Insert Effect Parameter Functions
Section 3
When “DIGITAL” is selected
Pre Filter OFF, ON
This filter decreases digital distortion. When turned off, you can
create an intense lo-fi sound incorporating digital distortion.
Smpl Rate OFF, 1/2–1/32
Modify the sample rate.
Bit OFF, 15–1
Modify the number of data bits. If this is turned off, the number of
data bits will be unchanged. If an extremely low number of bits is
selected, loud noise may appear even when there is no sound,
depending on the input source. In such cases, raise the threshold of
the noise suppressor.
Post Fltr OFF, ON
This filter decreases the digital distortion produced by lo-fi.
By turning this off, you can create an extremely lo-fi sound.
Fx Level 0–100
Adjust the volume of the lo-fi sound.
Dir Level 0–100
Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.
Modify Fil
This is a filter featuring a wide range of possible settings (modifiable
filter). Select different types to get a variety of different filter effects.
OFF:
The modify filter will not be used.
LPF:
The effect will function as a low pass filter.
BPF:
The effect will function as a band pass filter.
HPF:
The effect will function as a high pass filter.
Cutoff F 0–100
Adjust the cutoff frequency.
Resonance 0–100
Adjust the resonance.
Gain 0–24 dB
Adjust the volume level of the sound that has passed through the
modify filter.
Noise Suppressor
This effect reduces the noise and hum. Since it suppresses the noise
in synchronization with the envelope of the sound (the way in which
the sound decays over time), it has very little effect on the sound,
and does not harm the natural character of the sound.
On/Off OFF, ON
This parameter turns the noise suppressor effect on/off.
Threshold 0–100
Adjust this parameter as appropriate for the volume of the noise. If
the noise level is high, a higher setting is appropriate. If the noise
level is low, a lower setting is appropriate. Adjust this value until the
decay of the sound is as natural as possible.
* High settings for the Threshold parameter may result in there being no
sound when you play with your instruments volume turned down.
Release 0–100
Adjusts the time from when the noise suppressor begins to function
until volume reaches “0.”
Octave
This adds a note one octave lower, creating a richer sound.
On/Off OFF, ON
This parameter turns the octave effect on/off.
Oct Level 0–100
This adjusts the volume of the sound one octave below.
Dir Level 0–100
Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.
Phaser
By adding varied-phase portions to the direct sound, the phaser
effect gives a whooshing, swirling character to the sound.
* This effect can be used when the MODULATION “Type” parameter
is set to “PHASER.”
On/Off OFF, ON
This parameter turns the phaser effect on/off.
Rate 0–100
This sets the rate of the Phaser effect.
Depth 0–100
Determines the depth of the Phaser effect.
Manual 0–100
Adjusts the center frequency of the phaser effect.
Resonance 0–100
Determines the amount of resonance (feedback). Increasing the value
will emphasize the effect, creating a more unusual sound.
