The editable parameters will
depend on the effect type
that's selected.
Lets you select the routing of
the Modulation FX and the
Tremolo/Amp Simulator.
By switching the Routing type,
you can change the effect
that's applied to the sound.
For example, suppose that
you chose Chorus as the MOD
FX and chose E.PIANO for TR/
AMP; with the MOD FX 0 TR/
AMP setting the chorus sound
will be output in monaural,
but with the TR/AMP 0 MOD
FX setting it will be output in
stereo.
