Ring Modulation
An effect that modulates the amplitude of the signal, giving it a metallic sound. Higher
values result in greater modulation depth.
Pedal-Controlled Ring Modulation
Ring modulation with its depth controlled by the expression pedal.
Cry
Creates an effect similar to that of a voice box, adding a human-like crying effect to
the sound. Higher values result in greater intensity.
Pedal-Controlled Cry
A cry effect with its filter frequency controlled by the expression pedal.
Random Sample and Hold Step Filter
For this effect, the filter cutoff frequency changes abruptly to a new psuedo-random
value at a fixed time interval, producing an arpeggiator-like sound.
Pedal-Controlled Step Filter
A step filter with its depth controlled by the expression pedal.
Slow Attack
Reduces the attack rate of the signal, slowing the rate at which the volume of the
sound rises when you attack a string. Higher values result in higher sensitivity.
Auto Pan
Pans the signal back and forth from left to right at a constant rate determined by the
PARAM setting. Higher values result in increased pan depth.
Flanger
Shifts the pitch of the signal up and down, creating a swirling effect. Higher values
result in longer delay.
Pedal-Controlled Flanger
A flanger with its delay controlled by the expression pedal.
Rotary Speaker
Emulates the sound of the classic rotary, creating a Doppler effect similar to that
achieved by an organ's rotating speaker. Higher values result in greater intensity and
pan depth.
Pedal-Controlled Rotary Speaker
A rotary speaker effect with its intensity and pan depth controlled by the expression
pedal.
Chorus
Adds fullness to your sound by emulating a chorus of multiple instruments. Higher
values indicate greater modulation depth.
Pedal-Controlled Chorus
A Chorus effect with its modulation depth controlled by the expression pedal.
