Roland RD-2000 Parameter Guide

36
Modulation FX Parameters
Parameter Value Explanation
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
Head L Pan
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/utter
(complex variation in pitch
caused by tape wear and
rotational irregularity)
W/F Depth 0–127 Depth of wow/utter
Echo Level # 0–127 Volume of the echo sound
Direct Level # 0–127 Volume of the original sound
Level 0–127 Output Level
4: SBF-325
This eect reproduces Roland’s SBF-325 analog anger. It provides
three types of anging eect (which adds a metallic resonance to
the original sound) and a chorus-type eect.

SBF-325
Parameter Value Explanation
Switch OFF, ON Turns the eect on/o.
Depth Knob
RATE, DEPTH,
FEEDBACK
Species the parameter
that is controlled by the
MODULATION FX [DEPTH]
knob.
Rate Knob
Species the parameter
that is controlled by the
MODULATION FX [RATE]
knob.
Feedback
Knob
Species the parameter
that is controlled by the
MODULATION FX [FEEDBACK]
knob.
Mode FL1, FL2, FL3, CHO
Types of anging eect
FL1: A typical mono anger
FL2: A stereo anger
that preserves the stereo
positioning of the original
sound
FL3: A cross-mix anger that
produces a more intense
eect
CHO: A chorus eect
Rate
(sync sw)
OFF, ON
If this is ON, the rate is
synchronized to the tempo of
the rhythm (owner’s manual:
p. 24).
Rate (Hz) # 0.02–5.00 [Hz]
Rate at which the anger
sound is modulated
Rate (note) # note (p. 60)
Parameter Value Explanation
Depth # 0–127
Depth to which the anger
sound is modulated
Manual 0–127
Center frequency at which
the anger eect is applied
Feedback # 0–127
Amount by which the
anging eect is boosted
* If Mode is CHO, this setting
is ignored.
CH-R Mode
Phase
NORM, INV
Phase of the right channel
modulation: Typically,
you will leave this at
Normal (NORM). If you
specify Inverted (INV),
the modulation (upward/
downward movement) of the
right channel is inverted.
CH-L Phase
Phase when mixing the
anging sound with the
original sound
NORM: normal phase
INV: inverse phase
CH-R Phase
Level 0–127 Output Level
5: UNI-V
This models a Uni-Vibe.
This eect is similar to a phaser, but produces a distinctive
modulation that cannot be obtained from a normal phaser.
UNI-V 2-Band EQ

Parameter Value Explanation
Switch OFF, ON Turns the eect on/o.
Depth Knob
RATE, DEPTH,
LEVEL
Species the parameter
that is controlled by the
MODULATION FX [DEPTH]
knob.
Rate Knob
Species the parameter
that is controlled by the
MODULATION FX [RATE]
knob.
Feedback
Knob
Species the parameter
that is controlled by the
MODULATION FX [FEEDBACK]
knob.
Rate # 0–100
Adjusts the rate of the UNI-V
eect.
Depth # 0–100
Adjusts the depth of the
UNI-V eect.
Low Gain -15–+15 [dB] Gain of the low range
High Gain -15–+15 [dB] Gain of the high range
Level # 0–127 Output Level
