SUB DELAY (Sub Delay)
This is a delay with the maximum delay time of 400 ms. This effect is
useful for making the sound fatter.
NS (Noise Suppressor)
This effect reduces the noise and hum picked up by guitar pickups.
Since it suppresses the noise in synchronization with the envelope of
the guitar sound (the way in which the guitar sound decays over
time), it has very little effect on the guitar sound, and does not harm
the natural character of the sound.
* Please connect the noise suppressor in the signal path prior to the
reverberation type effect. This setup will prevent an natural break of
the reverberation type effect.
Parameter/
Range Explanation
DELAY TIME
1 ms–400 ms,
BPM –BPM
Adjusts the delay time.
When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according
to the value of the BPM (p. 163) specified for each patch. This makes
it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the
song.
* If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than the range of allowable
settings, it is then synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4 of that
time.
* After setting DELAY TIME to BPM ( – ), if you tap [F1] (TAP),
the BPM value will change to match the timing of your tapping.
FEEDBACK
0–100 Adjusts the volume that is returned to the
input.
Feedback refers to returning the delayed
signal back into the input of the delay. High-
er settings will result in more delay repeats.
EFFECT LEVEL
0–120 Adjusts the volume of delay sound.
Parameter/
Range Explanation
NS SW (Noise Suppressor Switch)
OFF, ON Turns the NS effect on/off.
THRSH (Threshold)
0–100 Adjust this parameter as appropriate for the
volume of the noise. If the noise level is
high, a higher setting is appropriate. If the
noise level is low, a lower setting is appro-
priate. Adjust this value until the decay of
the guitar sound is as natural as possible.
* High settings for the threshold parameter
may result in there being no sound when you
play with your guitar volume turned down.
REL (Release)
0–100 Adjusts the amount of time from the point at
which application of the noise suppressor
begins to when the volume is fully attenuat-
ed.
DETECT
This controls the noise suppressor based on the volume level for the
point specified in Detect.
INPUT Volume of the COSM guitar and normal
pickup
NS IN (NS Input) Noise suppressor input volume.
