Functions and Parameter Descriptions
The Chorus effect in the MultiValve is produced by detuning two delayed signals
(Voice 1 and Voice 2), then modulating the detune effect so that the amount of pitch
detune is constantly varying. Using different detune amounts, modulation rates, modula-
tion depths and pan settings for each delayed signal will produce a greater perceived
spaciousness.
The PARAMETER SELECT control will allow you to access each of the following
Chorus parameters:
CHORUS
Function
The CHORUS I/O parameter determines whether the chorus circuit is active or
bypassed for the current preset.
The CHORUS OUTPUT 1 parameter determines the volume of Voice 1.
This parameter allows you to pan Voice 1 to the left or right channel.
The CHORUS DEPTH 1 parameter adjusts the amount of modulation of the
Voice 1 signal. A lower depth setting will produce a more subtle detune effect,
while a higher setting results in a more extreme detuning of Voice 1.
The CHORUS RATE 1 parameter determines the sweep speed (or the speed at
which Voice 1 is modulated).
This parameter allows you to select the minimum delay time (in milliseconds)
for Voice 1. This delayed signal (along with Voice 2) is detuned and modulated
to produce the chorus effect. Using shorter delay times will result in a tighter
sounding chorused signal, while longer delay times will produce a larger
ambient effect.
The TIME 1 parameter determines the multiplier by which a new modulation
rate will be selected for the RATE 1 parameter when the Tap Delay feature of
the MultiValve is used.
The CHORUS OUTPUT 2 parameter determines the volume of Voice 2.
This parameter allows you to pan Voice 2 to the left or right channel.
The CHORUS DEPTH 2 parameter adjusts the amount of modulation of the
Voice 2 signal. A lower depth setting will produce a more subtle detune effect,
while a higher setting will produce a more extreme detuning of Voice 2.
The CHORUS RATE 2 parameter determines the sweep speed (or the speed at
which Voice 2 is modulated).
This parameter allows you to select the minimum delay time (in milliseconds)
for Voice 2. This delayed signal (along with Voice 1) is detuned and modulated
to produce the chorus effect. Using shorter delay times will result in a tighter
sounding chorused signal, while longer delay times will produce a larger
ambient effect.
The TIME 2 parameter determines the multiplier by which a new modulation
rate will be selected for the RATE 2 parameter when the Tap Delay feature of
the MultiValve is used. (See Section 7: "Tap Delay" for more information on the
Tap Delay feature.)
