12Stage:
This is a twelve-stage phaser. This produces a phase effect
with greater depth.
Bi-Phase:
This is a phaser effect in which two phase shift circuits are
connected in series.
Rate
This sets the rate of the phaser effect.
* When set to BPM, the value of each parameter is set according
to the value of the Master BPM (p. 44) specified for each patch.
This makes it easy to achieve effect sound settings that match
the tempo of the song (synchronizing the cycle to one-half or
one-fourth of the BPM when the set cycle rate is increased).
When setting to the BPM, press PARAMETER [
display the Master BPM settings screen.
Depth
Determines the depth of the phaser effect. The swirling effect
spreads out more as the value is increased.
Manual
Adjusts the center frequency for the phaser effect. The
swirling effect occurs in a higher range of frequencies as the
value is increased.
Resonance
Adjusts the resonance (the amount of feedback). Increasing
the value emphasizes the effect, creating a more unusual
sound.
Step
This turns the step function on and off. When the step
function is turned on, changes in the sound occur in steps.
Step Rate
This adjusts the rate at which the step effect occurs. Raising
the value increases the resolution (steps are shorter).
* When set to BPM, the value of each parameter is set according
to the value of the Master BPM (p. 44) specified for each patch.
This makes it easy to achieve effect sound settings that match
the tempo of the song (synchronizing the cycle to one-half or
one-fourth of the BPM when the set cycle rate is increased).
When setting to the BPM, press PARAMETER [
