Pedal Bend; 2X2 Chorus; Low Rate; Low Depth - Roland VG-99 Owner's Manual

Chapter 9 Parameters Guide

PEDAL BEND

This lets you use the pedal to get a pitch bend effect.
* Because of the need to analyze the pitch, chords (two or more sounds
played simultaneously) cannot be played.

FC-300" (p. 52)
Parameter/
Explanation
Range
PITCH MIN (Pitch Minimum )
-24–+24 This sets the pitch at the point where the ex-
pression pedal is fully lifted.
PITCH MAX (Pitch Maximum )
-24–+24 This sets the pitch at the point where the ex-
pression pedal is all the way down.
PEDAL POS (Pedal Position)
0–100 Adjusts the pedal position for pedal bend.
* This parameter is used after it's been
assigned to an expression pedal or similar
controller.
EFFECT LEVEL
0–100 Adjusts the volume of the pitch bend sound.
DIRECT LEVEL
0–100 Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.

2x2 CHORUS

Frequency band division is employed to produce two different
choruses, one for low frequencies and one for higher frequencies, for
both the left and right channels (for a total of four). This allows you
to achieve a more natural chorus sound.
Parameter/
Explanation
Range
X-OVER FREQ (Crossover Frequency)
100 Hz–4.00 kHz This sets the frequency dividing the low-
and high-frequency ranges.

LOW RATE

0–100, Adjust the speed of the chorus effect for the
low frequency range.
BPM –BPM
When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according
to the value of the BPM (p. 163) specified for each patch. This makes
it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the
song.
* If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than the range of allowable
settings, it is then synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4 of that
time.

LOW DEPTH

0–100 Adjust the depth of the chorus effect for the
low frequency range. If you wish to use this
as a doubling effect, use a setting of 0.
LOW PREDLY (Low Pre Delay)
0.0 ms–40.0 ms Adjusts the delay of the effect sound in the
low-frequency range.
Extending the pre-delay will produce the
sensation of multiple sounds (doubling ef-
fect).

LOW LEVEL

0–100 Adjusts the volume of the effect sound in
the low-frequency range.

HIGH RATE

0–100, Adjust the speed of the chorus effect for the
high frequency range.
BPM –BPM
When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according
to the value of the BPM (p. 163) specified for each patch. This makes
it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the
song.
* If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than the range of allowable
settings, it is then synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4 of that
time.

HIGH DEPTH

0–100 Adjust the depth of the chorus effect for the
high frequency range. If you wish to use this
as a doubling effect, use a setting of 0.
HIGH PREDLY (High Pre Delay)
0.0 ms–40.0 ms Adjusts the delay of the effect sound in the
high-frequency range.
Extending the pre-delay will produce the
sensation of multiple sounds (doubling ef-
fect).

HIGH LEVEL

0–100 Adjusts the volume of the effect sound in
the high-frequency range.
