WAVE SYNTH Common Parameters
Besides the other COSM SYNTH parameters, the VG-99 also
includes the following shared parameters.
.
Parameter/
Range Explanation
WAVE SHAPE
Selects the wave type on which the synth sound is based.
SAW
Creates a synth sound with a sawtooth waveform.
SQUARE
Creates a synth sound with a square waveform.
WAVE SENS
(Wave Sensitivity)
0–100 This controls the input sensitivity of the
wave synth.
WAVE ATTACK
0–100
Adjusts the time it takes for the synth sound to
rise after a string is plucked. When it is set to a
lower value, the sound will rise quickly. When
it is set higher, the sound will rise slowly.
WAVE DECAY
0–100
Adjusts the time it takes for the synth sound to
decay. The synth sound decays more quickly
when this parameter is set to a lower value. Set-
ting a higher value increases the decay time.
WAVE LEVEL
0–100 Adjusts the volume of the synth sound.
CUTOFF
0–100 Adjusts the cutoff frequency at which the fil-
ter cuts off the sound’s harmonic compo-
nents.
This parameter determines the sound that
will result after the filter has stopped vary-
ing due to FILTER DEPTH.
RESO (Resonance)
0–100 Adjusts the resonance (distinctiveness of the
sound). As the value is increased, sounds in
the frequency range near the cutoff frequen-
cy are boosted, making the sound more dis-
tinctive and unique.
FILTER TYPE
-12 dB, -24 dB Selects the curve of attenuation in the filter.
The -24 dB setting has very steep filtering
characteristics.
FILTER ATTACK
0–100 Sets the filter attack time.
FILTER DECAY
0–100 Sets the filter decay time.
FILTER DEPTH
-50–+50 Adjusts the depth of the filter’s change.
When set to a positive value, the VCF cutoff
frequency shifts from a high value to a low
value. When set to a negative value, the VCF
cutoff frequency shifts from a low value to a
high value.
Parameter/
Range Explanation
EQ (Equalizer)
A four-band equalizer with high and low ranges is provided. The
sound processed by the effect can be boosted by frequency range be-
fore it is output.
EQ SW (Equalizer Switch)
OFF, ON Turns the EQ effect on/off.
TOTAL GAIN
-12–+12dB Adjusts the volume before the equalizer.
LOW GAIN
-12–+12dB Adjusts the low frequency range tone.
HIGH GAIN
-12–+12dB Adjusts the high frequency range tone.
LOW MID FREQ (Low Middle Frequency)
20Hz–10.0kHz
Specifies the center of the frequency range
that will be adjusted by the LOW MID GAIN.
LOW MID Q (Low Middle Q)
0.5–16 Adjusts the width of the area affected by the
EQ centered at the LOW MID FREQ.
Higher values will narrow the area.
LOW MID GAIN (Low Middle Gain)
-12–+12dB
Adjusts the low-middle frequency range tone.
HIGH MID FREQ (High Middle Frequency)
20Hz–10.0kHz Specifies the center of the frequency range that
will be adjusted by the HIGH MID GAIN.
HIGH MID Q (High Middle Q)
0.5–16 Adjusts the width of the area affected by the
EQ centered at the HIGH MID FREQ.
Higher values will narrow the area.
HIGH MID GAIN (High Middle Gain)
-12–+12dB Adjusts the high-middle frequency range tone.
Parameter/
Range Explanation
STRING PAN 1st–6th
100:0–0:100 This sets the left/right pan of each string.
* The pan effect is cancelled if a monaural effect
or COSM amp is connected after the COSM
GUITAR effect.
STRING LEVEL 1st–6th
0–100 Specifies the output level of each string.
Parameter/
Range Explanation
MIX LEVEL
COSM GUITAR
0–100 Specifies the level of the COSM GUITAR.
NORMAL PU (Normal Pickup)
0–100 Adjusts the volume of the normal pickup.
