Synthesizer)
Depending on the selected effect type, the content of
parameters 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 changes.
When using this effect, play only single notes. If a
NOTE
chord is played, the pitch cannot be detected
correctly.
Type 1 BASS SYNTH 1
(Bass Synthesizer 1)
This effect type produces a sawtooth-wave mono
synthesizer sound from single notes played on the
bass guitar.
Parameter 1 Freq
Determines the center frequency for the filter that is
used to shape the synthesizer sound.
Parameter 2 Reso
Adds a special character to the filter effect.
Parameter 3 Decay
Determines the speed with which the range
emphasized by the filter shifts up or down.

Type 2 BASS SYNTH 2
(Bass Synthesizer 2)
This effect type produces a pulsating square-wave
mono synthesizer sound from single notes played on
the bass guitar. The parameter content is the same as
for Type 1 (BASS SYNTH 1).
Type 3 BASS SYNTH 3
(Bass Synthesizer 3)
This effect type is a variation of Type 1, with the
synthesizer sound as octave unison. The parameter
content is the same as for Type 1 (BASS SYNTH 1).
Type 4 BASS SYNTH 4
(Bass Synthesizer 4)
This effect type is a variation of Type 1, with the
synthesizer sound mixed with a noise component.
The parameter content is the same as for Type 1
(BASS SYNTH 1).
Type 5 BASS SYNTH 5
(Bass Synthesizer 5)
This effect type yields a portamento type synthesizer
sound with a smooth pitch glide. Except for
parameter 3, parameter contents are the same as for
