TASCAM effect parameters

The TASCAM effects (chorus, de-esser, delay, dis- tortion, exciter, flanger, guitar compressor, phaser, pitch shifter, soft compressor) use the third row of PODs as follows (display labels are shown in paren-

theses in (UPPERCASE)). When the basic effect is cho- sen from the library, all on-screen controls change to match those of the base effect:

POD 1	POD 2	POD3	POD 4
Chorus (CHORUS)
Rate (RATE)	Depth (DEPTH)	Pre-delay (PRE DLY)	Feedback (FEEDBACK)
0.0Hz – 10Hz	0% – 100%	0.05ms – 500ms	0% – 90%
De-esser (DE-ESSOR)
—	Threshold level (THRESHOLD)	Knee shape (KNEE)	Center frequency (CNTR FREQ)
	–40dB – –1dB	0.50 – 1.00	1.0kHz – 10.0kHz
Delay (DELAY)
Delay time (DLY TIME)	Feedback time (FB.TIME)	Feedback level (FEEDBACK)	Feedback type (TYPE)
0.05ms – 650ms	0.05ms – 650ms	0% – 90%	Stereo/Ping-pong/Multi-tap
Distortion (DISTORTION)a
–	Drive ratio (DRV RATIO)	Drive boost (DRV BOOST)	Drive EQ (DRV EQ)
	0 – 42	x1 – x32	Overdrive 1/Overdrive 2/
			Distortion 1/Distortion 2/ Amp
