By applying successive cuts to the sound, this eect turns a
conventional sound into a sound that appears to be played as a
backing phrase. This is especially eective when applied to sustain-
type sounds.

MEMO
This eect can be used for both TOTAL FX and MFX. The parameters
than you can set when using the eect with the MFX are limited to
those marked with a (*1).

Sync OFF, ON
If this is ON, the rate synchronizes with
the tempo of the rhythm.

Input Sync Sw OFF, ON
Specifies whether an input note will
cause the sequence to resume from the
first step of the sequence (ON) or not
(OFF)

Volume at which an input note will be
detected
Mode LEGATO, SLASH
Sets the manner in which the volume
changes as one step progresses to the
next.
LEGATO: The change in volume from
one step’s level to the next remains
unaltered.
If the level of a following step is the
same as the one preceding it, there is no
change in volume.
SLASH: The level is momentarily set to
0 before progressing to the level of the
next step.
This change in volume occurs even if the
level of the following step is the same as
the preceding step.
Shuffle 0–127
Timing of volume changes in levels for
even-numbered steps (step 2, step 4,
step 6...).
The higher the value, the later the beat
progresses.
Level 0–127 Output Level
34 34 RotaryRotary
This simulates a classic rotary speaker of the past. Since the operation
of the high-frequency and low-frequency rotors can be specied
independently, the distinctive modulation can be reproduced
realistically. This is most eective on organ patches.

Speed SLOW, FAST
Simultaneously switch the rotational
speed of the low frequency rotor and
high frequency rotor.
SLOW: Slows down the rotation to the
Slow Rate.
FAST: Speeds up the rotation to the
Fast Rate.
35 35 VK RotaryVK Rotary
This type provides modied response for the rotary speaker, with the
low end boosted further. This eect features the same specications as
the VK-7’s built-in rotary speaker.
