PHASER
By adding varied-phase portions to the direct sound, the
phaser effect gives a whooshing, swirling character to the
sound.
Parameter/
Explanation
Range
Type
Selects the number of stages that the phaser effect will use.
This is a four-phase effect. A light phaser
4 Stage
effect is obtained.
This is an eight-phase effect. It is a popular
8 Stage
phaser effect.
This is a twelve-phase effect. A deep phase
12 Stage
effect is obtained.
This is the phaser with two phase shift cir-
Bi-Phase
cuits connected in series.
Rate
0–100,
This sets the rate of the phaser effect.
BPM
–BPM
When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according
to the value of the "Master BPM" (p. 122) specified for each patch.
This makes it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the
tempo of the song.
If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than the range of allowable settings, it
is then synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4 of that time.
Depth
0–100
Determines the depth of the phaser effect.
Manual
Adjusts the center frequency of the phaser
0–100
effect.
Resonance
Determines the amount of resonance (feed-
0–100
back). Increasing the value will emphasize
the effect, creating a more unusual sound.
Step Rate
This sets the cycle of the step function that
changes the rate and depth.
Off, 0–100,
When it is set to a higher value, the change
BPM
–BPM
will be finer. Set this to "Off" when not us-
ing the Step function.
When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according
to the value of the "Master BPM" (p. 122) specified for each patch.
This makes it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the
tempo of the song.
If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than the range of allowable settings, it
is then synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4 of that time.
EffectLev (Effect Level)
0–100
Adjusts the volume of the phaser.
DirectLev (Direct Level)
0–100
Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.
114
FLANGER
The flanging effect gives a twisting, jet-airplane-like character
to the sound.
Parameter/
Explanation
Range
Rate
0–100,
This sets the rate of the flanging effect.
BPM
–BPM
When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according
to the value of the "Master BPM" (p. 122) specified for each patch.
This makes it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the
tempo of the song.
If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than the range of allowable settings, it
is then synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4 of that time.
Depth
0–100
Determines the depth of the flanging effect.
Manual
Adjusts the center frequency at which to
0–100
apply the effect.
Resonance
Determines the amount of resonance (feed-
0–100
back). Increasing the value will emphasize
the effect, creating a more unusual sound.
Sepration (Separation)
Adjusts the diffusion. The diffusion in-
0–100
creases as the value increases.
Low Cut (Low Cut Filter)
This sets the frequency at which the low cut
filter begins to take effect. When "Flat" is
Flat, 55Hz–800Hz
selected, the low cut filter will have no ef-
fect.
EffectLev (Effect Level)
0–100
Adjusts the volume of the flanger.
DirectLev (Direct Level)
0–100
Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.
