610 EFFECTS MENU
For final processing and enriching, we offer two separate studio-quality effects units just
like real 19" rack devices.
Many algorithms create a stereo signal. Take care that the sequencer track operates the
duct in "stereo" mode.
Effects units may be selectively operated one behind the other (serial) or parallel. Switching
may be changed via the mode switch.
The following algorithms & effects are available:
• Mono delay (msec & tempo sync): Possibly a simple delay with free selection of delay
time or synched to the sequencer tempo with a musical raster. In case of high feedback
values, a reduction of the damping frequency is required to provide naturalness to
echoes.
• Stereo delay (msec & tempo sync): Like mono delay; features two models. Repetitions
may take place on separate channels (feedback controller to the right: dual delay) or in
ping-pong mode (controller to the left), whereby the signal alternates between the sides.
• Chorus: Produces a typical "floating/shimmering sound" by modulated detuning of a
signal to "thicken up" its sound or spread it across the stereo field. Detuning is achieved
by a short delay, the length of which can be varied by the modulation. This produces the
so-called "Doppler" effect and broadens the signal.
• Flanger: Algorithmically similar to chorus, but different in that the delay time is
significantly lower and delay works with repetitions (feedback). A flanger sounds more
"cutting" and up-front than a chorus.
• Phaser: A modulation effect just like chorus & flanger, but in this case no detuning takes
place. Filter components periodically alter the signal's "phase response" (principle of the
"phase shifter"). Characteristic notches are produced in the frequency spectrum
response (comb filter effects).
• Room reverb/hall reverb: Reverb offers realistic simulation of realistic reverberation.
Room creates the impression of a small to mid-sized recording room, while Hall
produces the sound impression of a concert hall. A particular is that both effects
algorithms provide a modulation parameter, which may remove possible resonance at
low dosages and can produce a soft chorus effect at higher values.
• LoFi: This algorithm gives the sound a little bit of "grit", or a certain measure of signal
destruction depending on its setting. Turn down the internal sample rate as much as you
like to steal a few bits from the sound's resolution. This is definitely unconventional...
• Vintage compressor: Ideal for thickening up the signal a little. The algorithm emulates
an older popular circuit design that is similar to studio legends like the Urei 1176 or
simple compressor pedals. A so-called "FET building block" controls the volume via the
input level simply, effectively, and quite musically, as well as the set compression ratio
and the attack and release.
• 3-band EQ: This sound controller works like a conventional mixer with controller for
bass, highs, and two controllers for the (variable) mids. This adds the final polish to your
sound.
