The display will show the effect type that is specified for the currently

selected effect pattern.

*Changes you make are temporary. If you want to keep the new settings, you must save them (p. 48).

Creating consecutive changes in an effect (Effect Control)

You can use the step sequencer in conjunction with each effect to create consecutive changes in the effect settings. This is called effect control.

One measure is divided into 16 (or 12) steps, and you can input a value for each step to specify how the effect will change.

For example, you can use effect control to vary the cutoff frequency of the filter so that the filter will open and close in stepwise fashion.

Since the effect control speed will follow the standard tempo, you can use it in conjunction with a variety of performances.

* If you are using loop control to play back a loop, it is not possible to use effect control.

For the effect parameters that will be controlled by this feature, refer to the “Parameters that can be controlled” column of the effect type table (p. 44).

What you need to do to use Effect Control

(1)	Select an effect type	(p. 44)
(2)	Make effect control settings	(p. 46)
(3)	Specify the speed of change	(p. 57)
