Chapter 4. Applying Effects to the Sound (Effects)
19. Step Flanger (Add Metallic Resonance to the Sound While Changing the Pitch in Steps)
This is a flanger that changes the pitch of the sound in steps. The frequency of pitch change can also be synchronized to the BPM.
* 1: 16 (16th note), 8T (8th note triplets), 16. (dotted 16th note), 8 (8th note), 4T (quarter note triplets), 8. (dotted 8th note), 4 (quarter note), 2T (half note
triplets), 4. (dotted quarter note), 2 (half note), 1T (whole note triplets), 2. (dotted half note), 1 (whole note)
* 2: 2M (2 measures), 3M (3 measures), 4M (4 measures), 8M (8 measures), 16M (16 measures)
* 3: 16 (16th note), 8T (8th note triplets), 16. (dotted 16th note), 8 (8th note), 4T (quarter note triplets), 8. (dotted 8th note), 4 (quarter note), 2T (half note
triplets), 4. (dotted quarter note), 2 (half note)
20. Short Delay (Add Echoes to the Sound)
This is a short delay which allows you to set the left and right delay times independently. You can also move the panning of the
delay sound in synchronization with the BPM.
Screen Parameter Explanation Value
PRE DELAY
(Pre Delay Time)
Specifies the time from the original sound until the flanger sound is
heard.
0.0–100
DEPTH Specifies the depth of modulation. 0–127
FEEDBACK
(Feedback Level)
Specifies the proportion of the flanger sound that is fed back into the
input.
0–98 (%) X
RATE Specifies the frequency of modulation.If a note value or measure is
selected as the value of this parameter, the Rate will synchronize
with the BPM of the pattern at intervals of the specified note value
or measure.
0.1–10.0 (Hz),
notes (*1),
measures (*2)
PHASE Adjusts the spread of the sound.As this value is increased, the left/
right spread of the sound will increase.
0–180
BALANCE
(Effect Balance)
Adjusts the volume balance between the original sound and the
flanger sound.With a setting of “0,” no flanger sound will be output.
0–100 (%)
OUTPUT LEVEL Specifies the output volume of the Step Flanger effect. 0–127
STEP RATE Specifies the rate at which the pitch will change.If a note value is se-
lected as the value of this parameter, the Step Rate will synchronize
with the BPM of the pattern at intervals of the specified note value.
0.05–10.0 (Hz),
notes (*3)
Y
Screen Parameter Explanation Value
TIME L
(Left Delay Time)
Specifies the time from the original sound until the left delay
sound is heard.
0.1–190 Y
TIME R
(Right Delay Time)
Specifies the time from the original sound until the right delay
sound is heard.
0.1–190 X
HF DAMP Determines the frequency at which the high frequency portions of
the delay sound will be cut. As this parameter is set to a lower fre-
quency, more of the high range will be cut, making the delay
sound more muted in tone. If you do not wish to cut the high fre-
quency range, select “BYPASS.”
200 (Hz)–8.00 (kHz),
BYPASS
FEEDBACK
(Feedback Level)
Adjusts the number of delay repeats. 0–98 (%)
LOW GAIN Adjusts the boost or cut of the low frequency range. -15–15
HIGH GAIN Adjusts the boost or cut of the high frequency range. -15–15
BALANCE
(Effect Balance)
Adjusts the volume balance between the original sound and the
delay sound. With a setting of “0,” no delay sound will be output.
0–100 (%)
AUTO PAN This setting causes the panning of the delay sound to move in syn-
chronization with the BPM.
0.1–10.0 (Hz), notes
(*1), measures (*2)
