Modulation (Mod) 1 And 2 Blocks; Chorus; Flanger; Pitch Shift - Yamaha GW33 Owner's Manual

Modulation (MOD) 1 and 2 Blocks

MOD 1
MOD 2
The Modulation blocks feature a wide range of modulation
and pitch change effects, including Chorus, Flanger,
Phaser, Pitch Shift and Detune. Exciter, Touch Wah and
Pedal Wah effects are also available. Modulation 1 and 2
have the same set of effects, and since each block is
independent, two different Modulation effects can be used
at the same time.
All Modulation effects, excepting Pitch Shift, Exciter,
Touch Wah and Pedal Wah, are in stereo. (However,
Pitch Shift can be used in stereo if both blocks are set to
that effect.)

Type
Chorus uses modulation of the pitch and separation of the
signal into stereo to greatly enhance the sound, generally
making it richer, fatter and warmer.
B Speed Range: 1 – 16
Determines the speed of the pitch modulation. The higher
the value, the greater the speed.
C Depth Range: 1 – 16
Determines the depth of the pitch modulation, or how
widely the pitch is varied. The higher the value, the
greater the pitch depth.

Flanger is a stereo effect that uses modulation to create an
1 2 1 2
1 2 1 2
animated, swirling motion effect. It is effective in empha-
1 2 1 2
1 2 1 2
sizing the metallic sound of a guitar.
