Changing the ’Gating’ <SPEED>
If
you
did
not
change
it,
the
current
<SPEED>
value
is
'10'
which
means
that
the
delay
echo
will
disappear
very
quickly
after you
pause
or
stop
playing.
Let's
try
making
the
echo
linger
a
while
after
you've
stopped
playing.
Press
<SPEED>
to
make
the
green
LED
start
flashing.
Enter
'2'
and
...
(<ENTER>).
The
delay
echo
now
‘hangs’
a
little
after
you
stop
playing,
although
it
is
still
cut
off
rather
fast.
Decreasing
<SPEED>
value
further
will
make
the
release
speed
slower.
Normally
the
<FEEDBACK>
parameter
controls
'the
number
of
repeats’.
However
note
that
this
gating
function
‘cuts
off'
the
repeats
as
you
stop
playing.
The
selected
<WAVEFORM>
'TRIG’
‘ducks’
or
‘gates’
the
feedback
as
well
as
the
delay
echo
level.
Your 3."¢ preset sound: Dyn. Gated 400mS delay
Adjust the <SPEED> and <DEPTH> to your taste and
store the sound in preset #3. Press:
<PRESET> <3> <STORE>
3.7.6 Other <WAVEFORMS>
Feel
free
to
experiment
a
little
with
the
other
waveforms
of
the
dynamic
modulation
functions.
SINE & RAND gives Tremolo Effects
The
‘SINE’
and
the
‘RAND’
(random)
waveforms
produce
‘tremolo’-
effects
on
the
direct
signal
level
as
well
as
the
delay
echo
level.
If
<REVERSE>
is
OFF
the
tremolo
volume
modulation
is
done
in
a
syncronous
manner.
With
<REVERSE>
ON,
the
direct
level
is
up
while
the
delay
level
is
down
and
vice versa.
The
factory
preset
#93
is
an
example
of
a
pure
tremolo
effect
setting.
Press:
<PRESET>
<9>
<3>
<ENTER>.
Your 4.t" preset sound, Tremolo
Adjust the <SPEED> and <DEPTH> to your taste and
store the sound in preset #4. Press:
<PRESET> <4> <STORE>
ENV gives Compressing and Expanding
The
‘ENV’
waveform
selects
compressing
of
the
delay
level
in
a
manner
similar
to
the
‘TRIG’,
but
more
‘softly’
and
the
Feedback
parameter
is
not
affected.
With
<REVERSE>
ON,
the
‘ENV’
waveform
produces
a
modulation
to
form
an
‘expand’
function
similar
to
the
'ENV’+'REVERSE’
choice.
However,
both
the
direct
and ‘the delay
level
are affected.
This
allows
the
possibility
of
an
‘attack-kill’
effect.

<SPEED>

signals
appear
