Beat Effects

1. DELAY effect

Adds delay sound to the original sound.

[BPM mode]

A delay sound is added to the original sound at the value set with the TIME dial.

÷The DEPTH dial can be used to adjust the feedback level. Feedback means to input the delay sound back into the delay input. This control allows the amount of the feedback to be adjusted (near the [MAX] setting, the sound level rises).

÷The CHARACTER dial can be used to adjust the amount of filter applied to the feedback sound.

÷The MIX dial can be used to adjust the levels of the original and delay sounds.

[RHYTHM mode]

A delay sound set with the TAP button (TAP delay sound) is added to the original sound (Max 8-TAP).

2. ECHO effect

Adds delay sound to the original sound.

[BPM mode]

A delay sound is added to the original sound at the value set with the TIME dial.

[RHYTHM mode]

Adds TAP delay sound to the original sound (Max 8-TAP).

Difference from the DELAY effect:

÷Even if the BEAT EFFECTS lever switch is moved from [ON] to [OFF], the feedback sound or TAP delay sound will continue.

÷In the BPM mode, if the DEPTH dial is set to [MAX] and the BEAT EFFECTS lever switch is moved from [ON] to [OFF], a hold-delay effect will be produced without attenuating the feedback sound (near the [MAX] setting, the sound level rises).

In the RHYTHM mode, when the switch is turned [OFF] the effect will end with the final TAP delay sound for the original sound.
