+0.99–+0.01:
Play at a lower speed.
0.00:
Don't play.
-0.01–-0.99:
Play backward at a lower

Step:
Decay begins after a specified
number of steps.
Specifies the time until decay begins
when Hold Mode = Time.
* The duration of the sound will be
Attack + Hold Time + Decay.
Specifies the number of steps until
decay begins when Hold Mode = Step.
* The duration of the sound will be Hold
Step + Decay (Attack changes within
Hold Step).
Selects the type of filter.
Adjusts the cutoff frequency of the
filter.
Adjusts the amount of filter resonance.
Specifies the attack time for the

Explanation
No INST FX effect is applied.
High-pass filter (cuts the low-
frequency region)
Low-pass filter (cuts the high-
frequency region)
Low-pass filter / High-pass filter (cuts
the high or low-frequency region)
High boost (boosts the high-frequency
region)
Low boost (boosts the low-frequency
region)
Low boost / High boost (boosts the
low or high-frequency region)
Adjusts the balance of the low, mid,
and high-frequency regions.
Emphasizes or softens the attack and
release.
Compresses loud input, making the
maximum levels more consistent.
Uncolored distortion.
Applies COMPRESSOR and then
applies DRIVE (monaural).
Produces a lo-fi effect (monaural).
Specifies the cutoff frequency.
Increasing the Cutoff value raises the
cutoff frequency, deepening the HPF
effect.
Specifies the amount of resonance.
Specifies the filter type.
Specifies the output gain of the filter.
Turn this ON if you want to prevent
excessive volume from occurring
when Resonance is raised.
Specifies the cutoff frequency.
Increasing the Cutoff value lowers the
cutoff frequency, deepening the LPF
effect.
Specifies the amount of resonance.
Specifies the filter type.
Specifies the output gain of the filter.
Turn this ON if you want to prevent
excessive volume from occurring
when Resonance is raised.
