MOD1, MOD2
For MOD1 and MOD2, you can choose one of the following effect
types. (If desired, you can select the same effect for both MOD1 and
MOD2.)
PHASER
By adding varied-phase portions to the direct sound, the phaser
effect gives a whooshing, swirling character to the sound.

MOD1 SW, MOD2 SW
OFF, ON Turns the MOD-1 (MOD-2) effect on/off.
MOD 1 TYPE, MOD 2 TYPE
see above Selects the effect to be used.
Parameter/
Range
Explanation
TYPE
Selects the number of stages that the phaser effect will use.
4STG This is a four-phase effect. A light phaser ef-
fect is obtained.
8STG This is an eight-phase effect. It is a popular
phaser effect.
12STG This is a twelve-phase effect. A deep phase
effect is obtained.
BI-PHS This is the phaser with two phase shift cir-
cuits connected in series.
RATE
0–100,
BPM –BPM
This sets the rate of the phaser effect.
When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according
to the value of the BPM (p. 142) specified for each patch. This makes
it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the
song.
* If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than the range of allowable
settings, it is then synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4 of that
time.
DEPTH
0–100
Determines the depth of the rotation effect.
MANUAL
0–100
Adjusts the center frequency of the rotation
effect.
RESO (Resonance)
0–100
Determines the amount of resonance (feed-
back).
Increasing the value will emphasize the ef-
fect, creating a more unusual sound.
STEP RATE
OFF, 0–100,
BPM –BPM
This sets the cycle of the step function that
changes the rotation. When it is set to a high-
er value, the change will be finer. Set this to
Off when not using the Step function.
When set to BPM, the value of each parameter will be set according
to the value of the BPM (p. 142) specified for each patch. This makes
it easier to achieve effect sound settings that match the tempo of the
song.
* If, due to the tempo, the time is longer than the range of allowable
settings, it is then synchronized to a period either 1/2 or 1/4 of that
time.
EFFECT LEVEL
0–100
Adjusts the volume of the phaser.
DIRECT LEVEL
0–100
Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.
