Page 1 Parameters
Amount (01-08) Chooses the distortion intensity; higher values create more distortion.
Mix Controls the mix of dry and processed (wet) signals. The variable mix parameter
shows the ratio between dry and wet signals, as well as DRY for all-dry and WET for
all-wet signals. The mix value affects only the wet/dry balance within the effect; it is in-
dependent of the mix levels for Effect 1 and Effect 2 (the L parameter described in
section 4.2).
4.3g Exciter Parameters
The exciter effect is a mild form of distortion that gives a sound more impact. General-
ly, this effect is best when used subtly; try setting the Mix option for just a small
amount of wet signal when you first experiment with this effect.

Freq (1.9, 2.1, 2.4, 2.8, 3.2, 3.8, 4.8, 6.4, 9.6, 19.2) (00-09) Higher values increase
the brightness and complexity of the excited sound.
Contour (00-99) Higher values increase the depth of the Exciter
Mix Controls the mix of dry and processed (wet) signals. The variable mix parameter
shows the ratio between dry and wet signals, as well as DRY for all-dry and WET for
all-wet signals. The mix value affects only the wet/dry balance within the effect; it is in-
dependent of the mix levels for Effect 1 and Effect 2 (the L parameter described in
section 4.2).
EQ The DPM V3 Exciter also contains a fully programmable 2 band equalizer, see EQ
Parameters (4.3d) for details.
4.4 COMBINATION EFFECTS PARAMETERS
The combination effects use the same parameters as described above. Exam-
ple: Reverb/Chorus presents the same parameters as the individual Reverb and
Chorus effects.
The order of effects can make a big difference in the overall sound. As always, ex-
perimentation is the key to learning these differences, but following are some specific
examples to get you started.
Distortion/Reverb and Reverb/Distortion Placing distortion before reverb gives a
clean reverb effect superimposed on a distorted sound. Placing distortion after reverb
distorts the reverb signal, giving a "dirty" reverb effect.
