The following steps are simplified

instructions for choosing effects, editing

effects, and saving the saving the program

containing the effects. For more detailed

descriptions, see page 13, 14, and 16 of the

“Operating Instructions.”

Choosing effects

1Press Fx TYPE (SEARCH).

The “Fx Type: Type” screen appears and

the FxA number starts blinking (Ill. A).

2Turn the rotary encoder to select the

effect (01~45) for Fx A.

3Press EDIT PARAMETER /twice

to move the cursor to FxB.

Note: this is not possible if you select a

4ch effect (01~09) in the previous step.

4Turn the rotary encoder to select an

effect (10~45) for Fx B.

5Press EXIT to return to play mode.

Changing effect parameters

1Press EDIT PARAMETER ?or /

repeatedly to display the parameter

you want to adjust.

(See Ill. B).

2Turn the rotary encoder to change

the parameter.

3Repeat steps 1 and 2 to change all

necessary parameters.

4Press EXIT to return to play mode.

FxA:11/ FxB:12

Saving a program

1Press SAVE to activate the save

mode.

The save screen appears and the

program number starts blinking (Ill. C).

2Turn the rotary encoder to select the

number (201~400) where you want

to save the program.

3Press EDIT PARAMETER /to

move the cursor to the program

name.

The first character of the current

program name starts blinking.

4Use the rotary encoder and EDIT

PARAMETER ?/ /to enter up to

12 characters.

5Press SAVE again (or ENTER (TAP))

to execute the save operation.

“Writing...” appears momentarily, the

program is saved, and the unit switches

back to the play mode.

Parameters

– FxA(B) On/Off On, Off Turns the effect on or off.

1 Rev Time 0.3 ~ 50 s Determines how long the reverberation will last.

2 PreDelay 0 ~ 300 ms Sets the length of time between the input of the original sound and the output of the

reverberation. Normally, set the predelay relative to the reverb length (i.e., Set a long

Rev Time, and a long PreDelay to create a greater sense of space).

3 Size 0.6 ~ 1.4 Adjusts the size of the soundstage without changing the character (reverb time and

sound quality) of the effect.

4 Spread 0.6 ~ 1.4 Adjusts the expansiveness of the reverberation. Normally, set to the same value as

Size.

5 Hi Damp 0 ~ 100 Sets the ratio of high frequency reverb time in relation to the overall reverberation.

Smaller values increase the rate of attenuation in the high frequencies.

6 Direct Level 0 ~ 100 Determines the level of the direct sound.

7 Effect Level 0 ~ 100 Determines the level of the effect sound.

This is a reverb for stereo sources. It

has a higher density than the other

reverbs to produce smooth

reverberation.

We especially recommend this plate

reverb for percussion an vocals.

It has become the standard for drums

(and drum machines).

– FxA(B) On/Off On, Off Turns the effect on or off.

1 Rev Time 0.3 ~ 50 s Determines how long the reverberation will last.

2 PreDelay 0 ~ 400 ms Sets the length of time between the input of the original sound and the output of the

reverberation. Normally, set the predelay relative to the reverb length (i.e., Set a long

Rev Time, and a long PreDelay to create a greater sense of space).

3 Size 0.6 ~ 1.4 Adjusts the size of the soundstage without changing the character (reverb time and

5 Hi Damp 0 ~ 100 Sets the ratio of high frequency reverb time in relation to the overall reverberation.

Smaller values increase the rate of attenuation in the high frequencies.

6 Direct Level 0 ~ 100 Determines the level of the direct sound.

7 Effect Level 0 ~ 100 Determines the level of the effect sound.

This is a reverb for stereo sources that

lets you maintain localization of the

original sound. It’s ideal for

reproducing the feel of relatively large

spaces.

original sound. It’s ideal for

reproducing the feel of relatively small

spaces like a studio or room.

– FxA(B) On/Off On, Off Turns the effect on or off.

1 Pan 1 L180 ~ R180 Rotates the sound from Ch 1 up to 180° left or right (“0” is front and center).

2 Pan 2 L180 ~ R180 Rotates the sound from Ch 2 up to 180° left or right (“0” is front and center).

3 Pan 3 L180 ~ R180 Rotates the sound from Ch 3 up to 180° left or right (“0” is front and center).

4 Pan 4 L180 ~ R180 Rotates the sound from Ch 4 up to 180° left or right (“0” is front and center).

This effect lets you adjust the position

of the original sound (of each of the 4

channels) within the sound stage. It

lets you adjust left to right and front to

back positioning simultaneously using

only 2 (front) speakers.

Note

The relationship between your listening

position and the speakers should be as

close as possible to that shown below. The

output from Ch 3 and Ch 4 is the exact

same signal as Ch 1 and Ch 2.

Parameters

– FxA(B) On/Off On, Off Turns the effect on or off.

1 Rate 0 ~ 100 Sets the rate (frequency or modulation speed) of the low frequency oscillator (LFO).

The modulation cycles become faster as you increase this value.

2 Depth 0 ~ 100 Sets the depth of the low frequency oscillator (LFO). The sense of modulation

becomes stronger as you increase this value. There is no chorus effect at 0%.

3 PreDelay 0 ~ 1200 ms Determines how long it will to activate the chorus effect.

4 Direct Level 0 ~ 100 Determines the level of the direct sound.

5 Effect Level 0 ~ 100 Determines the level of the effect sound.

This effect incorporates 5 chorus units

for each channel to allow massive

expansion, even from monaural

sources.

Parameters

– FxA(B) On/Off On, Off Turns the effect on or off.

1 Rate 0 ~ 100 Sets the rate (frequency or modulation speed) of the low frequency oscillator (LFO).

The modulation cycles become faster as you increase this value.

2 Depth 0 ~ 100 Sets the depth of the low frequency oscillator (LFO). The sense of modulation

becomes stronger as you increase this value. There is no chorus effect at 0%.

3 PreDelay 0 ~ 1200 ms Determines how long it will to activate the ensemble effect.

4 Mode 1, 2 Sets the type of expansion effect (see above).

5 Direct Level 0 ~ 100 Determines the level of the direct sound.

6 Effect Level 0 ~ 100 Determines the level of the effect sound.

Ensemble lets you produce a more

profound effect than chorus. Think of

it as a massive conglomeration of

chorus units. The Mode parameter

determines the type of effect.

Mode 1: Expands monaural or stereo

sources. (Maintains a sense of

localization when used with

stereo sources.)

Mode 2: Expands monaural or stereo

sources. (Eliminates the sense

of localization when used

with stereo sources.)

We especially recommend this effect

with continual sounds like strings or

synthesizer pads. You might want to try

setting Direct Level to “0” and

eliminating the source sound.
