Adding Effects
25: STEP FLANGER
This is a flanger in which the flanger pitch changes in steps. The
speed at which the pitch changes can also be specified in terms of a
note-value of a specified tempo.

Explanation
Type of filter
OFF: no filter is used
LPF: cuts the frequency
range above the Cutoff Freq
HPF: cuts the frequency
range below the Cutoff Freq
Basic frequency of the filter
Adjusts the delay time from
when the direct sound begins
until the flanger sound is
heard.
Frequency of modulation
Depth of modulation
Spatial spread of the sound
Adjusts the proportion of the
flanger sound that is fed back
into the effect. Negative (-) set-
tings will invert the phase.
Rate (period) of pitch change
Gain of the low range
Gain of the high range
Volume balance between the
direct sound (D) and the
flanger sound (W)

Explanation
Adjusts the delay time from the
direct sound until the chorus
sound is heard.
Frequency of modulation
Depth of modulation
Adjusts the differences in Pre
Delay between each chorus
sound.
Adjusts the difference in modu-
lation depth between each cho-
rus sound.
Parameter Value
Pan Deviation 0–20
Balance # D100:0W–D0:100W
Level 0–127
27: TREMOLO CHORUS
This is a chorus effect with added Tremolo (cyclic modulation of
volume).

28: SPACE-D
This is a multiple chorus that applies two-phase modulation in
stereo. It gives no impression of modulation, but produces a
transparent chorus effect.

Explanation
Adjusts the difference in stereo
location between each chorus
sound.
0: All chorus sounds will be in
the center.
20: Each chorus sound will be
spaced at 60 degree intervals
relative to the center.
