RING MOD. (ring modulation)
This effect applies modulation to the sound in order to create
metallic resonances or unusual sound effects.
EDIT 1 _ Frequency 0...127
Specifies the frequency of the modulation that will be ap-
plied. The frequency will rise as the knob is rotated toward
the right.
EDIT 2 _ Balance 0...127
Specifies the balance of the effect sound and direct sound. As
the knob is rotated toward the right, the effect sound will
increase and the direct sound will decrease.
PITCH SHIFTER
This effect shifts the pitch.
EDIT 1 _ Pitch 0...127
Specifies the amount of pitch shift. When the knob is in the
center position, the output pitch will be the same as the input
pitch. As the knob is rotated toward the left the pitch will
become lower, and as the knob is rotated toward the right
the pitch will become higher. The available range of pitch
shift is +/-2 octaves, and will change as shown below.

EDIT 2 _ Dry level 0...127
This adds the original sound to the pitch-shifted sound. As
the knob is rotated toward the right, increasing amounts of
the original sound will be added to the effect sound.
COMPRESSOR
A compressor boosts low level sounds and reduces high level
sounds in order to minimize differences in volume and make
the sound more consistent.
EDIT 1 _ Sensitivity 0...127
Specifies the sensitivity of the compressor. When the knob is
in the far left position, there will be no effect. As the knob is
rotated toward the right, the effect will apply more strongly.
EDIT 2 _ Attack 0...127
Specifies the attack speed until the compressor begins to take
effect. The attack will become slower as the knob is rotated
toward the right.
DISTORTION
By boosting the volume appropriately, this effect causes the
sound to distort and produces a rich overtone structure.
EDIT 1 _ Gain 0...127
Specifies the degree of distortion. The sound will be distorted
more greatly as the knob is rotated toward the right.
EDIT 2 _ Level 0...127
Adjusts the output level. The output level will increase as
the knob is rotated toward the right.
DECIMATOR
This effect lowers the sampling frequency and the number of
sampling bits, producing a grainy sound characteristic of cheap
samplers.
EDIT 1 _ Sampling frequency 0...127
Rotating the knob toward the right produces a more lo-fi
sound, and rotating it toward the left produces a more hi-fi
sound.
EDIT 2 _ Number of sampling bits 0...127
Rotating the knob toward the right will produce a sound typi-
cal of fewer bits (lo-fi), and rotating it toward the left will
produce a sound typical of more bits (hi-fi).
If the input volume is extremely low , there may be no
output. If there is a high noise level during silent times,
noise may be generated.
ISOLATOR
This effect cuts the sound of a specific frequency. You can use
this to cut just the vocal range, or just the bass range, etc. Edit 2
(Mid Control) will take priority.
EDIT 1 _ Low / High Control 0...127
This controls the low or high range. Rotating the knob to-
ward the left will cut the high range, and rotating it toward
the right will cut the low range.
EDIT 2 _ Mid control 0...127
This controls the mid range. Rotating the knob toward the
left will cut the mid range, and rotating it toward the right
will retain only the mid range.
RESO. FILT. (resonance filter)
This is a low pass filter with resonance. It cuts the overtones
that are above the cutoff frequency, producing a milder tone.
EDIT 1 _ Cutoff Frequency 0...127
Adjusts the cutoff frequency of the low pass filter. The cutoff
frequency will rise as the knob is rotated toward the right.
EDIT 2 _ Resonance 0...127
This emphasizes the sound in the region of the cutoff fre-
quency, adding a distinctive character to the sound.
Depending on the cutoff frequency or input sound, high
resonance settings may cause the sound to distort.
MOD. DELAY (modulation delay)
This is a delay with an added chorus effect produced by using
an LFO to sweep the delay time. It produces an effect in which
the sound is spread to left and right. This delay is a tempo de-
lay in which the delay time is automatically synchronized to
the tempo of the pattern.
EDIT 1 _ Time 1/4...8
This sets the delay time. The available settings are multiples
of tempo-synchronized steps: 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, 1, 4/3,
1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 times.
If the MIDI Clock setting is Ext (external), you can synchro-
nize the delay time to the clock of an external device. (Refer
to p.53 “Synchronizing the ES-1mk
II
and an external MIDI
devices ( MIDI Clock)”)
EDIT 2 _ Depth 0...127
This adjusts the LFO depth and the feedback amount of the
delay. Turning the knob toward the right will deepen the LFO
and increase the amount of feedback.
