-16-
ECHO – this effect adds echo to the music also based upon the Beatkeeper™.
The start parameter is no echo “0”. If you move the wheel to the right the
numbers will go 1-64, 1-32, 1-16, 1-8, 1-4, 1-2, and 1-1 indicating the amount
of echo added to the unit. If you move the wheel to the left you will create
negative or preceding echo. This essentially plays the music before you get to
it. At 1-1 the music will echo 1 full measure or
4 beats of music. If you turn off the effect then
back on again it remembers the last set
parameter.
(Note: a preceding echo requires the unit to play
from buffer memory. If the buffer becomes
unavailable the effect will stop until buffer is
regained.)
A.D. (Artificial-Dissemination) – Reduces the bit rate of the music creating
increasing distortion with intensity.
CHOP – This effect works best when the Beatkeeper™ is properly aligned.
Chop breaks up the music by turning the volume on and off based upon the
BPM of the Beatkeeper™. First activation of the effect plays 1/8th note or half
of every beat. In the BPM display will indicate an 1-8 which means one
measure (4 beats) of music has been broken into 8 parts. Rotation of the
wheel to the left decreases the parts to 1-4, 1-2, and 1-1. At 1-1 the music
plays for 4 beats then is silent. Rotating to the right breaks up the music into
1-16, 1-32, 1-64, then smaller increments making for another interesting
effect. When the effect is first activated the
music will play the section then turn off for a
section. This is important because you can
reverse the sections that are off and on by
activating the effect in the other section. If you
deactivate the effect then turn it on again it
remembers the last set parameter.
PAN - This effect also works best when the Beatkeeper™ is properly aligned.
Auto-pan alternates playing right and left audio based upon the BPM of the
Beatkeeper™. First activation of the effect plays alternates on 1/8th notes or
half of every beat. In the BPM display will indicate an 1-8 which means one
measure (4 beats) of music has been broken
into 8 parts. Rotation of the wheel to the left
decreases the parts to 1-4, 1-2, and 1-1.
Rotating to the right makes faster changes of
1-16, 1-32, 1-64, then smaller increments
making for another interesting effect. If you
deactivate the effect then turn it on again it
remembers the last set parameter.
