Bit Reducers
Options: Decimator and Resampler.
Decimator
Decimator down-samples the incoming signal by removing bits from the digital signal. The difference
between decimation and resampling is that Decimator does not use any filtering to mask or correct
digital artifacts. The result is an effect ranging from mild to almost completely pure digital distortion,
depending on the setting and the source material.
Parameter Value Range Default Value Q-Link Knob Number
Dry/Wet 0–100 (dry–wet) 100 Q13
Decimate 0–100 0 Q9
Bit Reducer 4–32 32 Q5
Resampler
Resampler is similar to Decimator in that it removes bits from an incoming signal. The difference is that
Resampler applies a complex suite of filters and anti-aliasing to attempt to retain the original sound
quality. This is a method used by popular vintage samplers and sampling drum machines from the
1980s. Resampler can be used to achieve a "dirty" sound on drum loops, without the harshness of
distortion.
Parameter Value Range Default Value Q-Link Knob Number
Dry/Wet 0–100 (dry–wet) 100 Q13
Rate 0–100 0 Q9
Decimate 0–100 0 Q5
