CF-101 Chorus/Flanger
The CF-101 does double duty as chorus (for making textures rich and swirly)
and flanger (for creating sweeping, metallic effects). You can use it as a send ef-
fect or as an insert effect (connected between an instrument device and a
mixer).
PH-90 Phaser
The PH-90 is a stereo phaser effect. It has six parameters available on the de-
vice panel, allowing you to create both subtle sweeping sounds and extreme,
swirling special effects.
UN-16 Unison
The UN-16 simulates the sound of several detuned voices playing the same
notes simultaneously, producing a rich chorus-like effect with the voices spread
across the stereo field if you like.
COMP-01 Compressor
This is a combined compressor and limiter. It will affect the dynamics of the
sound, by boosting low levels and attenuating loud sounds. Use it for keeping
levels even (from individual devices or the whole mix), for adding punch and
power to drums, etc.
PEQ2 Two Band Parametric EQ
While the mixer device has basic two-band EQ on each channel, sometimes you
may need some more precise control over the tone color. For this purpose, you
can use the PEQ2. This device contains two independent parametric equalizers,
with controls for frequency, gain and Q value.
Spider Audio Merger & Splitter
This is not an effect device, but a utility. With the Spider Audio you can merge
up to four audio input signals into one output, as well as split one audio input
signal into four outputs. This makes audio signal routing much more flexible and
allows for very creative patching and connections.
Spider CV Merger & Splitter
Again, this is not an effect device, but a utility. With the Spider CV you can
merge up to four CV input signals into one CV output, as well as split CV or
Gate inputs into several outputs (one of which can be inverted). One use for the
Spider CV is to split Gate and Note CV to control several instrument devices
with one Matrix.
