Chapter 101: Using Synchronic 591
Effect User Knobs (FX1 and FX2)
The Effect module provides two assignable User
Knob controls (FX1 and FX2) that provide direct
control over any of the Effect modules Edit
mode settings. The current control assignment
is displayed below each User Knob.
Synchronic Effect Edit Mode
In Edit mode, the Effect module provides easy
access to the Gain, Noise, Filter, and Delay ef-
fects and their parameters.
Enabling a Synchronic Effect
Enabling an effect processes the sound (A/B
Sounds) coming from the Playback module. Dis-
abling an effect essentially bypasses the effect.
To enable or disable the Gain, Noise, Filter, or
Delay effect:
 Click the Effect Enable button above the Effect
Select button. The button is illuminated when
the effect is enabled.
Selecting a Synchronic Effect
for Editing
To view the Gain, Noise, Filter, or Delay effect
parameters:
 Click the Effect Select button (Gain, Noise,
Filter, or Delay). The selected effect’s button will
illuminate, and the effect’s parameters will be
available for editing.
Synchronic Gain Effect
Gain is used to add Volume, Distortion, or Satu-
ration to the sound (A/B Sounds) coming from
the Playback module. Similar to the Playback
section, the Range controls set Beginning and
End values. Range settings can also be modu-
lated by an LFO to create dynamic gain effects.
BED and END Range (–96 to 24 dB) Use the BEG
and END parameters to set the amount of Gain
effect. The specified Range settings control the
amount of modulation by LFO1 and LFO2.
LFO1 and LFO2 Set the Waveshape and Dura-
tion for dynamic Gain effects. For static gain ef-
fects, set both LFO1 and LFO2 to Off.
