The included effect plug-ins
Metalizer
The Metalizer feeds the audio signal through a variable
frequency filter, with tempo sync or time modulation and
feedback control.
Phaser
Phaser produces the well-known “swooshing” phasing
effect with additional stereo enhancement.
The parameters are as follows:
Parameter Description
Feedback The higher the value, the more “metallic” the sound.
Sharpness Governs the character of the filter effect. The higher the
value, the narrower the affected frequency area, produc-
ing sharper sound and a more pronounced effect.
Tone Governs the feedback frequency. The effect of this will
be more noticeable with high Feedback settings.
On button Turns filter modulation on and off. When turned off, the
Metalizer will work as a static filter.
Mono button When this is on, the output of the Metalizer will be in mono.
Speed If tempo sync is on, this is where you specify the base
note value for tempo-syncing the effect (1/1 to 1/32,
straight, triplet or dotted). Note that there is no note value
modifier for this effect.
If tempo sync is off, the modulation speed can be set
freely with the Speed knob, without sync to tempo.
Tempo sync
on/off
The button above the Speed knob is used to switch tempo
sync on or off. The button is lit when tempo sync is on.
Output Sets the overall volume.
Mix Sets the level balance between the dry signal and the ef-
fect. If Metalizer is used as a send effect, this should be
set to maximum as you can control the dry/effect balance
with the send.
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 phaser 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 The width of the modulation effect between higher and
lower frequencies.
Feedback This determines the character of the phaser effect.
Higher settings produce a more pronounced effect.
Spatial When using multi-channel audio, Spatial creates a 3-di-
mensional impression by delaying modulation in each
channel.
Mix Sets the level balance between the dry signal and the ef-
fect. If the Phaser is used as a send effect, this should be
set to maximum as you can control the dry/effect balance
with the send.
Manual If this is activated, the phaser sweep will be static, i.e. no
modulation. You can instead change the sweep position
manually by turning this knob.
Filter Lo/Hi These parameters allow you to roll off low and high fre-
quencies of the effect signal, respectively.
