FX1 (Multi-Effect Module 1, Mono to Stereo Effects)

This module gives you a choice of mono effects. You may assign one effect at a time to this module.

Auto Wah

A wah sound controlled by playing intensity. Attack the strings aggressively for more effect. Higher values indicate higher input sensitivity.

Pedal-Controlled Wah

A wah sound controlled by moving the optional expression pedal up and down as you play.

Phaser

An effect that shifts the phase of the signal and adds it to the original sound (in simpler terms, it adds a duplicate signal that is delayed a bit). The phaser gives your guitar a full, pulsating sound. Higher values result in more feedback, producing a more intense effect.

Pedal-Controlled Phaser

A phaser effect with its feedback controlled by the expression pedal.

Tremolo

Varies the volume of the signal, creating a rising and falling effect. Higher values result in greater depth of variation.

Pedal-Controlled Tremolo

A tremolo effect with its depth controlled by the expression pedal.

Ring Modulation

An effect that modulates the amplitude of the signal, giving it a metallic sound. Higher values result in greater modulation depth.

Pedal-Controlled Ring Modulation

Ring modulation with its depth controlled by the expression pedal.

Cry

Creates an effect similar to that of a voice box, adding a human-like crying effect to the sound. Higher values result in greater intensity.

Pedal-Controlled Cry

A cry effect with its filter frequency controlled by the expression pedal.

Random Sample and Hold Step Filter

For this effect, the filter cutoff frequency changes abruptly to a new psuedo-random value at a fixed time interval, producing an arpeggiator-like sound.

Pedal-Controlled Step Filter

A step filter with its depth controlled by the expression pedal.

Slow Attack

Reduces the attack rate of the signal, slowing the rate at which the volume of the sound rises when you attack a string. Higher values result in higher sensitivity.

Auto Pan

Pans the signal back and forth from left to right at a constant rate determined by the

PARAM setting. Higher values result in increased pan depth.

Flanger

Shifts the pitch of the signal up and down, creating a swirling effect. Higher values result in longer delay.

Pedal-Controlled Flanger

A flanger with its delay controlled by the expression pedal.
