10.3 VTW Lower Parameter (only for VTW
Organ Tone)
This page allows you to make additional detailed
settings for the Organ sound.
NOTE
The organ eects described below apply to all sections that use
VTW Organ sound.
Vibrato/Chorus
The vibrato eect cyclically modulates the pitch of organ sounds
(which is dierent from the Rotary eect).
Parameter Value Explanation
Vib/Cho Switch O, On
You can apply vibrato or chorus to the
organ sound.
Vib/Cho Type
V-1, V-2, V-3
C-1, C-2, C-3
The eect will intensify as the vibrato
type (V-1, V-2, V-3) or chorus type (C-1,
C-2, C-3) moves to a higher number
Vib/Cho Vintage ‘50, ‘60, ‘70
Tonewheel used in tonewheel organs of
1950, 1960, 1970.
Vib/Cho Level 0~127
Use this parameter to set the Vibrato or
chorus level.
Overdrive
This eect distorts the sound, giving it an “edge” and making it
suitable for hard rock and similar musical genres. See also the
“NOTE” under “Vibrato/Chorus”.
Parameter Value Explanation
Overdrive Switch O, On
Allows you to switch the overdrive eect
on or o.
Overdrive Drive 0~127
Species how strongly the sound is
distorted. A value toward 127 raise the
gain, adding distortion to the sound.
Overdrive Level 0~127
Species the level of the eect with
respect to the unprocessed organ signal.
Rotary
The eect in this section simulates the typical sound modulation
generated by a cabinet with rotating loudspeakers.
Most functions (start/stop, rotation speed selection, etc.), need to
be selected with an optional MIDI foot controller (e.g. FC-300) ( p.
107), Chin Switches ( p. 98) or Function Switches ( p. 106).
Parameter Value Explanation
Leakage Level 0~127
Species the level of the eect with
respect to the unprocessed organ signal.
Rotary Snd Level 0~127 You can adjust the level of rotary eect.
Rotary Snd
Reverb
0~127
Allows yo to specify the level of the
rotary signal that is transmitted to the
reverb eect.
Choose “0” if the sound should not be
processed by the organ reverb processor.
Rotary Snd
Chorus
0~127
Allows yo to specify the level of the
rotary signal that is transmitted to the
organ chorus eect.
Choose “0” if the sound should not
be processed by the organ chorus
processor.
Rotary Snd Delay 0~127
Allows yo to specify the level of the
rotary signal that is transmitted to the
organ delay eect. Choose “0” if the
sound should not be processed by the
organ delay processor.
