Roland XV-88 owner manual Isolator, 60 3D Chorus, 152

Chapter 7. Adding Effects

Mode

Sets the manner in which the volume changes as one beat progresses to the next.

LEGATO: The change in volume from one beat’s level to the next remains unaltered. If the level of a following beat is the same as the one preceding it, then there is no change in volume.

SLASH: The level is momentarily set to 0 before progressing to the level for the next beat. This change in volume occurs even if the level of a following beat is the same as the one preceding it.

Shuffle #

Sets the timing of volume changes in levels for even- numbered Beats (Beat 1-2/Beat 1-4/Beat 2-2/...). The higher the value selected, the later the timing with which the beat progresses.

Level (Output Level)

Adjust the output level.

59: ISOLATOR

An equalizer which cuts the volume greatly, allowing you to add a special effect to the sound by cutting the volume in varying ranges.

L in	Isolator	Low Boost	L out
R in			R out
	Isolator	Low Boost

High (Level High) #

Middle (Level Middle) #

Low (Level Low) #

These boost and cut each of the High, Middle, and Low frequency ranges. At -60 dB, the sound becomes inaudible. 0 dB is equivalent to the input level of the sound.

Anti Phase Mid

(Anti Phase Middle Switch/Level)

This turns the Anti-Phase function on and off and sets the level settings for the Middle frequency ranges. When turned on, the counter-channel of stereo sound is inverted and added to the signal. Adjusting these levels for certain frequencies allows you to lend emphasis to specific parts. (This is effective only for stereo source.)

Anti Phase Low (Anti Phase Low Switch/Level)

This turns the Anti-Phase function on and off and sets the level settings for the Low frequency ranges. When turned on, the counter-channel of stereo sound is inverted and added to the signal. Adjusting these levels for certain frequencies allows you to lend emphasis to specific parts. (This is effective only for stereo source.)

Low Boost (Low Booster Switch/Level)

Adjust whether Low Booster will be used (ON) or not (OFF). This emphasizes the bottom to create a heavy bass sound. And adjust the level. Increasing this value gives you a heavier low end. (Depending on the Isolator and filter settings this effect may be hard to distinguish.)

Level (Output Level)

Adjust the output level.

60: 3D CHORUS

This applies a 3D effect to the chorus sound. The chorus sound will be positioned 90 degrees left and 90 degrees right.

Pre Dly (Pre Delay Time)

Adjust the delay time from the direct sound until when the chorus sound is heard.

Rate (LFO Rate) #

Adjust the modulation frequency of the chorus sound.

Rate parameter can be set as a note-value of a specified tempo. In this case, specify the value of the desired note.

When Rate is Set as a Note Value

As the specified tempo, you may use either the Patch Tempo (p. 71) or the tempo clock of the XV-88’s system (p. 169).

Depth (LFO Depth)

Adjust the modulation depth of the chorus sound.

Phase

Adjust the spaciousness of the chorus sound.
