Chapter 4 Using the XV-5050 Effects
58: SLICER
By applying successive cuts to the sound, this effect turns a
conventional sound into a sound that appears to be played as a
backing phrase. This is especially effective when applied to sustain-
type sounds.

59: ISOLATOR
This is an equalizer that radically cuts the volume of selected
frequencies, allowing you to create special effects cutting the volume
in various ranges.

Description
For a single measure containing
four quarter notes, this sets the lev-
el of each sixteenth note when the
measure is divided into sixteenth
notes.
Cycle for one measure
Speed at which the volume chang-
es between beats
Selects the source sound that acts
as the trigger resetting the one-
measure pattern.
OFF: The pattern is not reset, even if
the input signal is present.
SOURCE: The pattern is reset by the
sound sent into the multi-effects.
A, B: The pattern is reset by the direct
sound sent to the OUTPUT A or
OUTPUT B jacks.
* When Reset Trigger is selected
as the MFX Control parameter,
you can use an external MIDI
device to reset the pattern.
Volume level at which the reset be-
gins
Determines whether the sound
used as the reset trigger is included
in the effect output (ON) or not
(OFF).
* This parameter is disabled
when Reset Trigger is set to OFF
or SOURCE.
Sets the manner in which the vol-
ume changes as one beat progress-
es to the next.
LEGATO: The change in volume
from one beat's level to the next re-
mains unaltered. If the level of a fol-
lowing beat is the same as the one
preceding it, there is no change in
volume.
SLASH: The level is momentarily set
to 0 before progressing to the level of
the next beat. This change in volume
occurs even if the level of the follow-
ing beat is the same as the preceding
beat.
Timing of volume changes in lev-
els for even-numbered Beats (Beat
1-2/Beat 1-4/Beat 2-2/...).
The higher the value, the later the
beat progresses.

Description
These boost and cut each of the
High, Middle, and Low frequen-
cy ranges.
At -60 dB, the sound becomes inau-
dible. 0 dB is equivalent to the in-
put level of the sound.
Turns the Anti-Phase function on
and off for the Low frequency
ranges.
When turned on, a stereo copy of
the sound is phase-inverted and
added to the signal.
Adjusts the level settings for the
Low frequency ranges.
Adjusting this level for certain fre-
quencies allows you to lend em-
phasis to specific elements within a
sound. (This is effective only for
stereo source.)
Settings of the Anti-Phase func-
tion for the Middle frequency
ranges
The parameters are the same as for
the Low frequency ranges.
Turns Low Booster on/off.
This emphasizes the bottom fre-
quencies to create a heavy bass
sound.
Increasing this value gives you a
heavier low end.
* Depending on the Isolator
and filter settings, this effect
may be hard to hear.
