50 DIGITAL RACK MIXER M32R User Manual
Dual Tube Stage / Stereo Tube Stage
Tube Stage / Overdrive is a versatile eect capable of emulating a variety of
modern and classic tube amps. Available in stereo and dual-mono versions,
use Tube Stage / Overdrive to dial in warm and fuzzy sounds from subtle to
fully-saturated.
DRIVE adjusts the amount of harmonics being driven by the eect. EVEN and
ODD adjusts the amount of even and odd harmonics. GAIN adjusts the output
gain of the eect. LO CUT sets the input frequency below which the source
signal will not pass through the eect. HI CUT sets the input frequency above
which the signal will not pass through the eect. BASS GAIN/FREQ adjusts a
low-shelving lter at the output of the eect. TREBLE GAIN/FREQ adjusts a
high-shelving lter at the eect’s output.
Dual Pitch Shifter / Stereo Pitch
Pitch sifting is often used in two dierent ways; one is to set the MIX control
lower and only use the CENT control to make a small oset in pitch between
the wet and dry tones. This results in a ‘voice doubling’ eect that thickens the
overall sound in a more subtle way. The extreme use of this eect is to turn
the MIX control fully-clockwise so that the full sound is aected. This way,
the signal can be shifted into other keys up to an octave above or below the
original key. When used on a voice, it results in a ‘chipmunk’ sound or a low,
‘Darth Vader’ eect.
When the SEMI and CENT push encoders are set to 12:00, the pitch is
not altered. Making adjustments by semitone will have a very pronounced
eect, whereas changes to the CENT control will be very minor. The DELAY
control creates a time dierence between the wet and dry sounds. The LO
CUT and HI CUT push encoders allows the aected signal to be band-limited.
The Dual-Pitch eect allows the left and right channels to be adjusted
independently, and allows gain compensation and panning of the two channels.
