Defretter; Defretter Bass; Feedbacker; Flanger/Flanger Bass - Boss GT-1000 Parameter Manual

DEFRETTER

This simulates a fretless guitar.
Parameter Value Explanation
This controls the input sensitivity of the
SENS 0–100
defretter.
DEPTH 0–100 This controls the rate of the harmonics.
Adjusts the amount of blurring between the
TONE -50–+50
notes.
EFFECT LEVEL 0–100 Adjusts the volume of the effect sound.
ATTACK 0–100 Adjusts the attack of the picking sound.
Adds a characteristically resonant quality to the
RESONANCE 0–100
sound.
DIRECT MIX 0–100 Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.

DEFRETTER BASS

This simulates a fretless bass.
Parameter Value Explanation
This controls the input sensitivity of the
SENS 0–100
defretter.
ATTACK 0–100 Adjusts the attack of the picking sound.
Adjusts the amount of blurring between the
TONE -50–+50
notes.
EFFECT LEVEL 0–100 Adjusts the volume of the effect sound.
DIRECT MIX 0–100 Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.

FEEDBACKER

Generates feedback performance.
* Note that the notes you want to apply feedback to must be played
singly and cleanly.
Parameter Value Explanation
Analyzes the pitch of the guitar sound being
NORMAL
input, and then creates a feedback sound.
An artificial feedback sound will be created
internally. When OSC is selected, the effect is
MODE
activated after a single note is played and the
OSC
note stabilizes. A feedback effect is created when
the effect switches on; the feedback disappears
when the OSC effect switches off.
TRIGGER
OFF, ON Feedback is applied if this is turned ON.
Adjusts the ease with which feedback will occur

from the moment the effect is turned on.
This determines the time needed for the volume

is turned on.
FEEDBACK *2 0–100 Adjusts the volume of the feedback sound.

FLANGER/FLANGER BASS

The flanging effect gives a twisting, jet-airplane-like character to the
sound.

Effect
Explanation
This sets the rate of the flanging effect.
* When set to BPM, the value of each
parameter will be set according to the
value of the "MASTER BPM" specified
for each patch. This makes it easier
to achieve effect sound settings that
match the tempo of the song.
* If, due to the tempo, the time is longer
than the range of allowable settings, it
is then synchronized to a period either
1/2 or 1/4 of that time.
Determines the depth of the flanging
effect.
Determines the amount of resonance
(feedback). Increasing the value will
emphasize the effect, creating a more
unusual sound.
Adjusts the center frequency at which to
apply the effect.
If this is "ON, " a more intense effect is
produced.
Selects the type of wave.
Adjusts the rate of the step function which
varies the rotation in a step-wise manner.
Higher settings make the change occur in
smaller steps. Turn this "OFF" if you don't
want to use the step function.
Adjusts the diffusion. The diffusion
increases as the value increases.
Adjusts the volume of the flanger.
Adjusts the amount of feedback for the
low-frequency region.
Adjusts the amount of feedback for the
high-frequency region.
This sets the frequency at which the low
cut filter begins to take effect. When FLAT
is selected, the low cut filter will have no
effect.
This sets the frequency at which the high
cut filter begins to take effect. When FLAT
is selected, the high cut filter will have no
effect.
Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.
Adjusts the BPM value for each patch.
* BPM (beats per minute) indicates the
number of quarter note beats that
occur each minute
* When you have an external MIDI
device connected, the MASTER BPM
synchronizes to the external MIDI
devices tempo, making it impossible to
set the MASTER BPM. To enable setting
of the MASTER BPM, set "SYNC CLOCK"
(p. 41) to "INTERNAL. "
