DISTORTION/AMP
DISTORTION/AMP
Distortion eects and amp simulations
VOCAL DISTORTION: This eect is very hip when used on vocals and drum loops,
and is combined with a delay and anger.
TUBE DISTORTION: This eect simulates the sound of dierent tube types.
Whenan analog tube, as found in a guitar amplier, is overamplied by raising
the input signal (e.g. of a guitar), the original signal is mixed with the harmonic
overtones. With rising overmodulation (also known as saturation of tubes),
theoriginal signal is distorted and the sound is fresh and full. This is a classic
sound in rock music.
GUITAR AMP: This eect simulates the sound characteristics of a complete guitar
amplier. You can connect a guitar or bass (after appropriate pre-amplication)
directly to the VIRTUALIZER 3D, and from there to a mixing console or
recordingdevice.
TRI FUZZ: This is a special guitar distortion type. Jimi Hendrix was one of the rst
guitarists to recognize the appeal of this broadband transistor overmodulation.
Thehumming distortion of the FUZZ BOX has again become popular with
alternative rock and grunge. The VIRTUALIZER 3D’s fuzz works in three dierent
frequency bands.
SPEAKER SIMULATION: The VIRTUALIZER 3D is able to simulate various types of
speakers. Typical guitar amplifying speakers as well as multimedia speakers are
available. You can also use a parametric equalizer to further rene the sound.
RING MODULATOR: This eect allows a radical alienation of audio signals.
Similar to the principle of FM radio, the signal is multiplied by a carrier frequency,
so that frequency modulation (FM) takes place. This eect is very well suited for
vocal alienation (robot voice).
LO-FI: For years, digital technique has been striving for high quality, lownoise,
andbrilliant sounds. In the recent past there have been increasing calls for a
return “tothe roots” to achieve the warmth of the old analog sounds. Thetechno/
dance group swears by vinyl and some music lovers miss the charm of good old
vinyl discs and tape machines. This trend is known as Lo-Fi (instead of Hi-Fi).
We have taken this tendency into account and included the relevant eect in
the FX2000. Your recordings sound like 8-bit audio, complete with noise and
humming like the old days! A true drum loop in TR808/TR909 style really gets
going when it sounds thick and dusty.

- Reverb reverb 7
- Auto panning this sound effect which was very popular in the beginnings of stereo technique is achieved by allowing a sound source often the lead guitar or a synthesizer to wander from one end of the stereo image to another or by just letting it wander repeatedly 8
- Chorus this effect slightly detunes the original signal a very pleasant detune effect is created in connection with the pitch variation the chorus effect is quite often and extensively used for dispersing signals analog chorus simulates a guitar chorus effect pedal while vintage chorus imitates a classic analog studio chorus ultra chorus creates the sound of an eight person vocal chorus 8
- Delay algorithms 8
- Delay delay 8
- Flanger the word flange means tape spool and this explains the characteristics of the effect originally the flanger effect was generated with two tape recorders which ran synchronously the same audio signal was recorded on both machines if you put a finger on the left spool of one of the machines the spool and the playback speed are slowed down the generated delay results in phase shifting of the signals vintage flanger simulates a guitar flanger effect pedal and jet stream flanger sounds like a classic analog flanger 8
- Leslie the simulation of a classic effect that is normally generated with a very heavy enclosure with a slow or fast rotating speaker the bass speaker drum is covered by a partly opened rotating cap while both of the high pitch horns horn displaced by 180 revolve around the same perpendicular axis here the physical principle of the doppler effect for modulation of signals is used 8
- Modulation and pitch shifter effects 8
- Modulation modulation 8
- Phaser with the phaser a second phase shifted signal is added to the original audio signal the resulting sound is thicker and above all livelier this effect is often used for guitar sounds and keyboards in the 70s it was also extensively used for other instruments like electric pianos here vintage phaser represents a guitar phaser effect pedal dual phaser processes the left and the right channels separately 8
- Ping pong a delay effect with changing stereo positioning where the time intervals between the repetitions can be changed 8
- Pitch shifter this effect changes the pitch of the input signal you can generate musical intervals and harmonies or simply a single voice detuning by several semitones upward alienates voices and is used often in cartoons here you can choose among a stereo two and three vocal pitch shifter at the left stop of edit c the pitch shifters 1 and 2 are synchronized to a stereo pitch shifter pitch shifter 3 can be switched off by turning edit e fully counterclockwise 8
- Stereo delay a delay of the input signal different tempo settings allow interesting delay effects 8
- Tape echo similar to the stereo delay with the difference being that the repetitions have less presence this simulates the character of the original tape echo that was used before the digital era and can be thought of as a vintage sound the tape echo s reflections include high and low pass filters 8
- Tremolo this effect was originally found on guitar amplifiers and is once again trendy it is a fast or slow periodic variation of the volume 8
- Vibrato for this effect the peak frequency of a tone is periodically and uniformly changed quickly or slowly it is often used for guitar playing 8
- Virtualizer 3d fx2000 user manual 8
- Compressor limiter when the signal level exceeds the level control limit of the signal processing unit it must be limited dynamically to avoid distortions this is achieved by installing a compressor or a limiter the limiter abruptly limits the signal above a specified threshold while a compressor acts softly over a large range the analog compr limiter is modeled after a famous analog compressor unit 9
- De esser a problem often encountered in recording situations is the sibilant ssss sound of the human voice the de esser is used to remove strong hissing sounds from the audio signal 9
- Denoiser the denoiser is used to eliminate or reduce noise and other interference 9
- Dynamic effects 9
- Dynamics dynamics 9
- Expander background noises of all types noise humming etc limit the dynamic range of the actual signal as long as the level of the actual signal lies significantly above the background noise the noise is inaudible the interference signal in this case is masked by the actual signal the expander is used to effectively expand the dynamic range of signals signals with small amplitudes such as background noise can be weakened thereby reducing the background noise 9
- Gate on stage and in studios there are diverse applications where a noise gate is needed for example microphones that tend to cause feedback can be defused in addition you can use a gate to eliminate unwanted noise when used on vocals for example the signal is simply masked during pauses thus eliminating all noise needless to say a gate used on vocals has to open very quickly otherwise the first syllables of soft or whispered passages would not be audible 9
- Ultramizer the ultramizer function divides the sound spectrum into two frequency bands and as a result allows inaudible but extremely effective compression this is especially helpful during mix down the fx2000 analyses the received audio material and automatically adjusts input gain and compression parameters 9
- Virtualizer 3d fx2000 user manual 9
- Wave designer using this effect you can influence the envelope of a signal by specifying its volume a attack indicates the time a tone needs to reach its full volume r release determines how long it takes before a tone dies away 9
- Binauralizer the binauralizer also extends the stereo image additionally it compensates for inter channel cross talk of both speakers left loudspeaker on right ear and vice versa 10
- Enhancer the enhancer works like a dynamic pitch equalizer its effectiveness depends on the associated high frequencies and the intensity of the input signal 10
- Exciter an exciter works with psycho acoustic principles to add artificially generated overtones to the original signal thereby increasing its presence and loudness the subjective volume impression without any significant increase of the signal level 10
- Filter eq effects 10
- Filter eq filter eq 10
- Filter filters in general influence the frequency response of a signal a low pass filter allows low frequencies to pass and suppresses high frequencies while a high pass filter allows high frequencies to pass and suppresses low frequencies 10
- Graphic eq eight filter bands are arranged next to each other for this graphic equalizer in contrast to the parametric equalizer frequency and bandwidth are pre determined here 10
- Parametric eq the parametric equalizer is the most highly developed form of equalization you can control the three parameters which define the so called gauss equalizer curve bandwidth frequency and amplitude boosting or lowering 10
- Psycho acoustic effects 10
- Psycho acoustics psycho acoustics 10
- Stereo imager this effect is used to process stereo main signals the signal is first subdivided into middle and side signal ms matrix both parts can then be amplified when desired and placed on the stereo image 10
- Ultra bass this awesome combination of sub harmonic processor bass exciter and limiter adds a final touch to your music production 10
- Ultra wide this effect is suitable to pep up speaker systems with an especially broad stereo image 10
