Parameter Value Explanation
Mode
S, M, L, S+M, S+L,
M+L, S+M+L
Combination of playback heads to use
Select from three different heads with
different delay times.
S: Short
M: Middle
L: Long
Repeat Rate 0–127
Tape speed
Increasing this value will shorten the
spacing of the delayed sounds.
Intensity 0–127 Amount of delay repeats
Bass -15–+15 (dB)
Boost/cut for the lower range of the echo
sound
Treble -15–+15 (dB)
Boost/cut for the upper range of the echo
sound
Head S Pan L64–63R
Independent panning for the short,
middle, and long playback heads
Head M Pan L64–63R
Head L Pan L64–63R
Tape Distortion 0–5
Amount of tape-dependent distortion to
be added
This simulates the slight tonal changes
that can be detected by signal-analysis
equipment. Increasing this value will
increase the distortion.
W/F Rate 0–127
Speed of wow/flutter (complex variation
in pitch caused by tape wear and
rotational irregularity)
W/F Depth 0–127 Depth of wow/flutter
Echo Level 0–127 Volume of the echo sound
Direct Level 0–127 Volume of the original sound
Level 0–127 Output Level

Parameter Value Explanation
Pre Filter Type 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Selects the type of filter applied to the
sound before it passes through the Lo-Fi
effect.
1: Compressor off
2–6: Compressor on
LoFi Type 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
Degrades the sound quality. The sound
quality grows poorer as this value is
increased.
Post Filter Type OFF, LPF, HPF
Selects the type of filter applied to the
sound after it passes through the Lo-Fi
effect.
OFF: No filter is used.
LPF: Cuts the frequency range above the
Cutoff Freq
HPF: Cuts the frequency range below the
Cutoff Freq

Parameter Value Explanation
Coarse -24–+12 (semi)
Adjusts the pitch of the pitch shifted
sound in semitone steps.
Fine -100–+100 (cent)
Adjusts the pitch of the pitch shifted
sound in 2-cent steps.
Delay Time
(sync sw)
OFF, ON
If this is ON, the rate synchronizes with
the tempo of the rhythm.
& “Scene Tempo” (p. 22)
Delay Time (msec) 1–1300 (msec)
Adjusts the delay time from the direct
sound until the pitch shifted sound is
heard.
Delay Time (note)

& “Note” (p. 64)
Feedback -98–+98 (%)
Adjusts the proportion of the pitch
shifted sound that is fed back into the
effect.
Negative (-) settings will invert the phase.
Low Gain -15–+15 (dB) Gain of the low range
High Gain -15–+15 (dB) Gain of the high range
Balance D100:0W–D0:100W
Volume balance between the direct sound
(D) and the pitch shifted sound (W)
