Effects List

Effect Type Explanation
This is a four-band stereo equalizer (low, high).
Equalizer
Spectrum This is a stereo spectrum.
Enhancer Adds sparkle and tightness to the sound.
Adds a special effect to the sound by cutting the
Isolator
volume in varying ranges.
Boosts the volume of the lower range, creating
Low Boost
powerful lows.
This is a low-cut filter. It cuts the low-frequency
High Pass Filter
component.
Creates a soft distortion similar to that produced
Overdrive
by vacuum tube amplifiers.
Produces a more intense distortion than Over-
Distortion
drive.
This is an overdrive that provides heavy distor-
Overdrive2
tion.
This is a distortion effect that provides heavy dis-
Distortion2
tortion.
Speaker Simulates the speaker type and mic settings used
Simulator to record the speaker sound.
Guitar Amp This is an effect that simulates the sound of a guitar
Simulator amplifier.
A phase-shifted sound is added to the original
Phaser
sound and modulated.
Multi Stage Extremely high settings of the phase difference
Phaser produce a deep phaser effect.
A phaser that continues raising/lowering the fre-
Infinite Phaser
quency at which the sound is modulated.
It produces a metallic resonance that rises and falls
Stereo Flanger
like a jet airplane taking off or landing.
3D Flanger This applies a 3D effect to the flanger sound.
A flanger that lets you apply an effect indepen-
2Band Flanger dently to the low-frequency and high-frequency
ranges.
Cyclically controls a filter to create cyclic change in
Auto Wah
timbre.
Adds a vowel character to the sound, making it
Humanizer
similar to a human voice.
This is an effect that applies amplitude modulation
Ring Modulator (AM) to the input signal, producing bell-like
sounds.
Cyclically modulates the volume to add tremolo
Tremolo
effect to the sound.
Cyclically modulates the stereo location of the
Auto Pan
sound.
By applying successive cuts to the sound, this ef-
Slicer fect turns a conventional sound into a sound that
appears to be played as a backing phrase.
Flattens out high levels and boosts low levels,
Compressor
smoothing out fluctuations in volume.
Compresses signals that exceed a specified volume
Limiter
level, preventing distortion from occurring.
Stereo Chorus This is a stereo chorus.
Uses a six-phase chorus (six layers of chorused
Hexa Chorus sound) to give richness and spatial spread to the
sound.
This is a chorus effect with added Tremolo (cyclic
Tremolo Chorus
modulation of volume).
Space D Produces a transparent chorus effect.
3D Chorus This applies a 3D effect to the chorus sound.

Effect Type Explanation
A chorus effect that lets you apply an effect inde-
2 Band Chorus pendently to the low-frequency and high-frequen-
cy ranges.
The Rotary effect simulates the sound of the rotary
Rotary speakers often used with the electric organs of the
past.
This type provides modified response for the rota-
Rotary2
ry speaker, with the low end boosted further.
It comprises vibrato/chorus, overdrive, and rotary
Rotary Multi
effects.
This is a stereo delay. The delay time is set to a
Stereo Delay1
length of one eighth note.
This is a stereo delay. The delay time is set to a
Stereo Delay2
length of one quarter-note triplet.
This is a stereo delay. The delay time is set to a
Stereo Delay3
length of one dotted eighth note.
This is a stereo delay. The delay time is set to a
Stereo Delay4
length of one quarter note.
This is a stereo delay. The delay time is set to a
Stereo Delay5
length of one half note.
Monaural Delay This is a monaural delay.
Modulation
Adds modulation to the delayed sound.
Delay
Triple Tap Delay Produces three delay sounds; center, left and right.
3D Delay This applies a 3D effect to the delay sound.
A virtual tape echo that produces a realistic tape
Tape Echo
delay sound.
This is a reverse delay that adds a reversed and de-
Reverse Delay
layed sound to the input sound.
This is an effect that intentionally degrades the
Lo-Fi
sound quality for creative purposes.
Telephone This applies a telephone sound.
This is a special type of reverb in which the rever-
Gate Reverb
berant sound is cut off before its natural length.

On an acoustic piano, holding down the damper
pedal allows other strings to resonate in sympathy

with the notes you play, creating rich and spacious
Resonance
resonances. This effect simulates these damper
resonances.
