EFFECTS AND PARAMETERS
REVERB/DELAY
Note: The Tap Delay function can be used in the
Manual, Memory or Memory Edit modes, if the
MEMORY ON/OFF function is selected in the AS-
SIGNABLE Block (the MEMORY LED flashes).
Note: If you tap the Pedal Switch a little beyond the
maximum time (up to about one second), the
delay time will be set to the maximum value
(896 ms). However, taps made much longer
than one second will not set the delay time.
Note: The time set by Tap Delay is not saved as part
of the program data; only the delay time set by
the panel knob can be saved.
HINT
QUANTIZE FUNCTION ON TAP DELAY—The
GW50 has a convenient “quantize” function
that works with the backing rhythm patterns
to keep your tap delay settings in time with
the rhythm. This function measures the
delay time that you tap with the Pedal
Switch, and adjusts the time (if necessary)
to synchronize the delay with the tempo of
the rhythm pattern that is playing.
FEEDBACK (FB)Range: 0 ~ 100%
Determines the number of the delayed repeats.
Values close to 0 repeat the delay once or
twice, while for higher values the repeats carry
on almost indefinitely.
EFFECT MIX (MIX)Range: 0 ~ 100%
Determines the level of the processed signals. A
setting of 0% results in no effect output. Use
this control with the Dry Level (DRY) param-
eter below to determine the balance between the
effect and dry sound.
Sub parameters:
DOUBLING TIME (DB TIM)
Range: 30 ~ 50 ms
Determines the time between delayed repeats of
the short (or doubling) delay.
DOUBLING BALANCE (DB BAL)
Range: 0 ~ 100%
Determines the level of the short (or doubling)
delay. A setting of 0% outputs only the main
delay, while a setting of 100% outputs only the
short (or doubling) delay.
DRY LEVEL (DRY)Range: 0 ~ 100%
Determines the level of the dry sound. A setting
of 0% results in no direct sound output. Use
this control with the Effect Mix (MIX) param-
eter above below to determine the balance
between the effect and dry sound.
Delay + Reverb (D+R)
This effect combines both the Delay and Reverb
effects above in one program. All parameters in
the two effects are available in this program. (For
parameter descriptions, refer to the Delay and
Reverb effects above.)
DELAY TIME (DL TIM)
Range: 4 ~ 512 ms
DELAY EFFECT MIX (DL MIX)
Range: 0 ~ 100%
REVERB EFFECT MIX (RV MIX)
Range: 0 ~ 100%
Sub parameters:
DELAY FEEDBACK (DL FB)
Range: 0 ~ 100%
DOUBLING TIME (DB TIM)
Range: 30 ~ 50 ms
DOUBLING BALANCE (DB BAL)
Range: 0 ~ 100%
DELAY DRY LEVEL (DL DRY)
Range: 0 ~ 100%
