Vibrato Controls
Knob 1: Speed
Controls the modulation rate of Vibrato.
Knob 2: Depth
Controls the maximum amount of pitch
shift. Lower settings result in a mere “war-
ble,” while higher settings produce a more
exaggerated “wow” sound.
Knob 3: Phase
This control sets left and right channel
waveforms out of phase, resulting in a left-
to-right panning motion.
This effect shifts the frequency spectrum of
the input signal. Altering the pitch of a
sound produces a wide range effects -
from subtle detunes to full interval shifts up
or down a two octave range. The MX200’s
Pitch Shift effect is a chromatic shifter,
meaning all notes of the scale are shifted
by the same interval. Pitch Shift is very
useful with guitar tracks, monophonic synth
lines, or where special vocal effects are
needed.
Pitch Shift Controls
Knob 1: Shift Amount
Determines the amount of pitch shifting.
Range is 0-24 semitones (2 octaves).
Knob 2: Down/Up Shift
Determines whether the pitch shifting is up
or down from the original signal.
Knob 3: Cutoff Frequency
This controls the cutoff frequency of the
low pass filter. Lower settings roll off high
frequency response.
Detune adds a slightly pitch-shifted version
of the original source, thickening the
sound. This creates a particularly effective
simulation of “double-tracking.” This effect
is also a great alternative to the Chorus
effect, adding the richness of a chorus
without the audible sweep caused by the
chorus rate.
Detune Controls
Knob 1: Left Shift Amount
Determines the detune amount of the Left
input, from -24 cents to +24 cents.
Knob 2: Right Shift Amount
Determines the detune amount of the
Right input, from -24 cents to +24 cents.
Knob 3: Stereo Spread
Higher values increase the perceived dis-
tance of the detuned voices in the stereo
field.
