Determines the output level of the effect.

LVL (Output Level: -42 —

*6

dB)

Sets the balance between the direct and effect sound.

Higher values produce a greater proportion of effect sound

in relation to direct sound.

MIX (Mixing Balance: 0 —100 %)

MODULATION (MOD)

The MODULATION effect stage contains a number of

effects based on amplitude and delay modulation. The
different MODULATION effects are selected by the TYP

(type) parameter which appears at the left of every

MODULATION display screen.

TYP (Typo: Cho, Fig, Sym, Trm)

This parameter is common.to all modulation programs, and

is used to select the desired effect. The various modulation

effects are indicated by the following abbreviations;

Cho: Chorus

Fig:

Flanger

Sym: Symphonic

Trm: Tremolo

Each modulatbn effect has a slightly different set of

parameters. The parameters for each type are described

below.

• Chorus (Cho)

The chorus effect combines delay time and amplitude

modulation to effectively thicken and add warmth to the

sound.

SPED (Modulation Speed: 0.1 — 20.0 Hz)

Sets the speed of modulation and therefore the rate of

effect variation.

PMD (Pitch Modulation Depth: 0 —100 %)

Sets the depth of delay time modulation. Higher values

deepen the pitch modulation portion of the effect.

AMD (Amplitude Modulation Depth: 0 — 100 %)

Sets the dept^of amplitude modulation. Higher values

deepen the amplitude modulation portion of the effect.

LVL (Output Level: -42 — »6 dB)

Determines the output level of the effect.

• Flanger (Fig)

Flanging is a fairly pronounced effect based primarily on

delay time modulation. By adjusting the various

parameters you should be able to create an extremely
broad range of sounds, from gentle shimmering to wild

sweeps.

SPED (Modulation Speed: 0.1 — 20.0 Hz)

Sets the speed of modulation and therefore the rate of

effect variation.

PEP (Depth: 0 — 100%)

Sets the depth of modulation. Higher values produce

deeper modulation.

PLY (Delay Time: 0.2 —15.0 ms)

Sets the delay time. Delay times shorter than 1 msec

produce the greatest effect in the high-frequency range,

while with delay times from 1 to 3 ms the effect extends to

the middle frequencies.

FB (Feedback: 0 — 100 %)

Determines the amount of effect-sound feedback returned

to the input of the processor. Higher values produce a

more pronounced effect.

MIX (Mixing Balance: 0 — 100 %)

Sets the balance between the direct and effect sound.
Higher values produce a greater proportion of effect sound

in relation to direct sound.

LVL (Output Level: -42 — -t-O dB)

Determines the output level of the effect.
