Balance—Sets the volume balance between the direct and the
effect sound. With a setting of D100:0W only the direct sound
will be output and with a setting of D0:100W the effect sound
will be output.
Level (0~127)—Output level.
52. Step Ring
This is a ring modulator that uses a 16-step sequence to vary
the frequency at which modulation is applied.
Step 1~16 (0~127)—Frequency of ring modulation at each step.
Rate [sync] (Hz, Note)—Use this parameter to specify whether
(“Note”) or not (“Hz”) the rate should be synchronized to the
Arranger or Recorder tempo. Depending on your choice, the
setting range of the following parameter refers to a speed (Hz)
or a note value.
Rate [Hz] (0.05~10.00Hz)—Rate at which the 16-step sequence
will cycle.
Rate [note] (musical notes)—Rate parameters can be set as a
note-value of a tempo if you set the “Sync” parameter above to
“Note”. Specify the value of the desired note.
Attack (0~127)—Speed at which the modulation frequency
changes between steps.
EQ Low Gain (–15dB~0~15dB)—Gain of the low frequency
range.
EQ High Gain (–15dB~0~15dB)—Gain of the high frequency
range.
Balance (D100:0W, D50:50W, D0:100W)—Volume balance
between the direct (D) and the effect sound (W).
Level (0~127)—Output level.
53. Tremolo
Cyclically modulates the volume to add tremolo effect to the
sound.
Modulation Wave (TRI, SQR, SIN, SAW1, SAW2)—Modulation
Wave. TRI: triangle wave, SQR: square wave, SIN: sine wave,
SAW1/2: sawtooth wave.
Rate [sync] (Hz, Note)—Use this parameter to specify whether
(“Note”) or not (“Hz”) the modulation rate should be synchro-
nized to the Arranger or Recorder tempo. Depending on your
choice, the setting range of the following parameter refers to a
speed (Hz) or a note value.
Rate [Hz] (0.05~10.00Hz)—Frequency, i.e. modulation speed.
Rate [note] (musical notes)—Rate parameters can be set as a
note-value of a tempo if you set the “Sync” parameter above to
“Note”. Specify the value of the desired note.
Depth (0~127)—Depth to which the effect is applied.
EQ Low Gain (–15dB~0~15dB)—Gain of the low frequency
range.
EQ High Gain (–15dB~0~15dB)—Gain of the high frequency
range.
Level (0~127)—Output level.
54. Auto Pan
Cyclically modulates the stereo location of the sound.
Modulation Wave (TRI, SQR, SIN, SAW1, SAW2)—Modulation
Wave. TRI: triangle wave, SQR: square wave, SIN: sine wave,
SAW1/2: sawtooth wave.
Rate [sync] (Hz, Note)—Use this parameter to specify whether
(“Note”) or not (“Hz”) the modulation rate should be synchro-
nized to the Arranger or Recorder tempo. Depending on your
choice, the setting range of the following parameter refers to a
speed (Hz) or a note value.
Rate [Hz] (0.05~10.00Hz)—Frequency, i.e. modulation speed.
Rate [note] (musical notes)—Rate parameters can be set as a
note-value of a tempo if you set the “Sync” parameter above to
“Note”. Specify the value of the desired note.
Depth (0~127)—Depth to which the effect is applied.
EQ Low Gain (–15dB~0~15dB)—Gain of the low frequency
range.
EQ High Gain (–15dB~0~15dB)—Gain of the high frequency
range.
Level (0~127)—Output level.
55. Step Pan
This uses a 16-step sequence to vary the panning of the sound.
Step 1~16 (L64~0~63R)—Pan at each step.
Rate [sync] (Hz, Note)—Use this parameter to specify whether
(“Note”) or not (“Hz”) the rate should be synchronized to the
Arranger or Recorder tempo. Depending on your choice, the
setting range of the following parameter refers to a speed (Hz)
or a note value.
Rate [Hz] (0.05~10.00Hz)—Rate at which the 16-step sequence
will cycle.
Rate [note] (musical notes)—Rate parameters can be set as a
note-value of a tempo if you set the “Sync” parameter above to
“Note”. Specify the value of the desired note.
Attack (0~127)—Speed at which the pan changes between steps.
Input Sync Sw (Off, On)—Specifies whether an input note will
cause the sequence to resume from the first step of the
sequence (ON) or not (OFF).
Input Sync Threshold (0~127)—Volume at which an input note
will be detected.
Level (0~127)—Output level.
56. Slicer
By applying successive cuts to the sound, this effect turns a
conventional sound into a sound that appears to be played as
a backing phrase. This is especially effective when applied to
sustain-type sounds.
Step 1~16 (0~127)—Level at each step.
Rate [sync] (Hz, Note)—Use this parameter to specify whether
(“Note”) or not (“Hz”) the rate should be synchronized to the
Arranger or Recorder tempo. Depending on your choice, the
setting range of the following parameter refers to a speed (Hz)
or a note value.
Rate [Hz] (0.05~10.00Hz)—Rate at which the 16-step sequence
will cycle.
Rate [note] (musical notes)—Rate parameters can be set as a
note-value of a tempo if you set the “Sync” parameter above to
“Note”. Specify the value of the desired note.
Attack (0~127)—Speed at which the level changes between
steps.
Input Sync Sw (Off, On)—Specifies whether an input note will
cause the sequence to resume from the first step of the
sequence (ON) or not (OFF).
Input Sync Threshold (0~127)—Volume at which an input note
will be detected.
Mode (Legato, Slash)—Sets the manner in which the volume
changes as one step progresses to the next.
LEGATO: The change in volume from one step’s level to the next
remains unaltered. If the level of a following step is the same as
the one preceding it, there is no change in volume.
SLASH: The level is momentarily set to 0 before progressing to
the level of the next step. This change in volume occurs even if
the level of the following step is the same as the preceding step.
Shuffle (0~127)—Timing of volume changes in levels for even-
numbered steps (step 2, step 4, step 6…). The higher the value,
the later the beat progresses.
Level (0~127)—Output level.
57. VK Rotary
This type provides modified response for the rotary speaker,
with the low end boosted further.
This effect features the same specifications as the VK-7’s built-in
rotary speaker.
Speed (Slow, Fast)—Rotational speed of the rotating speaker.
Brake (Off, On)—Switches the rotation of the rotary speaker.
When this is turned on, the rotation will gradually stop. When it
is turned off, the rotation will gradually resume.
Woofer Slow Speed (0.05~10.0Hz)—Low-speed rotation speed
of the woofer.
Woofer Fast Speed (0.05~10.0Hz)—High-speed rotation speed
of the woofer.
Woofer Trans Up (0~127)—Adjusts the rate at which the woofer
rotation speeds up when the rotation is switched from Slow to
Fast.
