Insert Effect Parameters

54 ENSONIQ ASR-X Pro UserÕs Guide

Dly2 Damping 100Hz to 21.2kHz Controls the cutoff of a low pass filter on the feedback

signal, which adjusts the amount of damping to the

feedback signals. The lower the number, the more the

signals are damped.

This insert effect adds the famous, classic rotating speaker effect to any sound. A tunable distortion is

added to the input signal and is also passed through the rotors.

Dist LPF Fc 10Hz to 20.0kHz Filters out high frequencies prior to the distortion.

Dist Offset -99% to +99% Adjusts the balance of even-to-odd-generated

harmonics.

Dist Gain Off, -49.5dB to +48dB Controls the gain going into the distortion effect. This

will boost the signal level up to 48 dB. For more

distortion, use a high input level gain and turn the

distortion volume down to keep the volume under

control. For less distortion, use a low gain input level

and a higher output volume.

Dist Curve Soft, Medium 1, Medium 2,

Hard, Buzz

Selects the type of clipping produced by the distortion.

The curves range from tube-like distortion (Soft) to

nasty distortion (Buzz).

Dist Volume Off, -99dB to 0.0dB Controls the volume of the distortion effect. Generally, if

the distortion gain is set high, set this parameter lower.

Post VCF Fc 10Hz to 7.10kHz Determines the distortion filter cut off frequency. Higher

values have a brighter sound. This parameter can be

modulated by any continuous MIDI controller for a

wah-wah pedal effect.

Post VCF Q 1.0 to 40.0 Determines the level and width of the resonant peak at

the filter cutoff point. While the Fc (filter cutoff)

parameter determines where (at what frequency) this

peak will occur, the Q setting controls the sharpness of

the peak.

Dist Dry Lev Off, -49.5dB to 0.0dB Controls the amount of dry signal to be mixed with the

distorted signal.

EQ Input Off, -49.5dB to +24dB Adjusts the input level trim to the EQs to eliminate the

possibility of clipping boosted signals.

Mid 1 Fc 10Hz to 20.0kHz Sets the center of the mid frequency parametric.

Mid 1 Q 1.0 to 40.0 This parameter is a bandwidth control that determines

the width of the resonant peak at the center frequency

band. This parameter is equal to the cutoff frequency

divided by the bandwidth. By raising the value, you can

produce a narrower bandwidth.

Mid 1 Gain Off, -49.5dB to +24dB Sets the amount of boost or cut applied to this mid

frequency parametric.

Speed Slow or Fast Selects one of the two available rotor speeds, whose

rates are determined by the Hi Slow, Hi Fast, Lo Slow,

and Lo Fast parameters. The behavior of this switch

accurately reflects an actual rotary speaker, taking time

to speed up or slow down, based on the values of the

inertia parameters. By assigning a modulation controller

to this parameter, you can change between the slow and

fast speeds in real time.

Spread Stereo or Mono Selects either a stereo or mono rotary speaker effect.

Crossover Fc 10Hz to 20.0kHz Sets the crossover frequency between the low and high

rotors.

Lo Hi Bal Full <Lo to Full >Hi Controls the volume balance between the low and the

high rotor.

Rotor Mix Full Dry to Full Wet Controls the balance between the leakage (dry) signal

and the rotor (wet) signal. We recommend settings near

70.0% wet.
