09: Dynamic Processor
(Stereo Dynamic Processor)
A comp/limiter, enhancer, 3-band equalizer, and noise suppressor
are connected in series.
Comp/Limiter is able to use as a compressor, which controls
inconsistencies in sound levels by suppressing high sound levels
while lifting weaker signals, or as a limiter that prevents the signal
from reaching exceedingly high levels.
Enhancer regulates the high-end overtones, clarifying the sound and
the sound contour.
3-Band Equalizer works in three frequency ranges: Low, Mid, and
High. You can set the frequencies and boost or cut the level.
Noise Suppressor leaves the original sound unmodified, but mutes
only the noise during the silent intervals.

EQ Suppressor
Description
Turns the comp/limiter on/off.
Sets the volume level at which
the compression begins.
Sets the time after the sound vol-
ume is crossed the compressor
threshold until compression be-
gins.
Specifies the time from when the
volume drops below the com-
pressor threshold until com-
pression is no longer applied.
Sets the "source sound:output
sound" compression ratio.
Output gain
Turns the enhancer on/off.
Sensitivity of the enhancer
Sets the lower limit of the fre-
quencies to which the enhance-
ment effect is added.

Turns the noise suppressor on/
off.
Adjusts the level at which the
noise suppressor will begin to
take effect.
* When the signal drops below
the specified level, it will be
muted.

10: Tape Echo Simulator
This virtual tape echo gives you real tape delay sound. This
simulates the tape echo part of Roland's RE-201 Space Echo.

Effects List
Description
Sets the transition time from
when the noise suppression
starts to the point where the vol-
ume reaches 0.
Description
Sets the combination of play-
back heads to be used.
The RE-201 had three playback
heads to make different delay
times (Short, Medium, and Long
delay) at once. For example, to
use the short and middle heads,
select S+M.
Sets the tape speed.
This corresponds to the delay
time in a contemporary delay ef-
fect.
Sets the repeat times of the de-
layed sound.
This is analogous to a contempo-
rary delay's feedback setting.
These are the echo sound's bass
and treble adjustments.
When set to 0, they make no
change to the sound.
These are the pan (left-right) set-
tings for each of the heads for
Short, Medium, and Long delay
time.
* This parameter does not
appear on the original RE-201.
Adds the distortion characteris-
tic of tape.
The distortion gets more intense
as the value is increased.
Frequency of the wow and flut-
ter modulation
The wavering of multiple pitch-
es that appears from tape wear
and irregularities in rotation is
called wow and flutter.
Modulation depth of the wow
and flutter
Volume of the echo sound.
