FILTER/PHASE EFFECT:
the original sound to add different tonal definition. When the Filter
Effect is activated the FILTER/PHASE BUTTON (7) will glow yellow,
when the Phase Effect is selected the button will glow red. The
reaction these effects have to the original tonal definition can be
altered by changing the PARAMETER TIME (13) and PARAMETER
RATIO (14).

FLANGER EFFECT:
phasing in and out of each other. The FLANGER Effect has two adjustable parameters, Parameter Time (PT)
and Parameter Ratio (PR). The PT will adjust the Flanger Mode and The PR will adjust the Flanger Frequency
Range (see "Parameters" in the next section).
ECHO EFFECT:
The ECHO effect adds an echo to your output signal. The ECHO Effect has two adjustable
parameters, Parameter Time (PT) and Parameter Ratio (PR). The PR will adjust the length of the echo (drop off
time), and the PT will adjust the echo gap length (see "Parameters" in the next section).
