Chapter 4 Introduction to Effects and Parameters
SDD (Short Delay)
This is a delay with the maximum delay time of 400 ms.
This effect is useful for making the sound fatter.
Parameter Value
DlyTime 0 ms–400 ms, BPM –BPM
Feedback 0–100
Effect Level 0–120
DlyTime (Delay Time)
Adjusts the delay time.
* When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set
according to the value of the Master BPM (p. 54) specified for
each patch. This makes it easier to achieve effect sound settings
that match the tempo of the song (synchronizing the time to
twice or four times the time length of the BPM when the set
time is increased).
When setting to BPM, press PARAMETER [ ] to display
the Master BPM settings screen.
Feedback
Feedback refers to returning the delayed signal back into the
input of the delay. This parameter adjusts the volume that is
returned to the input. Higher settings will result in more
delay repeats.
Effect Level
Adjusts the volume of delay sound.
HU (Humanizer)
This can create human vowel-like sounds.
Parameter Value
Mode Picking, Auto, Random
Vowel 1 a, e, i, o, u Mode= Picking,
Auto
Vowel 2 a, e, i, o, u Mode= Picking,
Auto
Sens 0–100 Mode= Picking
Rate 0–100, BPM –BPM
Depth 0–100
Manual 0–100 Mode= Auto
Level 0–100
Mode
This sets the mode that switches the vowels.
Picking:
It changes from vowel 1 to vowel 2 along with the picking.
The time spent for the change is adjusted with the rate.
Auto:
By adjusting the rate and depth, two vowels (Vowel 1 and
Vowel 2) can be switched automatically.
Random:
Five vowels (a, e, i, o, u) are called out at random by
adjusting the rate and depth.
Vowel 1
This selects the first vowel.
fig.04-040d
Vowel 2
This selects the second vowel.
Sens (Sensitivity)
This adjusts the sensitivity of the humanizer. When it is set to
a lower value, no effect of the humanizer is obtained with
weaker picking, while stronger picking produces the effect.
When it is set to a higher value, the effect of the humanizer
can be obtained whether the picking is weak or strong.
Rate
This adjusts the cycle for changing the two vowels.
* When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set
according to the value of the Master BPM (p. 54) specified for
each patch. This makes it easier to achieve effect sound settings
that match the tempo of the song (synchronizing the cycle to
one-half or one-fourth of the BPM when the set cycle rate is
increased).
When setting to BPM, press PARAMETER [ ] to display
the Master BPM settings screen.
Depth
This adjusts the depth of the effect.
Manual
This determines the point where the two vowels are
switched. When it is set to “50,” vowel 1 and vowel 2 are
switched in the same length of time. When it is set to lower
than “50,” the time for vowel 1 is shorter. When it is set to
higher than “50,” the time for vowel 1 is longer.
Level
Adjusts the volume.
