Effect Types and Parameters
ZOOM G2

EQ
EQ (Equalizer) module
Allows adjusting the three main bands (BASS, MIDDLE, TREBLE) of the six-band equalizer.
BASS
±12 160Hz
MIDDLE
±12 800Hz
TREBLE
±12 3.2kHz
Adjusts the low frequency range level. Adjusts the mid frequency range level. Adjusts the high frequency range level.
EXTRA EQ/CABI&MIC
EXTRA EQ/CABINET & MIC module
This module allows adjusting the three remaining bands of the six-band equalizer. In
addition, the module contains a cabinet simulator that produces sound suitable for direct
recording on a MTR or for reproduction via headphones or a studio monitor.
Et
EXTRA EQ
Adjusts the three remaining bands of the six-band equalizer. The HARMONICS control allows adjustment of
the harmonics frequency range level.
LO MID
±12 400Hz
PRESENCE
±12 6.4kHz
HARMONICS
±12 12kHz
Adjusts the mid-low frequency range
level.
Adjusts the extremely high frequency
range level.
Adjusts the harmonics frequency range
level.
Cb
CABINET & MIC
This effect type simulates amplifier cabinet sound and mic directional characteristics, suitable for direct
recording on a multi-track recorder. The cabinet characteristics are automatically set either to Combo (12" x
1, 12" x 2) or to Stack (12" x 4), depending on the selected drive type. The on/off condition of this effect in
turn automatically switches the modeling algorithm of the DRIVE module (
→ p. 21).
MIC TYPE
dy, Co
MIC POSITION
0 – 2
Selects the mic type. "dy" simulates the
frequency response of a dynamic mic
and "Co" simulates the frequency
response of a condenser mic.
Lets you select different microphone
characteristics according to sound
pickup position. The following settings
are available.
0: Mic pointed at speaker center
1: Mic pointed halfway between speaker
edge and center
2: Mic pointed at speaker edge
MOD/SFX
MOD/SFX(Modulation/SFX) module
Comprises modulation and delay effects such as chorus, pitch shifter, delay, and echo.
CH
CHORUS
This effect mixes a variable pitch-shifted component to the original signal, resulting in full-bodied resonating sound.

RATE
1 – 50
MIX
0 – 98, 1.0
Adjusts the modulation depth.
Adjusts the modulation rate.
Adjusts the level of the effect sound
mixed to the original sound.
SC
STEREO CHORUS
This is a stereo chorus with clear sound.
DEPTH
0 – 98, 1.0
RATE
1 – 50
MIX
0 – 98, 1.0
Adjusts the modulation depth. Adjusts the modulation rate.
Adjusts the level of the effect
sound mixed to the original
sound.

PITCH SHIFTER
This effect shifts the pitch of the original sound up or down.
SHIFT
-12 – -1, dt,
1 – 12, 24
TONE
0 – 10
MIX
0 – 98, 1.0
Adjusts the pitch shift amount in
semitones. Selecting "dt" gives a
detuning effect.
Adjusts the sound quality.
Adjusts the level of the effect
sound mixed to the original sound.
PP
PEDAL PITCH
This effect allows using a pedal to shift the pitch in real time.

dL
DELAY
This is a delay with a maximum setting of 2000 ms.
TIME
1 – 99,
1.0 – 2.0
FEEDBACK
0 – 98, 1.0
MIX
0 – 98, 1.0
Adjusts the delay time. In the
range from 10 – 990 ms, the
adjustment is made in 10-ms
steps (1 – 99). For 1 second and
above, the adjustment is made in
100-ms steps (1.0 – 2.0).
Adjusts the feedback amount.
Adjusts the level of the effect
sound mixed to the original
sound.
