Information That You Will Find Useful
Compressor Limiter
Depending on the setting of the parameters, this
effect can be used as a compressor or as a limiter. A
compressor holds down high-level signals and boosts
low-level signals, evening out the volume. A limiter is
used when you wish to hold down excessive input
levels.
CL Sw (switch)
Turns the compressor limiter effect on/off.
Adjusts the level at which the effect will begin to apply. To use
CL Threshold
this effect as a limiter, set a high Threshold Level.
Select the compression ratio that will apply when the
CL Ratio
Threshold Level is exceeded. When using the effect as a
limiter, you will normally set this to "inf.:1."
Adjust the time from when the input level exceeds the
CL Attack
threshold level to when the effect begins to apply. When using
the effect as a limiter, set a short Attack Time.
Adjust the time from when the input level drops below the
CL Release
threshold level to when the effect ceases to apply. When using
the effect as a limiter, set a short Release Time.
CL Post Gain
Adjusts the output gain.
CL Level
Adjusts the volume.
Compression Sustainer
The compression sustainer is an effect that attenuates
loud input levels and boosts soft input levels, thus
evening out the volume to create sustain without
distortion.
CS Sw (switch)
Turns the compression sustainer effect on/off.
Adjusts the range (time) over which low-level signals are
CS Sustain
boosted. Larger values will result in longer sustain.
Adjust the time from when the input level exceeds the
CS Attack
threshold level to when the effect begins to apply.
CS Level
Adjusts the volume.
De-esser
A de-esser cuts the sibilant sounds of a voice,
producing a gentler tone.
DE Sw (switch)
Turns the de-esser effect on/off.
Adjusts the degree to which the de-esser effect will affect the
DE Sens (sensitivity)
input signal.
DE Level
Adjusts the volume.
64
Distortion
This effect distorts the sound to create long sustain.
DS Sw (switch)
Turns the distortion effect on/off.
Selects the type of distortion.
OD-1:
A natural overdrive sound is obtained.
OD-2:
Allows you to obtain a rich effect just like
distortion, without losing the subtle nuance of the
overdrive.
Blues:
The processed distortion can faithfully reproduce
DS Type
the tone changes created by picking nuances, or
controlling the knobs on the guitar.
Hard Dist: Allows you to obtain a distortion sound with a rich
middle.
Metal:
A distortion for a powerful metal sound.
Crunch:
Allows you to obtain a crunch effect that creates a
natural distortion.
Fuzz:
This produces a basic fuzz sound with.
Adjusts the depth of distortion. A higher value will emphasize
DS Drive
the distortion.
DS Presence
Adjusts the tone for the ultra high frequency range.
DS Level
Adjusts the volume.
Enhancer
By adding sounds which are out-of-phase with the
direct sound, this effect enhances the definition of the
sound, and pushes it to the forefront.
EH Sw (switch)
This parameter turns the enhancer effect on/off.
Adjusts the manner in which the enhancer will be applied
EH Sens (sensitivity)
relative to the input signals.
Adjust the amount of the phase-shifted sound that is mixed
EH Mix (mix level)
into the input.
EH Level
Adjusts the volume.
Equalizer
Adjusts the tone. Parametric control is provided for
the middle range.
EQ Sw (switch)
Switches the equalizer effect on/off.
EQ High Gain
Adjusts the high frequency range tone.
EQ Mid Freq
Specify the center of the frequency range that will be adjusted
(middle frequency)
by the "EQ Mid Gain."
Adjusts the width of the area affected by the EQ centered at
EQ Mid Q (middle Q)
the "EQ Mid Freq." Higher values will narrow the area.
EQ Mid Gain
Adjusts the middle frequency range tone.
(middle gain)
EQ Low Gain
Adjusts the low-middle frequency range tone.
EQ Level
Adjusts the volume.
