Chapter 7. Adding Effects

Step Rate (Step Rate Switch/Step Rate #)

Determines whether the pitch is changed in a stepped fashion (ON) or not (OFF).

And adjust the rate at which the pitch will change.

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

When Step 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).

Out (Output Mode)

Adjust the method that will be used to hear the sound that is output to the OUTPUT jacks. The optimal 3D effect will be achieved if you select SPEAKER when using speakers, or PHONES when using headphones.

Lo G (Low Gain)

Adjust the low frequency gain (amount of boost or cut). Positive (+) settings will emphasize (boost) the low frequency range.

Hi G (High Gain)

Adjust the high frequency gain (amount of boost or cut). Positive (+) settings will emphasize (boost) the high frequency range.

Balance #

Adjust the volume balance between the direct sound and the flanger sound.

With a setting of D100:0W only the direct sound will be output, and with a setting of D0:100W only the flanger sound will be output.

Lev (Output Level)

Adjust the output level.

62: TREMOLO

Tremolo cyclically modulates the volume to add tremolo effect to the sound.

Mod Wave (Modulation Wave)

TRI: The sound will be modulated like a triangle wave.

SQR: The sound will be modulated like a square wave.

SIN: The sound will be modulated like a sine wave.

SAW1/2: The sound will be modulated like a sawtooth wave. The teeth in SAW1 and SAW2 point at opposite directions.

Rate #

Adjust the frequency (speed) of the change.

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 #

Sets the depth to which the effect is applied.

LowGain (Low Gain)

Adjust the low frequency gain (amount of boost or cut). Positive (+) settings will emphasize (boost) the low frequency range.

Hi Gain (High Gain)

Adjust the high frequency gain (amount of boost or cut). Positive (+) settings will emphasize (boost) the high frequency range.

Level (Output Level)

Adjust the output level.
