57: GATE
The Gate effect cuts the reverbs delay according to the
volume of the sound input to the effects device. Use this in
situations such as when you want to force a decrease in the
decay sound.

Key
Selects the input of the sound that acts as the trigger closing
the gate.
When set to SOURCE, the gate is closed by the sound input
to the Multi-effects.
Thre (Key Threshold)
Sets the volume level at which the gate begins to close.
Monitor (Key Monitor)
Determines whether the sound used as the gate trigger is
output (ON) or not (OFF).
Mode
GATE: Gate Reverb. When the source volume falls below a
certain level, the gate closes, giving the effect of the reverb
sound being cut with a gate reverb.
DUCK: Ducking Reverb. When the source volume gets high
enough, the gate closes, which gives a ducking reverb-type
effect. Stop the reverb sound only when input loud sound so
that prevent the play sound become unclear.
Atk (Attack Time)
Sets the time it takes the gate fully opens after being
triggered.
Hold (Hold Time)
Sets the time it takes the gate starts closing after the instant
the direct sound goes under the threshold level.
Rel (Release Time)
Sets the time it takes the gate fully closes after passes by the
hold time.
Balance (Effect Balance) #
Sets the volume balance between the direct sound and the
effect sound.
With a setting of D100:0W only the direct sound will be
output, and with a setting of D0:100W only the effect sound
will be output.
Level (Output Level)
Adjust the output level.
58: 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.

Beat 1-1–4-4
For a single measure containing four quarter notes, this sets
the level of each sixteenth-note when the measure is divided
into sixteenth notes. When set to 0, no sound is output.
Rate #
Determines the cycle for one measure.
Rate parameter can be set as a note-value of a specified
tempo. In this case, specify the value of the desired note.
Attack
Sets the speed at which the volume changes between beats.
The higher the value, the faster the volume changes.
Reset #
Selects the input of the sound that acts as the trigger resetting
the one-measure pattern.
When set to OFF, the pattern is not reset, even if the input is
present.
When set to SRC, the pattern is reset by the sound input to
the multi-effects.
Thre (Reset Threshold)
Sets the volume level at which the reset begins.
Mon (Reset Monitor Switch)
Determines whether the sound used as the reset trigger is
output (ON) or not (OFF). This parameter is disabled when
Reset parameter is set to OFF or SRC.

(p. 169).
