Setting the Tremolo Effect
Settings for the Tremolo effect are made from the TREMOLO & SYMPH. (Symphonic) page.
1 TREMOLO
Determines the type of Tremolo effect. These types have been programmed to match the
corresponding type of organ sounds: Jazz, Rock, Theatre (THEAT.), and Classical (CLASS.).
2 TREMOLO SPEED
Determines the speed of the Tremolo (rapid rotation) effect. Range: 0 – 100
3 TREMOLO CHORUS
Determines the effect applied when Tremolo is switched off: a slow chorus effect (SLOW) or
STOP. Use the SLOW setting when you want to have a constant rotating speaker sound.
Using the Tremolo Effect
Once the Tremolo effect has been turned on (see “Enabling the Tremolo Effect” above) and set,
you can control the effect in real time from the panel or from the left footswitch.
Panel Control
Simply press the TREMOLO button to turn the Tremolo effect on and off while you’re
playing.
This button functions just like the fast/slow switch on an actual rotating speaker cabinet.
When Tremolo is on, the rotation effect is fast; when off (Chorus), it is slow. The speed
change is gradual, effectively simulating the slowing down and speeding up of a rotating
speaker.
Footswitch Control
You can also use one of the footswitches to control the Tremolo effect in the same way, if the
footswitch has been properly assigned. (See the section Footswitch Assign on page 156 for
details.)
