Type Explanation

THRU The eect won’t be applied.

DELAY Stereo delay

TAPE ECHO

A virtual tape echo that produces a realistic tape delay sound. This simulates the tape echo section of a

Roland RE-201 Space Echo.

CHORUS This applies a chorus eect.

FLANGER The anging eect gives a twisting, jet-airplane-like character to the sound.

PHASER A phase-shifted sound is added to the original sound and modulated.

EQUALIZER This adjusts the tone as a equalizer.

COMP Flattens out high levels and boosts low levels, smoothing out uctuations in volume.

WAH This produces a wah eect by modifying the lter in correspondence with the volume of the performance.

DIST This eect distorts the sound to create long sustain.

RINGMOD

This is an eect that applies amplitude modulation (AM) to the input signal, producing bell-like sounds. You

can also change the modulation frequency in response to changes in the volume of the sound sent into the

eect.

REVERB Adds reverberation to the sound, simulating an acoustic space.

Press the [>] button to select an eect parameter, and use the [-][+] buttons to adjust the value.

The eect parameters dier depending on the type.
