Chapter 4 Introduction to Effects and Parameters

FL (Flanger)

The flanging effect gives a twisting, jet-airplane-like
character to the sound.
Parameter/
Explanation
Range
Rate
0–100,
This sets the rate of the flanging effect.
BPM –BPM
* When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according to
the value of the Master BPM (p. 51) specified for each patch. This makes
it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the
song (synchronizing the cycle to one-half or one-fourth of the BPM
when the set cycle rate is increased).
When setting to BPM, press PARAMETER [
display the Master BPM settings screen.
Depth
0–100 Determines the depth of the flanging effect.
Manual
Adjusts the center frequency at which to ap-
0 –100
ply the effect.
Resonance
Determines the amount of resonance (feed-
0–100
back).
Increasing the value will emphasize the effect, creating a more un-
usual sound.
Separation
Adjusts the diffusion. The diffusion increas-
0–100
es as the value increases.
Low Cut (Low Cut Filter)
This sets the frequency at which the low cut
Flat, 55 Hz–800 Hz
filter begins to take effect.
This lets you cut the low-end component below the set frequency to
create a clear, distinct low end, thereby bringing out the high end of
the effect. When "Flat" is selected, the low cut filter will have no ef-
fect.
Effect Level
0–100 Adjusts the volume of the flanger.
Direct Level
0–100 Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.

PAN

With the volume level of the left and right sides alternately
changing, when playing sound in stereo, you can get an
effect that makes the guitar sound appear to fly back and
forth between the speakers.

the value of the Master BPM (p. 51) specified for each patch. This makes
it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the
song (synchronizing the cycle to one-half or one-fourth of the BPM
when the set cycle rate is increased).
When setting to BPM, press PARAMETER [

VB (Vibrato)

This effect creates vibrato by slightly modulating the pitch.

Explanation
Adjusts the rate of the vibrato.
–BPM
Adjusts the depth of the vibrato.
