● Delay
Delay effects create a delayed version of the input signal,
and as such, they can be used for many different purposes,
such as creating a sense of spaciousness or thickening a
sound.
● Miscellaneous
This category contains effect types not included in the
other categories.
■
Effect Parameters
Each of the above-mentioned effects includes a range of
parameters allowing you to adjust the way in which it pro-
cesses the input signal. Using these parameters, the behav-
ior of each effect can be optimized in line with, for
example, the type of sound being processed or the type of
music being played. While the function of each of these
parameters is described in the following table, it is good
practice to also listen to how they actually change the
sound of the respective effect in order to achieve the best
settings.
● Parameters with identical names
• Certain effects contain parameters with identical names yet performing dif-
ferent functions. In the following table, the function of each such parameter
is described separately and the corresponding effects are identified.
*1 The Bottom parameter’s setting is valid only when less than that of
the Top parameter.
*2 The Color parameter’s setting has no effect with certain combina-
tions of Mode and Stage settings.
Effect Type Var Description
CrossDelay ✓
A pair of delays featuring cross-over feed-
back to produce a sound that swirls
between the left and right channels.
TempoCrosDly ✓
A pair of delays with cross-over feedback
and a tempo-synchronized delay time.
TempoDlyMono ✓
A single mono delay synchronized with the
instrument’s tempo.
TempoDlySt ✓
A stereo delay synchronized with the
instrument’s tempo.
Delay LR ✓
A delay with separate left and right chan-
nels.
Delay LCR ✓
A triple delay processing left, right, and
center channels independently.
Delay LR St ✓
A stereo delay with fully independent left
and right channels.
Effect Type Var Description
Isolator ✓
Controls the volume of individual frequency
bands using powerful filters.
Telephone ✓
Reproduces the sound of telephone speech
by cutting high and low frequencies.
TalkingMod ✓
Incorporates a vowel-type formant into the
input signal.
PitchChange ✓ Changes the pitch of the input signal.
Parameter
name
Descriptions
AMDepth
This parameter is used to set the depth of amplitude
modulation.
AmpType
This parameter is used to set the type of amplifier to be
simulated.
Attack
This parameter is used to set the amount of time that
elapses before compression is fully applied.
Bottom* 1
This parameter is used to set the lowest point in the fil-
ter’s sweep range.
Color* 2
This parameter is used to set the fixed phase modula-
tion.
CommonRel
This parameter is used to set the amount of time that
elapses before the compressor stops processing the
input signal (common for all three bands).
Compres
This parameter is used to set the input-signal level at
which the compressor starts to process the sound (i.e.,
the threshold).
Cutoff
This parameter is used to set the offset value for the fil-
ter’s control frequency.
Delay
This parameter is used to set the delay time in terms of
note lengths.
DelayC
This parameter is used to set the delay time for the cen-
ter channel.
DelayL
This parameter is used to set the delay time for the left
channel.
DelayL>R
This parameter is used to set the time that elapses
between input of sound via the left channel and output
via the right channel.
DelayR
This parameter is used to set the delay time for the right
channel.
DelayR>L
This parameter is used to set the time that elapses
between input of sound via the right channel and output
via the left channel.
Density
[Reverb effects other than EarlyRef]
This parameter is used to set the reverb density.
[Early Ref]
This parameter is used to set the density of early reflec-
tions.
Depth
This parameter is used to set the amplitude of the LFO
wave that controls cyclic changes in phase modulation.
Detune
This parameter is used to set the degree to which
pitches are detuned.
Device
This parameter is used to select one of a number of
devices that distort the sound in different ways.
Diffuse
[TempoPhaser and EarlyRef]
This parameter is used to adjust the spaciousness of the
sound produced.
[Reverb effects other than EarlyRef]
This parameter is used to set how wide the reverb
sounds.
Directn
This parameter is used to set the direction of envelope-
follower modulation.
Div.FreqH
This parameter is used to set the mid-high frequency
when splitting the sound into three bands.
Div.FreqL
This parameter is used to set the low-mid frequency
when splitting the sound into three bands.
