With a setting of 255, the fuzz effect is
at 100%.
Drive
MASTER FX
[CTRL] *1
0–255
Adjusts the depth of distortion.
Because increasing Drive also
increases the output level, make
adjustments by lowering Level.
Tone
MASTER FX
[CTRL] *1
0–255
Adjusts the tone.
Raising the Tone emphasizes the high-
frequency region.
Lowering the Tone emphasizes the
low-frequency region.
Level
MASTER FX
[CTRL] *1
0–255
Specifies the output level.
Set this so that the volume is
essentially the same whether the
MASTER FX Sw is on or off.

at 100%.
SampleRate
MASTER FX
[CTRL] *1
0–255
Specifies the sampling frequency at
which the crusher effect resamples the
sound.
Increasing the SampleRate lowers the
sampling frequency, producing a more
lo-fi sound.
Filter
MASTER FX
[CTRL] *1
0–255
Specifies the cutoff frequency of the
LPF that is applied before Crusher
resamples the sound.
By lowering the Filter setting you can
reduce harsh high-frequency noise.
PHASER
Balance
MASTER FX
[CTRL] *1
OFF, 1–255

Choose ON if you want the phase
effect to synchronize with the tempo.
Rate
MASTER FX
[CTRL] *1
(TempoSync =
OFF) 0–255
(TempoSync =
ON) 64.00–0.25
step
(steps of 0.25)
Specifies the rate of the phase effect.
Depth
MASTER FX
[CTRL] *1
0–255 Specifies the depth of the phase effect.
Resonance
MASTER FX
[CTRL] *1
0–255
Adjusts the amount of resonance.
Raising the Resonance emphasizes
the effect and produces a strongly
distinctive sound.
Manual
MASTER FX
[CTRL] *1
0–255
Specifies the center frequency at
which the phase effect is applied.
By raising Manual, you can reduce
the phase effect in the low-frequency
region.
(As necessary, lower Depth as well to
lighten the phase effect)
Type
4ST, 8ST, 12ST,
BI-PHASE
Selects the structure of the phaser.
4ST: 4-stage phaser
(produces a light phase
effect)
8ST: 8-stage phaser (produces a typical phase
effect)
12ST: 12-stage phase (produces a deep phase
effect)
BI-PHASE: a phaser that connects two
phase shift circuits in series (produces a
distinctive phase effect)

Manual
MASTER FX
[CTRL] *1
0–255
Specifies the center frequency at
which the flanging effect is applied.
By raising Manual, you can reduce the
flanging effect in the low-frequency
region.
(As necessary, you can also lower
Depth to make the flanging effect
shallower.)
