The VT-series provides eleven of the most popular effects (including multiple ef-
fects) in addition to reverb. You can set the SPEED parameter of the modulation
effects or the TIME parameter of the delays simply by pressing the [TAP] switch
twice at the desired interval. Use the [EDIT] knob to set the most important param-
eters, and make additional detailed settings by turning the [EDIT] knob while hold-
ing down the [TAP] switch or [BYPASS] switch.

NOTE: In order to edit the effect parameter settings, effect bypass must be
off (the BYPASS LED must be dark). If bypass is on (BYPASS LED lit), hold-
ing down the [TAP] switch and turning the [EDIT] knob will adjust the noise
reduction sensitivity instead of an effect parameter.
HINT: If you don't want to use an effect in a user program, set the effect type
to DELAY or TAPE ECHO. Then turn the [EDIT] knob all the way to the left
to minimize the MIX setting.
This models an analog delay that uses a bucket brigade device (BBD) as its delay
circuit. Although its audio quality is lo-fi, it is favored for its warmth. The param-
eters are the same as TAPE ECHO, below.
This models a popular analog tape echo. Originally, the echo was produced by the
playback head, and the delay time was adjusted by changing the speed of the motor.
