MASTER

"Master" is located on the last of all each algorithm, allowing
you to set the patch's output level, and foot volume level.
LINK
This parameter is for "MIC SIMULATOR."
This is a link switch for channels L and R.
If this is turned off, the channels will function independently
as two monaural channels. If this is turned on, both channels
will be controlled simultaneously by the settings of channel
L.
* If "LINK=ON" has been selected, the parameter you have set on
the R channel will have no effect, turning it to exactly the same
setting as the L channel.
LEVEL (master level)
This adjusts the output volume of the VF-1.
When making Master settings, the level meter (p.18, 31) will
show the initial input of the patch (the signal before it passes
through any effect) and the final output (the signal after it
has passed through all effects of the algorithm).
BPM (master BPM)
By specifying a BPM to match the tempo of your song, you
can create an effect that changes the sound in
synchronization with the tempo. For example if you use BPM
for a flanger, the sound will modulate in synchronization
with the tempo.
Here you can make the BPM setting for each effect.
* If there is no parameter that can set the BPM in the effects of the
Algorithm, "BPM" will not be shown in the display.
BPM (Beats Per Minute) indicates the number of quarter
notes per minute.
The notes for the BPM can be selected from the followings:

The function of each parameter
BPM can be set in one of the following three ways.
* In order to make the effect use the BPM setting, you must set
the appropriate parameter (e.g., Chorus Rate or Dly Time) to
"BPM
."
40–250:
Set the BPM in the range of 40-250.
MIDI:
The Timing Clock messages received at MIDI IN will
determine the BPM value.
GLOBAL:
The value (speed) specified for the GLOBAL SOUND
SETTING parameter "GLOBAL BPM" will control the effect.
* For details on the "GLOBAL" BPM setting, refer to "GLOBAL
SYSYTEM SETTING: GLOBAL BPM (p.45)."
* In the following cases, the BPM setting will have no effect.
• When "BPM
" is selected as the effect parameter,
but that effect is turned off
• When the effect parameter is set to other than "BPM
."
FOOT LEVEL (foot volume level)
This adjusts the volume at the position where "FV (foot
volume)" in the Algorithm is connected.
To control the volume of foot level with the Expression
pedal, set "Control Assign" (p. 103) as follows.
< ASSIGN1: ON >
TARGET:
MASTER:FOOT VOLUME LEVEL
TARGET MIN:
0
TARGET MAX:
100
SOURCE TYPE:
ExpPEDAL
SOURCE MODE:
NORMAL
SOURCE MIN:
0
SOURCE MAX:
127
* The foot volume is placed in the optimal location for each
algorithm. For details refer to "Algorithm list" (p.49–90).
