EFFECTS

Filter

Modifies the brightness of the sound.

Parameter	Range	Controller	Parameter function
Rate	0–127,	C1 knob	Specifies the speed of modulation.
	note value*		If set to a note value, the modulation speed will synchronize to the tempo.
Cutoff frequency	0–127	C2 knob	Specifies the frequency (cutoff frequency) at which the filter will begin to take
			effect
Resonance	0–127	C3 knob	Emphasizes the region near the cutoff frequency
Effect type	F-1–F-8	[INC]/[DEC]	Selects the effect type
		(DISPLAY =
		TONE/TYPE)

Isolator

This is an equalizer that drastically cuts the sound, producing a unique effect by cutting the volume of a specific

frequency range.

Parameter	Range	Controller	Parameter function
Low gain	0–127	C1 knob	Specifies the volume of the lower range
Middle gain	0–127	C2 knob	Specifies the volume of the midrange
High gain	0–127	C3 knob	Specifies the volume of the upper range
Effect type	I-1–I-7	[INC]/[DEC]	Selects the effect type
		(DISPLAY =
		TONE/TYPE)

Phaser

Adds a phase-shifted sound to the original sound, creating modulation and producing a sense of rotation and

depth.

Parameter	Range	Controller	Parameter function
Rate	0–127,	C1 knob	Specifies the speed of modulation.
	note value*		If a note value is specified, the modulation speed will synchronize to the tempo.
Depth	0–127	C2 knob	Specifies the depth of modulation
Resonance	0–127	C3 knob	Emphasizes the region near the center frequency
Effect type	P-1–P-8	[INC]/[DEC]	Selects the effect type
		(DISPLAY =
		TONE/TYPE)

Slicer

Repeatedly cuts the sound, giving a conventional sound the character of a rhythmic backing phrase

Parameter	Range	Controller	Parameter function
Rate	0–127,	C1 knob	Specifies the cutting speed.
	note value*		If this is set to a note value, the cutting speed will synchronize to the tempo.
Gate time	0–127	C2 knob	Specifies the note length to cut
Pan	L64–cnt–R63	C3 knob	Specifies the panning of the sound that is cut
Effect type	S-1–S-7	[INC]/[DEC]	Selects the effect type
		(DISPLAY =
		TONE/TYPE)

* Note value: 16th note, 8th note, quarter note, half note, whole note, whole note x 2, whole note x 4
