Mod Level	0–127	Volume of the chorus or flanger
		sound.
Trem/Pan	OFF, ON	Turns the tremolo/auto pan effect
Sw		on/off.
Trem Mode	TREMOLO,	Selects whether to use tremolo or auto
	AUTO PAN	pan.
Trem	TRI,	Selects the type of modulation.
Waveform	SAWUP,	TRI: Triangle wave
	SAWDN,	SAWUP/SAWDN: Sawtooth Wave
	SQR, SIN	SQR: Square wave
		SIN: Sine wave

37: Keyboard Multi

A ring modulator, 3-band equalizer, pitch shifter, phaser, and delay are connected in series.

Ring Modulator is an effect which applies ring modulation using an internal oscillator to the input signal, producing bell- like sounds.

Parameter	Value	Description
Ring Freq	0–127	Frequency at which modulation
		will be applied
Ring Balance	DRY100:0WET–	Volume balance between the di-
	DRY0:100WET	rect sound (DRY) and the ring
		modulated sound (WET)
EQ Low Freq	50–4000 Hz	Frequency of the low range
EQ Low Gain	-15– +15 dB	Gain of the low range
EQ Mid Freq	50–20000 Hz	Frequency of the middle range
EQ Mid Q	0.5, 0.7, 1.0, 2.0,	Gain of the middle range
	4.0, 8.0	Set a higher value for Q to nar-
		row the range to be affected.
EQ Mid Gain	-15– +15 dB	Gain of the middle range
EQ Hi Freq	2000–20000 Hz	Frequency of the high range
EQ Hi Gain	-15– +15 dB	Gain of the high range
PS Grade	1–5	Sets the grade of the effect sound.
		The higher the value is set, the
		more natural-sounding can be
		obtained; however, this increases
		the delay from the source sound
		as well.
PS Coarse	-12– +12	Specifies the pitch shift amount
	semitone	in semitone steps.
PS Fine	-100– +100 cent	Adjusts the pitch shift amount in
		2-cent steps (1 cent = 1/100 of a
		semitone).
PS Balance	DRY100:0WET–	Volume balance between the di-
	DRY0:100WET	rect sound (DRY) and the effect
		sound (WET)
Phaser Man-	0–127	Specifies the center frequency at
ual		which the sound is modulated.

Parameter	Value	Description
Phaser Rate	0.05–10.0 Hz,	Specifies the frequency of modu-
	note	lation.
Phaser Depth	0–127	Specifies the depth of modula-
		tion.
Phaser Reso-	0–127	Specifies the amount of feedback
nance		for the phaser.
		Higher settings will give the
		sound a stronger character.
Phaser Mix	0–127	Specifies the volume of the
Level		phase-shifted sound, relative to
		the direct sound.
Delay Time	0–650 ms, note	Adjusts the delay time from the
		direct sound until the delay
		sound is heard.
Delay Feed-	-98– +98 %	Adjusts the proportion of the de-
back		lay sound that is fed back into the
		effect. Negative (-) settings will
		invert the phase.
Low Damp	50–4000 Hz	Adjusts the frequency below
Freq		which sound fed back to the ef-
		fect will be cut.
		The Low Damp function damps
		the low frequency band of the
		delay sound quicker than other
		bands, which makes for a clearer
		delay effect.
Low Damp	-36–0 dB	Degree of Low Damp
Gain
Hi Damp	2000–20000 Hz	Adjusts the frequency above
Freq		which sound fed back to the ef-
		fect will be cut.
		High Damp, by attenuating the
		higher frequencies first, makes
		the delay sound more natural.
Hi Damp	-36–0 dB	Degree of High Damp
Gain
Delay Level	0–127	Volume of the delay sound.

38: Phonograph

This effect reproduces the sound of an analog record played on a record player. This includes the various noises with the characteristic of records and the uneven rotation of older turntables.

Parameter	Value	Description
Input Mode	MONO, STE-	Use this setting to select either a
	REO	stereo or monaural record player
		for the effect.
Signal Dist	0–127	Degree of distortion
Frequency	0–127	Sets the frequency response of the
Range		record player.
		Lowering the value degrades the
		frequency characteristics, making
		the sound resemble that from an
		older system.
Disk Type	LP, EP, SP	Sets the turntable rotation speed.
		LP: 33 1/3 r.p.m.
		EP: 45 r.p.m.
		SP: 78 r.p.m.
