Effects List

18: Space Chorus

This effect reproduces the sound of Roland’s SDD-320 spatial expression effects. Greater breadth is added.

Parameter	Value	Description
Mode	1, 2, 3, 4, 1+4,	Selects the way in the chorus will
	2+4, 3+4	change.
		The SDD-320 features four mode
		buttons for changing the effect.
		This setting determines which
		buttons are to be pressed. (“1+4”
		represents the condition when
		Buttons 1 and 4 are pressed simul-
		taneously.)
Chorus Level	0–127	Volume level of the chorus sound
Ps Low Freq	50–4000 Hz	Frequency of the low range
Ps Low Gain	-15– +15 dB	Gain of the low range
Ps Hi Freq	2000–20000 Hz	Frequency of the high range
Ps Hi Gain	-15– +15 dB	Gain of the high range

19: Hexa Chorus

Hexa-chorus is a six-stage chorus which adds depth and spaciousness to the sound. (Six chorus sounds with different delay times are overlaid.) An equalizer is provided before (Pre) and after (Post) the hexa chorus.

Parameter	Value	Description
Pre Dly Time	0–50.0 ms	Adjusts the delay time from the di-
		rect sound until the chorus sound
		is heard.
Pre Dly Dev	0–50.0 ms	Specifies the differences in Pre De-
		lay time for each of the chorus
		sounds
Rate	0.05–10.0 Hz,	Specifies the modulation frequen-
	note	cy of the chorus sound.
Depth	0–127	Specifies the modulation depth of
		the chorus sound.
Depth Devia-	0–127	Specifies the difference in modula-
tion		tion depth between each of the
		chorus sounds.
Pan Devia-	L63–63R	Specifies the difference in stereo
tion		position between each of the cho-
		rus sounds.
		0: All of the chorus sounds will be
		panned to the center.
		L20/R20: each chorus sound will
		be placed in 30 degree intervals
		relative to the center position.
Chorus Level	0–127	Volume level of the chorus sound
Pre Low Freq	50–4000 Hz	Frequency of the low range (Pre)
Pre Low Gain	-15– +15 dB	Gain of the low range (Pre)
Pre Hi Freq	2000–20000 Hz	Frequency of the high range (Pre)
Pre Hi Gain	-15– +15 dB	Gain of the high range (Pre)
Ps Low Freq	50–4000 Hz	Frequency of the low range
Ps Low Gain	-15– +15 dB	Gain of the low range
Ps Hi Freq	2000–20000 Hz	Frequency of the high range
Ps Hi Gain	-15– +15 dB	Gain of the high range

20: Analog Flanger

This effect reproduces the sound of Roland’s SBF-325 analog flanger. You can get three different types of flanger sounds (adding a metallic swelling sound to the source sound) and chorus like effect.

Parameter	Value	Description
Mode	FL1, FL2,	Sets the effect type.
	FL3, CHO	FL1: A general monaural flanger
		FL2: A stereo flanger that utilizes the
		stereo placement of the source sound
		FL3: A cross mix flanger that provid-
		ing a more intense effect
		CHO: Chorus effect
Rate	0.02–5.00 Hz,	Sets the rate of the swelling of the
	note	flanger sound.
Depth	0–127	Specifies the modulation depth of the
		flanger sound.
Manual	0–127	Adjusts the center frequency to which
		the flanger effect is applied.
Feedback	0–127	Sets the intensity of the flanger’s ef-
		fect.
		When the mode is set to CHO, this
		setting will be ignored.
CH-R Mod	NORM, INV	Sets the phase of the right channel.
Phase		This is usually set to Normal
		(NORM). Setting this to Invert (INV)
		inverts the phase of the modulation
		(rise and fall) in the right channel.
CH-L Phase	NORM, INV	Sets the phase of the left and right
CH-R Phase		channels when the source sound is
		mixed with the flanging sound.
		NORM: Positive phase (+)
		INV: negative phase (-)

21: BOSS Flanger

This effect features a pair of the same flanger circuits used in the BOSS compact flangers, connected in parallel for stereo input. This adds a particular metallic-sounding modulation to the source sound.

Parameter	Value	Description
Type	NORMAL,	Selects the model of flanger simu-
	HI-BAND	lated.
		NORMAL: Normal type (BOSS BF-
		2)
		HI-BAND: High-Band type (BOSS
		HF-2). Setting HI-B raise the flang-
		ing sound one octave above that at
		the NORM.
Manual	0–127	Sets the center frequency for the ef-
		fect.
Depth	0–127	Sets the depth of the swelling of the
		flanger sound.
Rate	0.05–10.0 Hz,	Adjusts the modulation speed of
	note	the flanger effect.
Resonance	0–127	Sets the intensity of the flanger’s ef-
		fect.
		* If the Feedback Mode is CROSS,
		this setting is ignored.
