Modulation FX Parameters
Parameter Value Explanation
Drive # 0–127
Degree of distortion
Also changes the volume.
Vowel1 A, E, I, O, U
Selects the vowel.
Vowel2 A, E, I, O, U
Rate
(sync sw)
OFF, ON
If this is ON, the modulation
is synchronized to the tempo
of the rhythm (owner’s
manual: p. 24).
Rate (Hz) # /
Rate (note) #
0.05–10.00 [Hz]
Frequency at which the two
vowels switch
note (p. 60)
Depth # 0–127 Eect depth
Input Sync
Sw
OFF, ON
LFO reset on/o
Determines whether the LFO
for switching the vowels is
reset by the input signal (ON)
or not (OFF).
Input Sync
Threshold
0–127
Volume level at which reset
is applied
Manual # 0–100
Point at which Vowel 1/2
switch
49 or less: Vowel 1 will have
a longer duration.
50: Vowel 1 and 2 will be of
equal duration.
51 or more: Vowel 2 will
have a longer duration.
Low Gain -15–+15 [dB]
Gain of the low frequency
range
High Gain -15–+15 [dB]
Gain of the high frequency
range
Pan # L64–63R Stereo location of the output
Level 0–127 Output level
18: PHASER 1
A phase-shifted sound is added to the original sound and
modulated.

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.

MODULATION FX [FEEDBACK]
knob.
Parameter Value Explanation
Mode
4-STAGE,
8-STAGE,
12-STAGE
Number of stages in the
phaser
Manual # 0–127
Adjusts the basic frequency
from which the sound will be
modulated.
Rate
(sync sw)
OFF, ON
If this is ON, the modulation
is synchronized to the tempo
of the rhythm (owner’s
manual: p. 24).
Rate (Hz) #/
Rate (note) #
0.05–10.00 [Hz]
Frequency of modulation
note (p. 60)
Depth 0–127 Depth of modulation
Polarity
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.
Resonance # 0–127 Amount of feedback
Cross
Feedback
-98–+98 [%]
Adjusts the proportion of the
phaser sound that is fed back
into the eect. Negative “-”
settings will invert the phase.
Mix # 0–127
Level of the phase-shifted
sound
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
19: STEP PHASER
This is a stereo phaser. The phaser eect will be varied gradually.
