preset sound character and mixing balance.
• b1: Bass synthesizer with fat low end and multiple harmonics (only
b 1 effect sound is output)
• b2: Bass synthesizer with resonant filter (only effect sound is output)
• b3: Bass synthesizer with soft sound and few harmonics (only effect
b 9
sound is output)
• b4: b1 effect sound with a slight amount of original sound mixed in
• b5: b2 effect sound with a slight amount of original sound mixed in
• b6: b3 effect sound with a slight amount of original sound mixed in
• b7: b1 effect sound and original sound in 1:1 ratio

b P Using the expression pedal (FP01/FP02) connected to the
CONTROL IN jack, the mixing ratio of b2 effect sound and original sound
can be adjusted.
OCTAVE (Octaver)
o 1
This effect downshifts the sound by one octave and mixes it to the original
o 6 sound. Higher right-digit setting values result in a higher effect sound ratio.
OCTAVE > CHORUS (Octaver > Chorus)
o 7
This effect type is a serial connection of octaver and chorus. Higher right-
digit setting values result in stronger octaver sound. (Chorus intensity is
o 9
fixed.)
PEDAL OCTAVE (Pedal Octaver)
Using the expression pedal (FP01/FP02) connected to the
o P
CONTROL IN jack, the mixing ratio of octaver effect sound and original

PITCH SHIFT (Pitch Shift)
This effect varies the pitch of the original sound. You can select one out of
nine preset pitch shift patterns (P1 - P9).
• P1/P2: A component shifted by 1 octave down is mixed to the original
sound. The mixing ratio differs for P1 and P2.
• P3/P4: A component shifted by a perfect fifth down is mixed to the
original sound. The mixing ratio differs for P3 and P4.
• P5/P6: A component shifted by a perfect fourth up is mixed to the
original sound. The mixing ratio differs for P5 and P6.
• P7/P8: A component shifted by 1 octave up is mixed to the original
sound. The mixing ratio differs for P7 and P8.
• P9: A slightly pitch-shifted component is mixed to the original
sound, resulting in a chorus with slight modulation.
