DOD Bass30 manual

Pitch - When Pitch/Bend is selected, the display will show one of three different types of Pitch Shifting which are selectable by rotating the Data Wheel. The types include: Pt (Pitch Shift), bn (Pitch Bend), and bE (Bass Enhancer). Pitch shifting makes a copy of your signal, then shifts it to a different pitch. This results in two different notes playing together. The Amount Parameter determines the interval of the shifted note. The interval choices include: 1d (one octave down), -5(a fifth below), -3(a third below), b3 (a flatted third above), 3 (a third above), 4 (a fourth above), 5 (a fifth above), and1u (one octave up). Pitch Bend is an effect that will require the expression pedal. When the expression pedal is assigned to this effect, you can bend the pitch of your note by rocking the expression pedal up and down. As you rock the pedal forward, the note will bend either up or down depending on the pitch interval you have selected with the Amount Parameter. The Amount Parameter determines the possible bend ranges and choices include:1d (1 octave down with no dry signal), -4(a fourth below with no dry signal), -2(a second below with no dry signal), 4 (a fourth above with no dry signal), 5 (a fifth above with no dry signal), 1u (one octave up with no dry signal), 24 (a second above to a fourth above with dry signal), and 34 (a third above to a fourth above with dry signal). Bass Enhancer mixes a sub harmonic with your original signal. The Amount Parameter selects the frequency of the low pass filter in the effect.

Detune - Detuning is an effect that uses pitch shifting technology, but does not shift the pitch a full note. It shifts the pitch slightly out of tune with your note, and mixes it back with the original. The Amount Parameter is available with this effect and determines the detuning applied which is measured in cents (100 cents = 1 semitone). The Amount is variable from -18(18 cents below) to 18 (18 cents above).

Delay - A Delay records a short passage, and then repeats it a moment later. You can repeat the passage once, or several times. The Bass30 offers four types of delay: ta (tape delay), dL (delay), PP (ping pong delay), and Ph (phrase sampling). Tape Delay emulates delays using a tape to record, causing each repeat to deteriorate from the original sound. The Delay setting provides clear, concise repeats. The Ping Pong setting will “bounce” repeats from left to right in stereo. See the next section for a description of the Phrase Sampler.
