Chapter 3 – Overview of Programs

Chorus/Room 1- The first multieffects program is a layered true stereo chorus and large room reverb. It works great on guitars, synths and electric pianos.

Chorus/Room 2- The other multieffects program adds a delay to the chorus/room sound for a different flavor. It works well for slow, funky guitars or big ballad solos.

Pitch-Based Parameter Adjust

On the chorus and flange programs, the Rate control sets the speed of the chorus or flanging sweep. When the chorus rate is increased, the depth is similarly decreased to maintain a constant pitch shift. On the Rotary program, the [ADJUST] knob controls the speed of the Lezlie motor, either fast or slow. On the Chorus/Room 1 program the [ADJUST] knob edits the reverb decay time, where on the Chorus/Room 2 program [ADJUST] edits the delay time.

Delay (1 Program)

Delay is a discrete echo repeat, unlike the rapid wash of repeats that create reverb effects. It is useful for adding depth to a track or performance if reverb is adding too much coloration to the sound.

Delay- This program provides a delay of up to 1270 ms. The delay time can be adjusted in 10 millisecond increments. This is a useful utility program which can add space to vocals or instruments without "muddying up" a mix.
