE
0–100,
BPM –BPM
Adjusts the rate of the vibrato.
When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according to
the value of the BPM (p. 142) specified for each patch. This makes it eas-
ier 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.
DEPTH
0–100 Adjusts the depth of the vibrato.
RISE TIME
0–100 This sets the time passing from the moment
the trigger is turned on until the set vibrato
is obtained.
* When a patch with TRIG set to ON is called
up, the effect obtained is identical to what
happens when TRIG is switched from OFF to
ON. If you want the vibrato effect to be
produced immediately after the patches are
switched, set RISE TIME to 0.
TRIG (Trigger)
OFF, ON This selects on/off of the vibrato. It is as-
sumed that this parameter will be assigned
to the footswitch. (p. 42)
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 BPM (p. 142) specified for each patch. This makes it eas-
ier 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.
TRIG SENS (Trigger Sensitivity)
0–100 Adjust the sensitivity of triggering.
With low settings of this parameter, softly
picked notes will not retrigger the phrase (i.e.,
the phrase will continue playing), but strongly
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.
