Adding Effects
Overview Connections VS-700C Console VS-700R I/O Fantom VS Appendix
For each of the three multi-effects, the chorus, and the
reverb, you can specify whether it will operate according to
the effect settings of the performance, or according to the
effect settings of the patch or rhythm set assigned to the part
you specify.
MFX-1–3 Source (Multi-Effects 1–3 Source)
Selects the multi-effects parameter settings that will be used
by the performance. If you wish to use the performance
settings, select “PRF.” If you wish to use the settings of the
patch/rhythm set assigned to one of the parts, select the part
number.
Value:
PRF, P1–P16
Multi-Effects Control
If you wanted to change the volume of multi-effects
sounds, the delay time of Delay, and the like, using an
external MIDI device, you would need to send System
Exclusive messages-MIDI messages designed
exclusively for the Fantom VS. However, System
Exclusive messages tend to be complicated, and the
amount of data that needs to be transmitted can get
quite large.
For that reason, a number of the more typical of the
Fantom VS’s multi-effects parameters have been
designed so they accept the use of Control Change (or
other) MIDI messages for the purpose of making
changes in their values. For example, you can use the
Pitch Bend lever to change the amount of distortion, or
use the keyboard’s touch to change the delay time of
Delay. The parameters that can be changed are
predetermined for each type of multi-effect.
In the multi-effect setting screen, a “c” symbol will be
shown at the left of the parameter.
The function that allows you use MIDI messages to
make these changes in realtime to the multi-effects
parameters is called the
Multi-effects Control. Up to
four multi-effects controls can be used in a single patch/
rhythm set/performance.
When the multi-effects control is used, you can select
the amount of control (Sens parameter) applied, the
parameter selected (Destination parameter), and the
MIDI message used (Source parameter).
By using the Matrix Control instead of the Multi-
effects Control, you can also change the
parameters of some popular multi-effects in
realtime (p. 121).
Specifying the Effect Source
When Patch or Rhythm Set Settings Are Selected
When the patch or rhythm set’s multi-effects settings
are selected, those settings are shown in each of the
performance’s multi-effects setting screens, and the
settings can be then be changed as well. Changes to
patch or rhythm set multi-effects parameter settings are
lost when another patch or rhythm set is selected. To
keep the modified settings, save the settings.
