Increase stereo breadth and chorus
To give the very dry-sounding “0001 raw pad” setting a little more stereo breadth and chorus
eect, modulate the Pickup positions, and assign them to the left and right channels.
1 Load the “0001 raw pad” setting.
2 Drag the Spread Pickup semicircle upward until the light blue dots come to rest near the line
that separates both semicircles.
This separates the stereo pan positions of the Pickups.
3 Click the 1 and 2 buttons to activate both of the modulation links in LFO1.
4 For the rst link, choose PickupA Position from the Target pop-up menu, and then drag the amt
slider to a small positive value of about 0.03 Hz to modulate the position of Pickup A.
5 For the second link, choose PickupB Position from the Target pop-up menu, and then drag the
amt slider to a small negative value of about −0.03 Hz to modulate the position of Pickup B.
You will hear a pleasant beating or chorus eect in the sound, which makes it broader and more
full, alleviating the unpleasant, dry character. Another unpleasant aspect is that the sound is too
strong in the mid frequency range and could use some equalization. You can use the Body EQ to
correct this.
6 Activate the Body EQ, and experiment with the Lo Mid Hi model—the standard setting. Try
reducing Mid to −0.5 and dragging the Mid Frequency slider to 0.37.
7 To give the pad a little depth, activate the Delay. Set the Delay Time to 1/4 and adjust the Xfeed
knob to 30%.
