EFFECTS – FILTER
Touch Formant
Additional Parameters
The Touch Formant effect is controlled by the input
dynamics – similar to a Touch Wah.
Sensitivity
Range: 0 to 10
The Sensitivity parameter must be set according to the
base level of your particular preset.
Response
Range: Slow or Fast
This parameter determines the speed of the sweep when
you hit the strings.
Auto Formant –
Additional Parameters
Speed
Range: 0.050 to 20Hz
This parameter sets the speed of the effect.
Tempo
Range: Ignore, 2 to 1/32T (T= Triplet & D= Dotted)
When set to any value between 1 and 1/32T, the G-
System’s Global Tempo is subdivided according to this
setting. When set to “Ignore”, the speed set by the Speed
parameter is used instead.
LFO Shape
Range: Triangle or Sine
This parameter sets the shape of the frequency boost.
Bright
Range: 0 to 100%
Depending on the Low, Mid and high settings you may
need to adjust the high-end frequencies of this effect.
Formant Filters – Introduction
The Formant filters are somewhat special. The
characteristic vowels of the human speech can also be
described as formants. Imagine a pedal that does not
say “WAH WAH”, but instead goes “OOWEEAA-
OOWEEAA”.
If you set up an expression pedal to control the sweep
parameter, you can use the pedal to sweep through the
vowel sounds.
Formant parameters – Generic
Low, Mid & High
Range: Heat, Hit, Head, Had, But, Father, All, Boot, Foot
or Bird.
We have used names phonetically similar to the types of
sounds emulated by that particular formant filter.
Sweep
Range: 0 to 100%
Assign an expression pedal to control the Sweep
parameter, and you have full “live” control of the
emulated vowels.
Bright
Range: 0 to 100%
Depending on the Low, Mid and High settings, you may
need to adjust the high-end frequencies of this effect.
Resonance
Range: 0 to 100%
Use this parameter to increase filter emphasis. Use it
with caution, as high settings combined with certain
vowels may sound very harsh.
OutLev – Out Level
Range: -100 to 0dB
This parameter sets the overall Output level of this effect.
Enable
Range: Off/On
The effect’s status. All settings are stored as part of the
preset even if this particular effect is disabled.
