Modulation FX Parameters
14: RING MODULATOR
This is an eect that applies amplitude modulation (AM) to the
input signal, producing bell-like sounds. You can also change the
modulation frequency in response to changes in the volume of the
sound sent into the eect.

BALANCE
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.
Frequency # 0–127
Adjusts the frequency at which
modulation is applied.
Sens # 0–127
Adjusts the amount of frequency
modulation applied.
Polarity UP, DOWN
Determines whether the frequency
modulation moves towards higher
frequencies (UP) or lower frequencies
(DOWN).
Low Gain -15–+15 [dB] Gain of the low frequency range
High Gain -15–+15 [dB] Gain of the high frequency range
Balance #
D100:0W–
D0:100W
Volume balance between the direct
sound (D) and the eect sound (W)
Level 0–127 Output level
15: TREMOLO
Cyclically modulates the volume to add tremolo eect to the sound.
