The included effect plug-ins
Chorus
This is a single stage chorus effect. It works by doubling
whatever is sent into it with a slightly detuned version. See
also “StudioChorus” on page 30.
The parameters are as follows:
Cloner (Cubase only)
The Cloner plug-in adds up to four detuned and delayed
voices to the signal, for rich modulation and chorus effects.
The parameters are as follows:
Parameter Description
Tempo sync
on/off
The button below the Rate knob is used to switch tempo
sync on or off. The button is lit when tempo sync is on.
Rate If tempo sync is on, this is where you specify the base
note value for tempo syncing the chorus sweep (1/1 to
1/32, straight, triplet or dotted).
If tempo sync is off, the sweep rate can be set freely with
the Rate knob, without sync to tempo.
Width This determines the depth of the chorus effect. Higher
settings produce a more pronounced effect.
Spatial This sets the stereo width of the effect. Turn clockwise
for a wider stereo effect.
Mix Sets the level balance between the dry signal and the ef-
fect. If StudioChorus is used as a send effect, this should
be set to maximum as you can control the dry/effect bal-
ance with the send.
Delay This parameter affects the frequency range of the modu-
lation sweep, by adjusting the initial delay time.
Shape This changes the shape of the modulating waveform, al-
tering the character of the chorus sweep. Sine and trian-
gle waveforms are available.
Filter Lo/Hi These parameters allow you to roll off low and high fre-
quencies of the effect signal, respectively.
Side-Chain
On/Off
When this is activated, the modulation can be controlled
by a signal routed to the Side-Chain input. When the
side-chain signal exceeds the threshhold the modulation
will be controlled by the side-chain signal’s envelope. For
a description of how to set up Side-Chain routing, see
the chapter “Audio effects” in the Operation Manual.
Parameter Description
Voices This allows you to select the number of voices (up to
four). For each added voice, a Detune and a Delay slider
are added in the right half of the panel.
Spatial This spreads the added voices across the stereo spec-
trum. Turn clockwise for a deeper stereo effect.
Mix Sets the level balance between the dry signal and the ef-
fect. If Cloner is used as a send effect, this should be set
to maximum as you can control the dry/effect balance
with the send.
Output Allows you to reduce or increase the output gain by up to
+/- 12dB.
Detune slider
1–4
This controls the relative detune amount for each voice.
Positive and negative values can be set, from -100 to
100. A value of zero means no detune for that voice.
Delay slider
1–4
This controls the relative delay amount for each voice. A
value of zero means no delay for that voice.
Master Detune This parameter governs the overall depth of the detuning
for all voices. If this is set to zero, no detuning takes
place, regardless of the Detune slider settings.
Humanize Delay
knob
Humanize is turned on and off with the Static Delay button
button below this knob. When activated the delay settings
are subtly varied, for a richer effect. Values range from 0 to
100 (strongest delay variation). If deactivated, the set de-
lay amount is static, and the knob is blacked out.
Humanize De-
tune knob
Humanize is turned on and off with the Static Detune but-
ton below this knob. When activated, the detune settings
are subtly varied, for a richer effect. Values range from 0
to 100 (strongest detune variation). If deactivated, the set
detune amount is static, and the knob is blacked out.
Master Delay This parameter governs the overall depth of the delay for
all voices. If this is set to zero, no delay takes place, re-
gardless of the Delay slider settings.
