Adding Various Effects to a Voice

Adding Modulation to the Sound (Rotary Effect)

Rotary is an effect which simulates the sound of rotating speakers. There is a choice of two settings: Fast and Slow.

The Rotary effect can be applied to the following sounds.

•Voices assigned to [Lower] button, [Full] button, and [Jazz] button.

•Voices assigned to the [Others] buttons for each part.

fig.04-05

1. Select the voice to which you wish to apply the Rotary effect.

2. Press the Rotary Sound [Fast/Slow] button to switch between Rotary Fast (LED lit) and Rotary Slow (LED turned off).

	LED lit (Fast)	The effect obtained is equivalent to speakers
	LED lit (Fast)	being rapidly rotated.
		being rapidly rotated.

	LED turned off (Slow)	Effect simulating the slow rotation of speakers.

When you switch the rotary effect from “Fast” to “Slow,” the modulation will slow down gradually, and when you switch from “Slow” to “Fast” the modulation will speed up gradually.

Some sounds do not allow the Rotary effect to be applied. For details refer to “Voice List” (p. 102).

You can assign the Rotary Sound [Fast/ Slow] button function to the foot switches located on each side of the Expression Pedal (p. 87).
