Applying an effect

Changing the effect type

Each effect provides several variations, which allow it to be controlled by the step sequencer or by external synchronization. These are called effect types. You can select the effect type that is most suitable for your performance situation.

Smoothing: When using the step sequencer to control the effect (p. 45), this creates smooth changes between each step.

Synchronization: The rate of the filter, phaser, or slicer will be synchronized to the standard tempo. Use the C1 knob to choose the note value for synchronization (16th note, 8th note, quarter note, half note, whole note, whole note x2, whole note x4).

If you want only Pan to change for S-5, S-6, or S-7, turn the C1 knob all the way to the left. If you want only resonance to change for F-6, F-7, or F-8, turn the C1 knob all the way to the left.
