Flanger; Phaser; Vibrato; Rotary Speaker - DigiTech RP 150 User Manual

Flanger

A Flanger uses the same principle as a Chorus but uses a shorter delay time and adds regeneration
(or repeats) to the modulating delay. This results in an exaggerated up and down sweeping motion
to the effect. The RP150 includes the following Flanger Effect models: fL (the DigiTech Flanger),
and mx (based on an MXR Flanger).
®
Knobs 2, 3, and 4 have the following functions for the Flanger models:

Phaser (PH)
A phaser splits the incoming signal, and then changes the phasing of the signal. This signal is then
taken in and out of phase and mixed back in with the original signal. As the phasing changes, differ-
ent frequencies get canceled resulting in a warm sort of twisting sound.
Knobs 2, 3, and 4 have the following functions:
Speed - Knob 2 adjusts the rate (Speed) of the modulation. Ranges from 0 to 99.
Depth - Knob 3 adjusts the Depth of the modulation. Ranges from 0 to 99.
Regeneration - Knob 4 controls the regeneration of the effect. Ranges from 0 to 99.
Waveform (X-Edit only) - Selects a waveform: tr, Si, or Sq (Triangle, Sine, or Square).

Level (X-Edit only) - Controls the level of the effect. Ranges from 0 to 99.

Vibrato (vB)
A Vibrato effect modulates the pitch of the incoming signal at an even rate.
Speed - Knob 2 adjusts the rate (Speed) at which the pitch modulates. Ranges from 0 to
99.
Depth - Knob 3 adjusts the intensity (Depth) of the modulating pitch. Ranges from 0 to
99.
Rotary Speaker (RO)
P7
Rotary Speaker is an emulation of a device that included a spinning horn and woofer. The rotation
of these two speakers produced an interesting combination of the sound panning from side to
only)
side. This produced a slight pitch change due to the speed of the sound coming towards, and then
going away from the listener.
Speed- Knob 2 adjusts the rate (Speed) of the spinning speakers. Ranges from 0 to 99.

Intensity - Knob 3 controls the intensity of the effect. Ranges from 0 to 99.
Doppler - Knob 4 controls the Pitch Shift effect that is the ratio between the horn and the
rotor positions. Ranges from 0
Crossover (X-Edit
Ranges from 0 (200 Hz) to 99 (1600 Hz).
Tremolo (tR)
A Tremolo effect modulates the volume of the signal at an even rate.
Speed - Knob 2 adjusts the rate (Speed) at which the volume modulates. Ranges from 0 to
99.
Depth - Knob 3 adjusts the intensity (Depth) of the modulating volume. Ranges from 0 to
99.
Waveform - Knob 4 selects a waveform: tr, Si, or Sq (Triangle, Sine, or Square).
