Effect Types

Chorus

Simulates the rich character of a vocal choir or string ensemble, by layering a

 

slightly detuned version of the sound over the original to enrich it.

Flanger

Creates a shifting comb-filter, which adds motion and a “hollow” tone to the

 

sound.

Celeste

A three-phase chorus without modulation.

Ensemble

A three-phase chorus with a slight modulation to each phase.

Delay 1-3

Adds echoes to the sound. The three types differ in the length of time between

 

the echoes.

Auto Pan

Moves the sound left and right across the stereo field at a variable rate.

Tremolo

Modulates the volume of the sound. This is a vibrato type effect.

Tremulant

A combination of Tremolo and Vibrato. It simulates the tremulant pipes of a

 

church organ.

Phaser

Creates a phase change, adding motion to the sound.

Rotary 1-2

This effect simulates the sound of the Rotary Speaker cabinet commonly used

 

with electric organs. Rotary 2 adds distortion. The soft pedal is used to change

 

the speed of the rotor between SLOW and FAST.

Auto Wah

Sweeps a tone filter up and down at the beginning of a note, recreating the popular

 

vintage wah wah pedal sound.

Enhancer

Emphasizes high frequencies to make a sound more easily discernible in a mix.

Distortion

Adds frequencies that were not present in the original sound, resulting in a “fuzzy”

 

or warmer tone.
