43: FORMANT FLTR (Formant Filter)
Adds a vowel character to the sound, making it similar to a human
voice.

44: RING MOD (Ring Modulator)
This is an effect that applies amplitude modulation (AM) to the input
signal, producing bell-like sounds. You can also change the
modulation frequency in response to changes in the volume of the
sound sent into the effect.

Description
Turns Drive on/off.
Degree of distortion
Also changes the volume.
Selects the vowel.
Frequency at which the two
vowels switch
Effect depth
Adjusts the point at which the
two vowels switch.
When set to 50, Vowels 1 and 2
switch in the same amount of
time. Setting this lower than 50
increases the time for Vowel 1;
setting this higher than 50 de-
creases the time for Vowel 1.
Determines whether the LFO
for switching the vowels is re-
set by the input signal (ON) or
not (OFF).

Description
Adjusts the frequency at which modula-
tion is applied.
Selects the source sound for the envelope
controlling the modulation.
SOURCE: The frequency is modulated ac-
cording to the envelope of the sound sent into
the multi-effects
A, B: The frequency is modulated according
to the envelope of the direct sound sent to the
OUTPUT A or OUTPUT B jacks
Determines whether the input signal used
as the modulator is included in the effect
output (ON) or not (OFF).
* This parameter is disabled when Mod-
ulator is set to OFF or SOURCE.
Adjusts the amount of frequency modula-
tion applied.
Determines whether the frequency modu-
lation moves towards higher frequencies
(UP) or lower frequencies (DOWN).

45: MLT TAP DLY (Multi Tap Delay)
This effect provides four delays. Each of the Delay Time parameters
can be set to a note length based on the selected tempo. You can also
set the panning and level of each delay sound.

Value Description
0-1800 ms, Adjusts the time until Delays 1-4 are
note *2 heard.
-98-+98 % Adjusts the amount of the delay
sound that's fed back into the effect.
Negative (-) settings invert the
phase.
200-8000 Hz, Adjusts the frequency above which
BYPASS sound fed back to the effect is fil-
tered out. If you don't want to filter
out any the high frequencies, set this
parameter to BYPASS.
