Effect Parameters - Korg ESX-1 Owner's Manual

Effect parameters

REVERB
This effect simulates the reverberation and spatial character of
a hall.
FX EDIT1: Time ..............................................0...127
Turning the knob toward the right will lengthen the re-
verb time.
FX EDIT2: Level ..............................................0...127
Turning the knob toward the right will increase the re-
verb level.
With long reverb time settings, some input sounds
or level values may cause distortion
BPM SYNC DELAY
This is a cross delay synchronized to the BPM.
FX EDIT1: Time ........................................ 1/64...1/1
Adjusts the delay time synchronized to the BPM, in note
value units.
Turning the knob toward the right lengthens the delay
time.
You can set this in a range from a 64th note to a whole
note.
FX EDIT2: Depth ............................................ 0...127
Adjusts the depth of the delay and the amount of feedback.
Turning the knob toward the right makes the delayed
sound louder and also increases the amount of feedback.
Panning each part further left or right creates a deeper
sense of spaciousness.
The feedback sound may disappear if you turn the
TIME knob or change the BPM while producing
sound.
Depending on the tempo setting, some long delay
times may not be available. In this case, the delay
time will be halved, and may be halved again if
necessary.
Depending on the tempo setting, some short de-
lay times may not be available. In this case, the
delay time will be doubled, and may be doubled
again if necessary.
If you lower the time value too far, the sound may
distort (clip).
SHORT DELAY
This is a cross delay with a short delay time. It is not synchro-
nized with the BPM.
FX EDIT1: Time ..............................................0...127
Sets the delay time.
Turning the knob toward the right lengthens the delay
time. Shortening the delay time can produce a doubling
effect, giving the impression that multiple instruments are
playing together.
(Reverb)
(BPM sync delay)
(Short delay)
FX EDIT2: Depth ............................................ 0...127
Adjusts the depth of the delay and the amount of feed-
back.
Turning the knob toward the right makes the delayed
sound louder and also increases the amount of feedback.
Panning each part further left or right creates a deeper
sense of spaciousness.
If you increase the depth excessively, the sound
may distort for some time settings or input sources.
If you lower the time value too far, the sound may
distort (clip).
MOD DELAY
This is a delay that adds a chorus effect by using the LFO to sweep
the delay time. This is also a tempo delay in which the delay
time automatically synchronizes to the tempo.
FX EDIT1: Time ........................................ 1/64...1/1
Adjusts the delay time synchronized to the tempo, in note
value units.
Turning the knob toward the right lengthens the delay
time.
You can set this in a range from a 64th note to a whole
note.
FX EDIT2: Depth ............................................ 0...127
Adjusts the depth of the delay and the amount of feed-
back.
Turning the knob toward the right makes the delayed
sound louder and also increases the amount of feedback.
The feedback sound may disappear if you turn the
TIME knob or change the BPM while producing
sound.
Depending on the tempo setting, some long delay
times may not be available. In this case, the delay
time will be halved, and may be halved again if
necessary.
Depending on the tempo setting, some short de-
lay times may not be available. In this case, the
delay time will be doubled, and may be doubled
again if necessary.
GRAIN SHIFTER
This effect samples an extremely brief portion of the sound at
a certain interval, and repeatedly plays back this brief sample.
It is effective when applied to a constantly-changing source such
as Audio In.
