DEFRETTER

This simulates a fretless bass. The defretter can be selected in
the "BASS MULTI" algorithm as an alternate for the
compressor.
SENS (sensitivity)
This controls the input sensitivity of the Defretter. It should
be adjusted for the bass guitar you have until you get the
harmonic changes to sound natural.
ATTACK
This controls the attack of the Defretter. Increasing the value
will cause the harmonics to change more slowly, thus
producing a relatively attack-less sound, similar to a fretless
bass.
DEPTH
This controls the rate of the harmonics. Increasing the value
will increase the harmonic content and therefore will create a
more unusual sound.
LEVEL
Adjusts the volume of the defretter sound.

DELAY

This parameter creates a distinctive effect (such as a thicker
sound) by applying a delayed sound to the direct sound.
EFFECT
This parameter turns the delay effect on/off.
TYPE
This Parameter selects the type of delay.
SINGLE:
This is a simple delay.
TAP:
This allows you to obtain the tap delay effect that divides the
delay time, then deliver them to left and right channel.
3TAP:
Tap Delay that allows you to adjust the delay time for each
channel (L and R channel) by setting the Tap time L and the
Tap time R.
DELAY TIME
This parameter adjusts the delay time (i.e., the interval for
which sound is delayed).
The function of each parameter
* If "3TAP" is selected as the Type, this parameter will be
displayed as "DELAY TIME [C]."
* If this is set to BPM, the MASTER BPM (p.105) value that is
set for each patch will determine the delay time, so that the effect
will match the tempo of the song. However if the BPM value is
low, the effect will synchronize to twice or four times the BPM.
DELAY TIME [L]
DELAY TIME [R]
These are the stereo input delay parameters, allowing you to
adjust the delay time independently for left and right
channels.
* If this is set to BPM, the MASTER BPM (p.105) value that is
set for each patch will determine the delay time, so that the effect
will match the tempo of the song. However if the BPM value is
low, the effect will synchronize to twice or four times the BPM.
FINE TIME (delay time fine)
Make fine adjustments to the delay time.
* If "3TAP" is selected as the Type, this parameter will be
displayed as "FINE TIME [C]."
FINE TIME [L] (delay time fine L)
FINE TIME [R] (delay time fine R)
These are the stereo input delay parameters, allowing you to
fine adjust the delay time independently for left and right
channels.
TAP TIME
Adjust the delay time of the right channel. The delay time of
the left channel is considered at 100%, and the delay time of
the right channel is adjusted relative to this.
TIME [L] (tap time L)
TIME [R] (tap time R)
These parameters are for "3TAP." They adjust the TAP TIME
L and TAP TIME R relative to "DELAY TIME C" as 100%.
FEEDBACK
This parameter is for a monaural-input delay, and adjusts the
amount of feedback.
Changing the amount of feedback causes the number of time
the delayed sound is repeated to change as well.
