FLANGER/ECHO/ROBOT EFFECT: The Flanger effect distorts the output
signal and creates an effect similar to the frequency phasing in and out of
each other. The Echo effect adds an echo to your output signal. The Robot
effect distorts the output to simulate a sci-fi robot voice. When the Flanger
effect is selected the FLANGER LED will flash blue, when the Echo or Robot
effect is selected the ECHO LED (19) will flash green.
ROBOT EFFECT: The Robot effect distorts the output to simulate a sci-
fi robot voice. The Robot effect is activated in the echo parameters (see
"Parameters" in the next section). To activate the Robot effect select the
echo effect. After the Echo effect is activated turn the HOLD (19) function
on. Use the PARAMETER TIME KNOB (29) and set the (PT) value to 0010.
After "PT" value has been set, use the PARAMETER RATIO KNOB (25) to
create the effect by turning it back and forth.
FLANGER EFFECT: The Flanger effect distorts the output signal and cre-
ates an effect similar to frequencies phasing in and out of each other. The
FLANGER Effect has two adjustable parameters, Parameter Time (PT) and
Parameter Ratio (PR). The PT will adjust the Flanger Mode and The PR
will adjust the Flanger Frequency Range (see "Parameters" in the next sec-
tion).
ECHO EFFECT: The Echo effect adds an echo to your output signal. The
Echo effect has two adjustable parameters, Parameter Time (PT) and
Parameter Ratio (PR). The PR will adjust the length of the Echo (drop off
time), and the PT will adjust the echo gap length (see "Parameters" in the
next section). off time), and the PT will adjust the Echo gap length.
BUILT-IN EFFECTS
FILTER/PHASE EFFECT: The Filter and Phase effects tweak the original
sound to add different tonal definition. When the Filter Effect is activated
the FILTER LED will flash green, when the Phase Effect is selected the
PHASE LED will flash blue.
