TAPE ECHO
This effect simulates a tape echo.
TIME 1 – 99,
1.0 – 2.0 FEEDBACK 0 – 98, 1.0 MIX 0 – 98, 1.0
Adjusts the delay time. In the range
from 10 – 990 ms, the adjustment is
made in 10-ms steps (1 – 99). For 1
second and above, the adjustment is
made in 100-ms steps (1.0 – 2.0).
Adjusts the feedback amount.
Adjusts the level of the effect
sound mixed to the original
sound.
dd
DYNAMIC DELAY
This is a dynamic delay where the effect volume changes depending on the input signal level. With positive
settings, the effect volume increases at higher input signal levels. With negative settings, the effect volume
increases at lower input signal levels.
TIME 1 – 99,
1.0 – 2.0 AMOUNT 0 – 10 SENSE -10 – -1, 1 – 10
Adjusts the delay time. In the range
from 10 – 990 ms, the adjustment is
made in 10-ms steps (1 – 99). For 1
second and above, the adjustment is
made in 100-ms steps (1.0 – 2.0).
Adjusts the level of the effect

dF
DYNAMIC FLANGER
This is a dynamic flanger where the effect volume changes depending on the input signal level. With positive
settings, the effect volume increases at higher input signal levels. With negative settings, the effect volume
increases at lower input signal levels.
DEPTH 0 – 98, 1.0 RATE 0 – 50 SENSE -10 – -1, 1 – 10
Adjusts the modulation depth. Adjusts the modulation rate. Adjusts the effect sensitivity.
MP
MONO PITCH SHIFTER
This is a monophonic pitch shifter with low sound modulation, suitable for single-note playing.
SHIFT -12 – -1, dt,
1 – 12, 24 TONE 0 – 10 MIX 0 – 98, 1.0
Adjusts the pitch shift amount in
semitones. Selecting "dt" gives a
detuning effect.
Adjusts the sound quality.
Adjusts the level of the effect sound
mixed to the original sound.
HP
HARMONIZED PITCH SHIFTER
This is an intelligent pitch shifter that automatically generates harmonies according to a preset key and
scale.
SCALE -6, -5, -4, -3,
-m, m, 3, 4, 5, 6 KEY C, Co, d...b MIX 0 – 98, 1.0
Determines the interval for the pitch
shifted sound (see Table 2).
Determines the tonic for the scale used
for pitch shifting (see Table 3).
Adjusts the level of the effect sound
mixed to the original sound.

Effect Types and Parameters
ZOOM G2 29DELAY

DELAY module

This is a delay module which allows long delay times and use of the hold function.
dL
DELAY
This is a delay with a maximum setting of 5000 ms.
Pd
PINGPONG DELAY
This is a ping-pong type delay where the delay sound alternates between left and right.
EC
ECHO
This is a warm sounding long delay of up to 5000 ms duration.
These three effect types have the same parameters.
TIME 1 – 99,
1.0 – 5.0 FEEDBACK 0 – 98, 1.0 MIX 0 – 98, 1.0
Adjusts the delay time. In the
range from 10 – 990 ms, the
adjustment is made in 10-ms
steps (1 – 99). For 1 second and
above, the adjustment is made in
100-ms steps (1.0 – 5.0).
Adjusts the feedback amount.
Adjusts the level of the effect
sound mixed to the original
sound.
REVERB

REVERB module

This module comprises various reverb functions such as hall reverb, early reflection, and
multi-tap delay.
HL
HALL
This reverb simulates the acoustics of a concert hall.
rM
ROOM
This reverb simulates the acoustics of a room.
SP
SPRING
This effect simulates a spring-type reverb.
The above three effect types have the same parameters.
DECAY 1 – 30 TONE 0 – 10 MIX 0 – 98, 1.0
Adjusts the duration of the reverb. Adjusts the sound quality.
Adjusts the level of the effect sound
mixed to the original sound.
Er
EARLY REFLECTION
This effect isolates only the early reflection components of the reverb.
DECAY 1 – 30 SHAPE ±10 MIX 0 – 98, 1.0
Adjusts the duration of the reverb.
Adjusts the envelope of the effect sound.
In the negative range, the envelope is
reversed. At 0, the effect is a gate reverb.
In the positive range, the envelope is a
decay-type envelope.
Adjusts the mixing ratio of
original sound and effect sound.
Md
MULTI TAP DELAY
This effect produces several delay components with different delay times.
TIME 1 – 99,
1.0 – 3.0 PATTERN 1 – 8 MIX 0 – 98, 1.0
Adjusts the delay time. In the
range from 10 – 990 ms, the
adjustment is made in 10-ms
steps (1 – 99). For 1 second and
above, the adjustment is made in
100-ms steps (1.0 – 3.0).
Selects the combination pattern for the
taps. The selection ranges from
rhythmical to random patterns.
Adjusts the mixing ratio of
original sound and effect sound.
