NFX-2 Chorus Parameters
The NFX-2 chorus multiplies the sound of a single instrument to sound like it’s playing en ensemble with
itself. This can produce a richer, thicker, more animated sound. The effect is created by slightly delaying the
original sound, detuning its pitch very slightly, then combining this delayed/detuned signal with the original.
Speed:
This controls the rate of the detuning effect provided by the Chorus LFO (low frequency oscillator).
Slower speeds tend to produce a more subtle, “rolling” effect.
Depth:
Sets the amount of detuning that occurs during chorusing. Excessive settings will produce an “out of
tune” effect.
Feedback:
Determines how much of the chorus signal output returns back to the input. More feedback creates
a thicker sound, as the chorused sound is re-circulated and “re-chorused.”
Delay:
Alters the time difference between the start of the original and doubled signal. Longer delays create
more of an echo effect, whereas shorter delays produce a sound more like “flanging.” In between these
extremes is a “sweet spot” that gives the ensemble effect.
