PS (Pitch Shifter)

This effect changes the pitch of the original sound (up or
down) within a range of two octaves.
Parameter/
Explanation
Range
Voice
1-Voice, 2-Mono,
Selects the number of voices for the pitch
2-Stereo
shift sound.
1-Voice
One-voice pitch-shifted sound output in monaural.
2-Mono
Two-voice pitch-shifted sound (PS1, PS2) output in monaural.
2-Stereo
Two-voice pitch-shifted sound (PS1, PS2) output through left and
right channels.
Mode *1
Fast, Medium, Slow,
Selection for the pitch shifter mode.
Mono
A chord can be input with a normal pitch shifter. The response is
slower in the order of Fast, Medium and Slow, but the modulation is
lessened in the same order.
"Mono" is used for inputting single notes.
When the pitch is being changed using Assign (p. 66), this provides
the same effect as a pedal bend.
Pitch *1
Adjusts the amount of pitch shift (the
-24–+24
amount of pitch change) in semitone steps.
Fine *1
-50–+50
Make fine adjustments to the pitch shift.
The amount of the change in the Fine "100" is equivalent to that of
the Pitch "1."
Pre Delay *1
Adjusts the time from when the direct
0 ms –300 ms,
sound is heard until the pitch shifted sounds
are heard. Normally you can leave this set at
BPM
–BPM
"0ms."
* When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according to
the value of the Master BPM (p. 55) specified for each patch. This makes
it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the
song (synchronizing the time to twice or four times the time length of
the BPM when the set time is increased).
When setting to BPM, press PARAMETER [
display the Master BPM settings screen.
Feedback
Adjusts the feedback amount of the pitch
0–100
shift sound.
Level *1
0–100
