Effects Descriptions
Here is an introduction to the ME-30's built-in effects and their parameters.
Following is a description of the effects shown in the "effect area" of the liquid crystal display (refer to page 7). Additionally, there
are a number of controls (equivalent to compact effect knobs) for adjusting the sound qualities, or parameters, for each effect.
