Effect Parameters - Yamaha DTX700 Reference Manual

Internal Design of the DTX700
 Effect Parameters
Each of the above-mentioned effects includes a range of param-
eters allowing you to adjust the way in which it processes the
input signal. Using these parameters, the behavior of each
effect can be optimized in line with, for example, the type of
sound being processed or the type of music being played. While
the function of each of these parameters is described in the fol-
lowing table, it is good practice to also listen to how they actu-
ally change the sound of the respective effect in order to
achieve the best settings.
 Parameters with identical names
NOTE
•
Certain effects contain parameters with identical names
yet performing different functions. In the following table,
the function of each such parameter is described sepa-
rately and the corresponding effects are identified.
Parameter
name
This parameter is used to set the depth of ampli-
AMDepth
tude modulation.
This parameter is used to set the type of amplifier
AmpType
to be simulated.
This parameter is used to set the amount of time
Attack
that elapses before compression is fully applied.
This parameter is used to set the lowest point in
*1
Bottom
the filter's sweep range.
This parameter is used to set the fixed phase mod-
*2
Color
ulation.
This parameter is used to set the amount of time
CommonRel that elapses before the compressor stops process-
ing the input signal (common for all three bands).
This parameter is used to set the input-signal level at
Compres which the compressor starts to process the sound
(i.e., the threshold).
This parameter is used to set the offset value for
Cutoff
the filter's control frequency.
This parameter is used to set the delay time in
Delay
terms of note lengths.
This parameter is used to set the delay time for the
DelayC
center channel.
This parameter is used to set the delay time for the
DelayL
left channel.
This parameter is used to set the time that elapses
DelayL>R between input of sound via the left channel and
output via the right channel.
This parameter is used to set the delay time for the
DelayR
right channel.
This parameter is used to set the time that elapses
DelayR>L between input of sound via the right channel and
output via the left channel.
*1: The Bottom parameter's setting is valid only when less than that
of the Top parameter.
*2: The Color parameter's setting has no effect with certain combi-
nations of Mode and Stage settings.
