Multi-effect

Multi-effect

The DP-01FX contains an input effector, which contains different types of effects, grouped by the type of input (electric guitar, acoustic guitar, vocals, etc.) that they are suitable for.

DP-01FX Appendix

Figure 3.1: Effect controls

Assigning the effect

Although there are two inputs, the multi-effect can only be applied to one of them at a time.

The multifect produces a stereo output, so you can use it on stereo pairs, and you can then assign the output to two tracks (see “Assigning inputs” on page 23).

Press and hold the SHIFT key and press the MULTI key so that either the A or B indicator lights, showing the input to which you want to apply the multi-effect.

There is a third setting in which neither indicator is lit, showing that the multi-effect is not in use on either input.

Selecting the effect type

Press the MULTI key alone to bring up the multi-effect selection and editing screen:

Press and hold the SHIFT key and turn the TYPE control to scroll through the different effect types available:

EGTR

Electric guitar

 

 

AGTR

Acoustic guitar

 

 

BASS

Bass guitar

 

 

VOCAL

Vocals

 

 

DRUM

Drums and percussion

 

 

The effect (third line of the display) also changes as you change the type, and so does the parameter value (on the fourth line).

Selecting the effect

Turn the TYPE control to scroll through all available effects (including those in other effect types). Effects available are listed in “Available multi-effect settings” on page 65.

Setting the parameter

Each multi-effect has one parameter (shown as PAR).

Use the PARAMETER control to set the value of the parameter (the parameter is different for different types of effects).
