Parameter Value Explanation
Switch OFF, ON Turns the eect on/o.
Depth Knob
DELAY TIME,
FEEDBACK,
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.
Delay Time
(sync sw) #
OFF, ON
If this is ON, the modulation is
synchronized to the tempo of the
rhythm (owner’s manual p. 24).
Delay Time
(msec) #/
Delay Time
(note) #
1–1300 [msec]
Adjusts the time until the delay is
heard.
note (p. 31)
Acceleration 0–15
Adjusts the speed which the Delay
Time changes from the current setting
to a specied new setting.
The rate of change for the Delay
Time directly aects the rate of pitch
change.
Feedback # -98–+98 [%]
Adjusts the amount of the delay
sound that’s fed back into the eect.
Negative “-” settings invert the phase.
HF Damp
200–8000 [Hz],
BYPASS
Adjusts the frequency above which
sound fed back to the eect is ltered
out (BYPASS: no cut).
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 delay sound (W)
Level 0–127 Output Level
38: TAPE ECHO
A virtual tape echo that produces a realistic tape delay sound. This
simulates the tape echo section of a Roland RE-201 Space Echo.

Combination of playback heads to use
Select from three dierent heads with
dierent delay times.
S: short
M: middle
L: long
Repeat Rate # 0–127
Tape speed
Increasing this value will shorten the
spacing of the delayed sounds.
Intensity # 0–127 Amount of delay repeats
Bass -15–+15 [dB]
Boost/cut for the lower range of the
echo sound
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
