EFFECT
13

SITAR SIM.

This simulates the sound of the sitar.

Parameter Value Explanation
SENS 0–100
Adjusts the sensitivity of the sitar. When it is
set to a lower value, no eect of the sitar is
obtained with weaker picking, while stronger
picking produces the eect. When it is set
to a higher value, the eect of the sitar can
be obtained whether the picking is weak or
strong.
DEPTH 0–100 This adjusts the amount of eect applied.
TONE -50–+50 This adjusts the tone. The high end is boosted
as the value increases.
EFFECT LEVEL 0–100 Adjust the volume of the sitar sound.
RESO 0–100 This adjusts the undulation of the resonance.
BUZZ 0–100
Adjusts the amount of characteristic buzz
produced by the “buzz bridge” when the
strings make contact with it.
DIRECT MIX 0–100 Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.

OCTAVE

This adds a note one octave lower, creating a richer sound.

Parameter Value Explanation
RANGE
This selects the register to which the eect is applied.
RANGE 1 (B1–E6)
B1 (corresponds to the sound of an open 7th
string) to E6 (corresponds to the 1st string
played at the 24th fret)
RANGE 2 (B1–E5)
B1 (corresponds to the sound of an open 7th
string) to E5 (corresponds to the 1st string
played at the 12th fret)
RANGE 3 (B1–E4)
B1 (corresponds to the sound of an open 7th
string) to E4 (corresponds to the sound of an
open 1st string)
RANGE 4 (B1–E3)
B1 (corresponds to the sound of an open 7th
string) to E3 (corresponds to the 4th string
played at the 2nd fret)
OCTAVE
LEVEL 0–100 Adjusts the volume of the sound one octave
below.
DIRECT MIX 0–100 Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.

PITCH SHIFTER

This eect changes the pitch of the original sound (up or down) within a

range of two octaves.

Parameter Value Explanation
VOICE
Selects the number of voices for the pitch shift sound.
1-VOICE One-voice pitch-shifted sound output in
monaural.
2-MONO Two-voice pitch-shifted sound (PS1, PS2)
output in monaural.
2-STEREO Two-voice pitch-shifted sound (PS1, PS2)
output through left and right channels.
PS1:PITCH
PS2:PITCH -24–+24 Adjusts the amount of pitch shift (the
amount of interval) in semitone steps.
DIRECT MIX 0–100 Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.
PS1:MODE
PS2:MODE
Selection for the pitch shifter mode.
FAST,
MEDIUM,
SLOW
The response is slower in the order of FAST,
MEDIUM and SLOW, but the modulation is
lessened in the same order.
MONO
MONO is used for inputting single notes.
* You may be unable to produce the
intended eect when playing chords (two
or more notes played simultaneously).
PS1:FINE
PS2:FINE -50–+50
Make ne adjustments to the interval. The
amount of the change in the Fine 100 is
equivalent to that of the Pitch 1.
PS1:PRE DLY
PS2:PRE DLY
0 ms–300 ms,
BPM –
Adjusts the time from when the direct sound
is heard until the pitch shifted sounds are
heard. Normally you can leave this set at 0
ms.
* When set to BPM, the value of each
parameter will be set according to the
value of the “MASTER BPM” specied for
each patch. This makes it easier to achieve
eect sound settings that match the tempo
of the song.
* If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than
the range of allowable settings, it is then
synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4
of that time.
PS1:LEVEL
PS2:LEVEL 0–100 Adjusts the volume of the pitch shifter.
PS1:F.BACK 0–100 Adjusts the feedback amount of the pitch
shift sound.
