THE BLOCKS

the waveform starting points. This means that left and
right outputs start the current waveform at two different
points.
Example: If LFO phase is set 180º, left and right will be
exactly opposite.

LFO PHASE

Mix
Mix between direct sound and effect.

Inlevel
Controls the input level of the block.

Mute mode
See Mute mode in the introduction of this chapter.

Flanger Classic

The Classic Flanger uses a relationship between
Speed and Depth called the Golden Ratio. The G-
Force inherited this from the TC 2290.

FLANGER CLASSIC

Speed
The speed of the Flanger, also known as Rate.

Tempo
The Tempo parameter sets the relationship to the
global Tempo e.g. if you set it to 1/4T you will get
quarter note triplets of the tapped tempo. 1/4 equals
the BPM (tapped Tempo).
If you select “Ignored” the current parameter will use
the Preset value and will not be affected by the Global
Tempo.

Advanced Chorus

Advanced Chorus adds some extra parameters like
LFO Phase and Curve.

Speed
The speed of the Chorus, also known as Rate.

Tempo
The Tempo parameter sets the relationship to the
global Tempo e.g. if you set it to 1/4T you will get
quarter note triplets of the tapped tempo. 1/4 equals
the BPM (tapped Tempo).
If you select “Ignored” the current parameter will use
the Preset value and will not be affected by the Global
Tempo.

Depth
Adjusts the depth of the Chorus, also known as
Intensity.

Delay
As described earlier, a Chorus/Flanger is basically a
Delay being modulated by an LFO. This parameter
makes it possible to change the length of that Delay. A
typical Chorus uses delays at approximately 10 ms,
while a Flanger uses delays at around 5 ms.

Golden Ratio
Sets the Golden Ratio between Speed and Depth
On/Off. If you want to create wild Chorus sounds you
may want to turn the Golden Ratio off.

Phase Reversed
Reverses the phase of the right channel, but only on
the effect signal. This function makes the stereo image
much wider.

LFO Curve
Sets the curve of the LFO. Choose between: Sine or
Triangle.
The most commonly used waveform in Chorus is Sine.
(see curve figures in Tremolo)

LFO Phase
An LFO phase change causes a small delay in one of
