Freeze
Effect list
The following table shows the default parameter values for the effect belonging to the Freeze A type (CLASSIC bank).
Basic parameters
Freeze B (CLASSIC bank)
This is a freeze effect based on earlier models of the SPX series. You can specify the pitch of the playback. The parameter
structure is simpler than the corresponding effect of the PRESET bank.
Each aspect of the sound is controlled by the following effect parameters.
Recording: REC MODE, TRG. DLY, RECORD
Playback: PLAY
Playback pitch: PITCH, FINE, BASE KEY
Output level: OUT LVL, MIX BAL.

Parameter name Range Explanation
REC MODE MANUAL, AUTO Recording method. Choose MANUAL (manual) or AUTO (automatic).
TRG. DLY –1000—+1000 ms Delay from when recording is triggered until recording actually begins.
RECORD --- When REC MODE is MANUAL, press the [ DEC] button (G) to enter record-ready mode; then
press the [ INC] button (G) to begin recording.
PLAY --- Playback will continue while you press the [ INC] or [ DEC] button (G).
PITCH –12—+12 Amount of pitch change for the playback, in units of one semitone. Positive (+) settings will make
the playback pitch higher than the original pitch, and negative (–) settings will lower it.
FINE –50—+50
Amount of pitch change for the playback, in units of one cent (1/100th of a semitone). Positive (+)
settings will make the playback pitch higher than the original pitch, and negative (–) settings will
lower it.
BASE KEY OFF, C 1—C 6
This specifies the base key for incoming MIDI note-on messages. When a note-on message is
received, the PITCH value will be set by the difference between this setting and the value of the
note-on. For example if you set BASE KEY as C4, a received note-on message of C3 will cause
PITCH to be set to –12, making the sample play one octave lower than the original pitch. If you set
this parameter as C2, a received note-on message of D2 will cause PITCH to be set to +2, making
the sample play two semitones higher than the original pitch. If this parameter is OFF, MIDI note-
on messages will not be received.
OUT LVL 0—100% Output level after the original sound and effect sound have been mixed. Decrease this value if you
want to lower the output. At a setting of 0% there will be no output.
MIX BAL. 0—100% Balance between the original sound and effect sound. At a setting of 0% only the original sound
will be output; at a setting of 100% only the effect sound will be output.
No. Effect name REC MODE TRG. DLY RECORD PLAY PITCH FINE BASE KEY OUT LVL MIX BAL.
