Using the Effects

MODULATION

These effects broaden, modulate, and/or pitch shift the sound.

TYPE knob

Use this to choose the type of modulation.

MOD Pedal

This switches the effect on and off.

1:CHORUS This effect adds subtle wavering to transform the tone into one that is broader, thicker, and more beautiful.

2:PHASER This effect creates a sweeping, phase-shifted sound.

3:FLANGER This creates a modulation effect like the rising and falling sound of a jet engine.

4:ROTARY This effect produces the sound of rotating speakers.

5: UNI-V

This models the Uni-Vibe, an effect that's part of the rock sound of the 1960s.

 

 

6:TREMOLO This produces a retro effect through cyclical changes in the volume level.

7:VIBRATO This produces an intense vibrato effect unobtainable with normal guitar playing.

8:HARMONIST This creates harmonies reminiscent of twin guitars.

Play only single notes when using the harmonist effect.

9:OCTAVE This imparts thickness by adding sound an octave lower.

Play only single notes when using the octave effect.

10:DELAY This delays the sound to produce an echo-like effect. At delay times of 100 to 990 ms (milliseconds), you can use it as a secondary delay.
