•
The cut-off frequency of the filter starts at 14 kHz and goes down to approxi-
mately 300 Hz the more you turn the amount knob clockwise.
•
The filter resonance starts at 70% and goes down to 0% the more you turn the
amount knob clockwise. the resonance values are equally distributed over the
amount range.
Hi-Pass
Hi-Pass is a High-Pass filter (= Low-Cut filter), which dampens low frequencies,
i.e. the middle and the high frequencies can pass through the filter.
the parameters for Hi-pass that are set with the amount knob are:
•
the dry/wet ratio is always 100% wet, except at amount = 0.
•
The frequency range that is filtered starts at 35 Hz, ends at about 3 kHz, and is
equally distributed over the amount range.
•
The filter resonance starts at 0,2 and goes up to about 0,5 over the amount
range.
•
The number of stages of the filter inside the Hi-Pass effect varies: Up to the
middle position of the amount knob three stages are used, with an amount
value between 50% and 60% four stages are used, and above 60% five stages.
•
additionally, a spreading parameter that increases all over the amount range,
acts on the cut-off frequency differences between the stages.
Echo
the echo and the Delay effect (see next section) are delay effects where copies
of the original signal are inserted into the output. this results in an echoic im-
pression. the fX amount knob controls the dry/wet ratio and effect dependent
parameters.
let's have a look at the parameters for the echo effect:
•
the dry/wet range for echo is 0% (only dry) to 100% (only wet).
•
the delay time depends on the Bpm of the player and is 1/2 beat in the amount
range from 0–80%. Above 80% the delay time is shortened: first 1/4 beat, then
1/8, 1/16 and finally 1/32 beat when the Amount knob is at its maximum posi-
tion. The delay time is not changed abruptly but slowly in the upper fifth position
of the knob. playing around in this knob range leads to very interesting acceler-
ating delay effects, that sound similar to a tape delay.
•
the feedback starts at about 25% and increases up to 63% all over the amount
range. the feedback parameter controls how much of the effect signal is fed
back into the effect. By feeding the effect signal back into the effect engine, the
intensity of the effect is increased.
