Adding Modulation to the Sound Rotary Effect | Roland AT20s specification

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 buttons in the upper line of “Upper Organ” and “Lower Organ.”

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

Some sounds do not allow the Rotary effect to be applied. For details refer to “Voice List” (p. 105).

The Rotary effect will be applied to the voice.

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

	tated.

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.
