Alesis Param Direct-Control Parameter for FX1, FX2 Multi-Effect Module 2, Stereo Effects

PARAM (Direct-Control Parameter for FX1)

This parameter modifies the operation of the effect selected for the FX1 module. Changing between effect types with dissimilar value ranges will scale this value accordingly. For example, if you set Phaser to PARAM=63 and then switch to the Auto Wah effect, its PARAM value will be 12. Changing back to Phaser will result in a PARAM value of 63.

Indicates the value of FX1’s direct-control parameter, according to the following:

For Auto Wah, Phaser, Tremolo, Step Filter, Auto Pan, Flanger and Chorus, indicates the rate of the effect.

For Ring Mod, indicates the rate of the modulation.

For Slow Attack, indicates the rate of the attack.

For Rotary Speaker, indicates the rate of the speaker rotation.

For Pedal Pitch Transpose Up and Down, indicates the amount of pitch change in 1/4 semitones (from 1/4 semitone to more than 2 octaves). Wet/dry mix is fixed at 100% wet.

For Cry, indicates the sensitivity of the filter modulation.

For Pitch Transpose with a fixed interval, denotes the wet/dry mix from 0 (100% dry) to 10 (50% wet, 50% dry) to 20 (100% wet).

Indicates that the expression pedal controls the parameter.

Indicates that the effect assigned to the FX1 module does not have a direct-control parameter (like Pedal Wah) or that FX1 is off.

FX2 (Multi-Effect Module 2, Stereo Effects)

This module gives you a choice of stereo effects. These effects include all those found in FX1 except for Flanger, Rotary Speaker, Chorus and Pitch Transpose. FX2 also gives you the following additional effect.

Auto Phaser

A phaser for which the delay is controlled by playing intensity.

PARAM (Direct-Control Parameter for FX2)

These parameters work exactly the same way as the direct-control parameter for FX1, with the following addition.

For Auto Phaser, indicates the rate of the effect.
