EFFECT SECTION
EFFECTS AND PARAMETERS
Note: For each of the Chorus types below, the
MIX and DRY parameters should be set
appropriately to avoid sudden jumps in
level when changing between effect
programs, or to avoid overloading
subsequent effects within an effect
program. (See Note in the Distortion
section, page 59.) Also, when MIX and DRY
are both set to 0, no sound is output.
CHORUS
The Chorus block features a wide range
of pitch change and modulation effects,
including Chorus, Flanger and Phaser.
Chorus uses modulation of the pitch and
volume to enhance the sound by gener-
ally making it richer and fatter.
EQ LOW FREQUENCY (LOW F)
Range: 40 Hz ~ 1.2 kHz
Determines the cutoff frequency of the low
frequency band (as adjusted in Low above).
EQ HIGH FREQUENCY (HIGH F)
Range: 500 Hz ~ 12.0 kHz
Determines the cutoff frequency of the high
frequency band (as adjusted in High above).
EQ OUTPUTRange: 0 ~ 200%
Determines the level of the processed sound.
Settings above 100% are used for boosting the
signal to an appropriate level to compensate for
equalizer adjustments that bring the overall
signal level down.
HINT
ENHANCING THE AMP SIMULATOR—
By judicious use of the Pitch Shift effect
(see the Amp Simulation settings in the
table on page 65), you can create a
richer, more natural amplifier simulation.
EQUALIZER / CHORUS
Note: This parameter is for adjusting the high
gain of the two-band EQ, which is
independent of the Amp Simulator effect.
MIX BALANCE (MIX)Range: 0 ~ 100%
Determines the balance between the dry (direct)
and processed signals. A setting of 0% outputs
only the dry signal, and a setting of 100%
outputs only the processed sound.
Sub parameters:
EQ INPUTRange: 0 ~ 100%
Determines the level of the input signal. Nor-
mally, this should be set to 100%; however, if
equalizer adjustments have been made that
bring the overall signal level up, lower values
can be used here to compensate to reduce the
volume to an appropriate level.
