MIDI Implementation
●0114: Guitar Amp Simulator
This is an effect that simulates the sound of a guitar amplifier.
Specifications of each Speaker Type
The speaker column indicates the diameter of each speaker unit (in inches) and the number
of units.
●0120: Phaser
This is a stereo phaser. A phase-shifted sound is added to the original sound and
modulated.
●0129: Multi Stage Phaser
Extremely high settings of the phase difference produce a deep phaser effect.

10 Pre Amp Bright 0 - 1 Off, On Turning this “On” produces a
sharper and brighter sound.
This parameter applies to the “JC-
120,” “Clean Twin,” and “BG Lead”
Pre Amp Types.
11 Speaker Sw 0 - 1 Off, On Determines whether the signal
passes through the speaker (ON), or
not (OFF).

13 Mic Setting 0 - 2 1, 2, 3 Adjusts the location of the mic that’s
capturing the sound of the speaker.
This can be adjusted in three steps,
from 1 to 3, with the mic becoming
more distant as the value increases.

No Parameter Value Description
1 Mode 0 - 2 4-Stage,
8-Stage,
12-Stage
Number of stages in the phaser
2 Manual #2 0 - 127 0-127 Adjusts the basic frequency from
which the sound will be modulated.
3 Rate Mode 0 - 1 Hz, note When this is set to “note,” the effect is
synchronized with the tempo.
4 Rate #1 1 - 127 0.05-10.00 Hz Frequency of modulation (Hz)
5 Rate 0 - 21 note Frequency of modulation (note)
6 Depth 0 - 127 0-127 Depth of modulation
7 Polarity 0 - 1 Inverse,
Synchro
Selects whether the left and right
phase of the modulation will be the
same or the opposite.
Inverse: The left and right phase will
be opposite. When using a mono
source, this spreads the sound.
Synchro: The left and right phase
will be the same. Select this when
inputting a stereo source.
8 Resonance 0 - 127 0-127 Amount of feedback
9 Cross Feedback 0 - 98 -98- +98 % Adjusts the proportion of the phaser
sound that is fed back into the effect.
Negative (-) settings will invert the
phase.
