Chapter 4. Effect Settings
FLANGER
Produces a metallic resonance that rises and falls somewhat
like a jet airplane taking off or landing.
Parameter | Value | Description |
|
|
|
Delay | Tone of the flanger | |
LFO Rate | Frequency of modulation | |
Depth | Depth of modulation | |
Feedback | Amount of the flanger | |
|
| sound that is fed back into |
|
| the effect (minus: inverts |
|
| the phase) |
Phase | Spatial spread of the | |
|
| sound |
PHASER
Adds a
a swirling modulation.
Parameter | Value | Description |
|
|
|
Freq | Basic frequency at which | |
|
| the sound will be modu- |
|
| lated |
LFO Rate | Frequency of modulation | |
Depth | Depth of modulation | |
Resonance | Amount of feedback |
CHORUS
Gives richness and spaciousness to the sound.
Parameter | Value | Description |
|
|
|
Delay | Tone of the chorus | |
LFO Rate | Frequency of modulation | |
Depth | Depth of modulation | |
Phase | Spatial spread of the | |
|
| sound |
ENHANCER
Controls the overtone structure of the high frequencies,
adding sparkle and brightness to the sound.
Parameter | Value | Description |
|
|
|
Sens | Sensitivity of the enhancer | |
LF Level | Volume level of the low | |
|
| frequency range of the di- |
|
| rect sound |
PITCH SHIFT
Shifts the pitch of the original sound.
Parameter | Value | Description |
|
|
|
Mode | Setting a higher value re- | |
|
| sults in a slower response, |
|
| but steadier pitch. |
Delay | Time until the | |
|
| ed sound is heard |
Coarse | Amount of pitch shift | |
|
| (semitone steps) |
Fine | Amount of pitch shift (2- | |
|
| cent steps) |
Feedback | Amount of the | |
|
| ed sound that is fed back |
|
| into the effect (minus: in- |
|
| verts the phase) |
OVERDRIVE
Creates a soft distortion similar to that produced by vacuum
tube amplifiers.
Parameter | Value | Description |
|
|
|
Drive | Amount of distortion | |
HF Level | Level of high frequency | |
|
| range |
LF Bypass | OFF, ON | Bypass for the low fre- |
|
| quency range |
|
| When this is set to |
|
| “OFF,” the low frequen- |
|
| cy range also has a dis- |
|
| tortion sound. |
Expanse | OFF, ON | Adding the spatial spread |
|
| of the sound |
DISTORTION
Produces a more intense distortion than Overdrive.
Parameter | Value | Description |
|
|
|
Gain | Amount of distortion | |
HF Level | Level of high frequency | |
|
| range |
LF Bypass | OFF, ON | Bypass for the low fre- |
|
| quency range |
|
| When this is set to |
|
| “OFF,” the low frequen- |
|
| cy range also has a dis- |
|
| tortion sound. |
Expanse | OFF, ON | Adding the spatial spread |
|
| of the sound |
