Effect related

When a VS8F-1 effect expansion board is installed, a single
VS-880 now allows you to use two stereo effects.
Please read the VS8F-1 ownerÕs manual together with this
explanation.

Reverb 2
This is a reverb that provides a gating function and a duck-
ing function. It can be used in either EFFECT-1 or EFFECT-
2. You can use two reverbs with different settings, or use it
in combination with a previous reverb.

to take effect. With a setting of Thru, the high pass filter will
not function.

to take effect. With a setting of Thru, the low pass filter will
not function.

Room2: Room reverb with a softer tone than Room1.
Hall1: Normal hall reverb.
Hall2: Hall reverb with a softer tone than Hall1.

Gate: The gate will begin to open when the direct
signal level exceeds the threshold level, and
will begin to close when it falls below the
threshold level.
Ducking: The function will be the opposite of the Gate
setting. The gate will begin to close when the
direct signal level exceeds the threshold level,
and will begin to open when it falls below the
threshold level.
