Making chorus settings

Regardless of the mode, only one type of chorus can be used simultaneously.

There are eight types of chorus. You can select any one of these. After selecting the Type, you can change the values for each of the parameters.

Type (Chorus Type)

You can choose from 8 types of chorus.

Value

CHORUS 1–4:General chorus settings. Adds breadth and fullness to the sound.

FEEDBACK CHORUS: Chorus that produces a flanger-like effect, creating a soft sound.

FLANGER:This effect produces a rising and falling sweep reminiscent of a jet airplane.

SHORT DELAY: This is a delay with a short delay time.

SHORT DELAY(FB): This is a delay with a short delay time and many repeats.

“Chorus Type” provides several preset-like example settings of the chorus parameters. When you switch types, the other chorus parameters will change according to the settings of the type you select. If you intend to edit the other parameters, select a type first, and then edit the other parameters.

Pre-LPF (Chorus pre-low pass filter)

A low-pass filter can be applied to the sound coming into the chorus to cut the high-frequency range. Higher values will cut more of the high frequencies, resulting in a more mellow chorus sound.

Value: 0–7

Level (Chorus Level)

Sets the amount of the chorus sound.

Value: 0–127

Feedback (Chorus Feedback Level)

Sets the level at which the chorus sound is re-input (fed back) into the chorus. By using feedback, a denser chorus sound can be created. Higher values result in a greater feedback level.

Value: 0–127

Delay (Chorus Delay Time)

Sets the delay time of the chorus effect.

Value: 0–127

Rate (Chorus Rate)

Sets the speed (frequency) at which the chorus sound is modulated. Higher values result in faster modulation.

Value: 0–127
