When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according
to the value of the BPM (p. 142) 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.

Explanation
Turns the CHORUS effect on/off.
This chorus effect outputs the same sound
from both L channel and R channel.
This is a stereo chorus effect that adds differ-
ent chorus sounds to L channel and R
channel.
This stereo chorus uses spatial synthesis,
with the direct sound output in the L
channel and the effect sound output in the R
channel.
Adjusts the rate of the chorus effect.
–BPM
Adjusts the depth of the chorus effect.
To use it for doubling effect, set the
value to 0.
Adjusts the time needed for the effect sound
to be output after the direct sound has been
output. By setting a longer pre delay time,
you can obtain an effect that sounds like
more than one sound is being played at the
same time (doubling effect).
This lets you cut the low-end component be-
low the set frequency to create a clear, dis-
tinct low end, thereby bringing out the high
end of the effect. When FLAT is selected, the
low cut filter will have no effect.
cutting the high-end component above the
set frequency. When FLAT is selected, the
high cut filter will have no effect.
Adjusts the volume of the effect sound.
