Cyclically modulates the stereo location of the sound.
fig.MFX-18a
This uses a 16-step sequence to vary the panning of the sound.
fig.MFX-19
By applying successive cuts to the sound, this effect turns a
conventional sound into a sound that appears to be played as a
backing phrase. This is especially effective when applied to sustain-
type sounds.

LEGATO,
SLASH
Sets the manner in which the volume chang-
es as one step progresses to the next.
LEGATO: The change in volume from one
step’s level to the next remains unaltered.
If the level of a following step is the same
as the one preceding it, there is no
change in volume.
SLASH: The level is momentarily set to 0
before progressing to the level of the next
step. This change in volume occurs even
if the level of the following step is the
same as the preceding step.
Shuffle 0–127
Timing of volume changes in levels for even-
numbered steps (step 2, step 4, step 6...).
The higher the value, the later the beat
progresses.
