Adding effects
43: SLICER
By applying successive cuts to the sound, this effect produces what
are heard as backing phrases, even though you've played something
much simpler. This is especially effective when applied to sustain-
type sounds.

Description
Selects a pattern to specify the
timing at which the sound will
be cut.
Specifies the location of the ac-
cents.
Adjusts the volume of the ac-
cents.
As this setting is increased, the
accent will be more pronounced.
Adjusts the attack time of an in-
put sound.
As this setting is increased, the
attack will become faster.
This sets the period for the pat-
tern.
Specifies whether the timing
pattern at which the sound is cut
will be reset (ON) or not (OFF)
when you play a sound.
While the rhythm guide is play-
ing, the period for the pattern is
not reset even if you set this ON.
Adjusts the output level.

Description
TRI: The sound will be modulat-
ed like a triangle wave.
SQR: The sound will be modu-
lated like a square wave.
SIN: The sound will be modulat-
ed like a sine wave.
SAW1/2: The sound will be
modulated like a sawtooth
wave. The teeth in SAW1 and
SAW2 point at opposite direc-
tions.
