Performance Functions and Effects
Multi-Effect List
OFF
MFX will not be applied.
ENHANCER
Controls the harmonic structure of the high-
frequency portion of the sound, adding
sparkle and improving the definition.
OVERDRIVE 1–4
Produces a natural-sounding distortion typ-
ical of a vacuum tube amplifier.
1: Small amp
2: Built-in type
3: Large double-stack amp
4: Large triple-stack amp
DISTORTION 1–4
Produces a more intense distortion than
Overdrive. Four types are available.
PHASER
Adds a phase-shifted sound to the original
sound, and modulates it over time to pro-
duce a twisting and turning sensation.
AUTO WAH
Cyclically moves a filter to produce a wah
effect (cyclic change in tone).
ROTARY
Simulates the sound of classic rotary speak-
ers from the past. You can switch the rota-
tional speed (slow/fast) by moving the
BENDER/MODULATION lever away from
yourself, realistically simulating the behav-
ior of an actual rotary speaker. This is partic-
ular effective when applied to organ sounds.
ST FLANGER
Produces a metallic whooshing effect remi-
niscent of a jet airplane taking off and land-
ing.
STEP FLANGER
The pitch of the flanger sound changes in
stepwise fashion.
COMPRESSOR
Suppresses high-level sounds and boosts
low-level sounds, making the overall vol-
ume more consistent.
LIMITER
Compresses sounds that are louder than a
specified level, thus preventing distortion.
HEXA CHORUS
Six-phase chorus that adds depth and spa-
ciousness to the sound (six chorus units with
different delay times are layered).
TREMOLO CHO
Chorus with an added tremolo effect.
ST CHORUS
Stereo chorus.
SPACE-D
A multiple chorus that applies two-phase
modulation in stereo. It does not produce an
impression of modulation, but generates a
transparent chorus effect.
ST DELAY
Repeats the input sound to create echoes.
MOD DELAY
Adds modulation to the delayed sound, cre-
ating a flanger-like effect.
3TAP DELAY
Three delayed sounds are panned to mid-
dle, left, and right.
4TAP DELAY
Four delayed sounds are heard.
TM CTRL DLY
This is a delay that lets you change the delay
time in real time by operating the modula-
tion lever.
REVERB
Adds reverberation to the original sound,
simulating a large space.
GATE REV NR
Reverb that cuts the reverberation during its
decay.
GATE REV RV
Gated reverb, where the reverberation grad-
ually increases.
GATE REV S1
Reverb sound that moves from right to left.
GATE REV S2
Reverb sound that moves from left to right.
2PITCH SHIFT
Shifts the pitch of the original sound. Two
pitch-shifted sounds can be layered onto the
original sound.
FB PITCH SFT
Pitch shifter in which the pitch-shifted
sound is fed back to the input, producing an
echo.
