2. Select a destination.
The selected modulation destination is now shown in the list. Beside the
destination, a default value (50) has been set. The value represents the
modulation amount when the controller is at its full range.
• You can set positive and negative modulation values by
clicking on the value in the list, typing in a new value and
pressing the Enter key.
To enter negative values type a minus sign followed by the value.
3. Using the same basic method, you can add any num-
ber of modulation destinations for the controllers.
They will all be listed in the “Mod Dest” box for the respective controller.
• To remove a modulation destination click on its name in
the list and select “Off” from the pop-up.
Effects (EFX) page
This page features three separate effect units: Distortion,
Delay and Modulation (Phaser/Flanger/Chorus). The Ef-
fect page is opened by clicking the EFX button at the top
of the lower half of the control panel.
• Each separate effect section is laid out with a row of
buttons that determine the effect type or characteristic
and a row of sliders for making parameter settings.
• To activate an effect, click the “Active” button so that a
dot appears.
Clicking again deactivates the effect.
Distortion
You can select between 4 basic distortion characteristics:
• Distortion provides hard clipping distortion.
• Soft Distortion provides soft clipping distortion.
• Tape Emulation produces distortion similar to magnetic tape
saturation.
• Tube Emulation produces distortion similar to valve amplifiers.
The parameters are as follows:
Delay
You can select between 3 basic delay characteristics:
• Stereo Delay has two separate delay lines panned left and
right.
• In Mono Delay the two delay lines are connected in series for
monophonic dual tap delay effects.
• In Cross Delay the delayed sound bounces between the ste-
reo channels.
The parameters are as follows:
Modulation
You can select between 3 basic modulation characteris-
tics:
• The Phaser uses an 8-pole allpass filter to produce the classic
phasing effect.
• The Flanger is composed of two independent delay lines with
feedback for the left and the right channel respectively. The
delay time of both delays is modulated by one LFO with ad-
justable frequency.
• Chorus produces a rich chorus effect with 4 delays modulated
by four independent LFOs.
The parameters are as follows:
Parameter Description
Drive Sets the amount of distortion by amplifying the input sig-
nal.
Filter This parameter sets the crossover frequency of the dis-
tortion filter. The distortion filter consists of a lowpass fil-
ter and a highpass filter with a cutoff frequency equal to
the crossover frequency.
Tone This parameter controls the relative amount of lowpass
and high-pass filtered signal.
Level This controls the output level of the effect.
Parameter Description
Song Sync This switches tempo sync of the delay times on or off.
Delay 1 Sets the delay time ranging from 0ms to 728ms. If MIDI
sync is activated the range is from 1/32 to 1/1; straight,
triplet or dotted.
Delay 2 Same as Delay 1.
Feedback This controls the decay of the delays. With higher set-
tings the echoes repeat longer.
Filter A lowpass filter is built into the feedback loop of the de-
lay. This parameter controls the cutoff frequency of this
feedback filter. Low settings result in successive echoes
sounding darker.
Level This controls the output level of the effect.
Parameter Description
Song Sync This switches tempo sync of the Rate parameter on or
off.
Rate Sets the rate of the LFOs modulating the delay time. If
Song Sync is activated the rate will be synced to various
beat increments.
Depth This parameter controls the depth of the delay time mod-
ulation.
Delay This parameter sets the delay time of the four delay lines.
