Effect Module 2: Equalizer (EQ)

This effect module comprises four effect types to control the
tonal character of the sound.
EQ (Equalizer)
1
This is an equalizer with independent boost/cut for the high,
mid, and low frequency range. The mid-range control is a
parametric type allowing the user to freely select the center
frequency.
Parameter 1 HIGH
Parameter 2 MID
Parameter 3 MID f
Parameter 4 LOW
Parameter 5 LEVEL
Explanation
(1)HI (high range): Adjusts the high frequency range. A
value of 0 (zero) signifies flat response. The higher the
value, the stronger is the high frequency boost.
(2)MID (midrange): Adjusts the mid frequency range. A
value of 0 (zero) signifies flat response. The higher the
value, the stronger the mid frequency boost.
(3)MID f (midrange frequency): Determines the center
frequency for cut/boost. The higher the value, the higher
is the center frequency.
(4)LOW (low range): Adjusts the low frequency range. A
value of 0 (zero) signifies flat response. The higher the
value, the stronger the low frequency boost.
(5)LEVEL: Determines the EQ module output level.

Equalizer Operation
The LEVEL parameter allows compensation for the
HINT
change in output level due to a tone boost or cut.
When HIGH, MID, and LOW are all at the flat
setting, the LEVEL setting "5" produces the same
volume as EQ OFF.
If LEVEL is set too high, internal clipping may lead
NOTE
to distortion. Adjust the LEVEL parameter to match
the input level.

AMP SIM (Amp simulator)

2
This effect simulates the sound of a guitar amplifier. By
combining it with the PRE module, the sound of picking up
a guitar amp with a microphone can be convincingly recre-
ated.

Parameter 1 COLOR
Parameter 2 BOX
Parameter 3 DEPTH
Parameter 4 TONE
Parameter 5 LEVEL
Explanation
(1)COLOR: Determines the frequency response of the
simulated amplifier.
1: Flat response
2: Vintage tube amplifier with emphasized midrange
3: Modern amplifier with extended high and low range
(2)BOX: Determines the type of simulated speaker
enclosure.
1: Stack
2: Combo
3: Compact
(3)DEPTH: Determines the amount of speaker box ringing.
Higher values will result in pronounced ringing which
occurs when an amplifier is operating at a loud volume.
When set to 0 (zero), there is no such speaker box
ringing, regardless of the selected box type.
AUTO WAH
3
This is an auto wah effect where the emphasized frequency
range changes according to the dynamics of the input signal.

Parameter 1 FREQ
Parameter 2 SENS
Parameter 5 LEVEL
Explanation
(1)FREQ (Frequency): Determines the reference
frequency.
(2)SENS (Sensitivity): Determines the sensitivity of the
auto wah effect. The bigger the value, the bigger the
frequency change even at low volume levels.
