Depending on the MIDI controller selected in the

field, you may select whether crossing a threshold level of

64 that will cause the speed change or a switch action that

will cause the speed change.

When LEVEL is selected, once the controller goes past a

level of 64, the speed will change. When TOGGLE is

selected, the selected controller will switch between speed

1 and speed 2 and vice versa. Confused? Read on!

Let’s take a practical example. Let us imagine that you are

using the modwheel (controller #1 - the default) to switch

between speed 1 and speed 2. With LEVEL selected,

pushing the modwheel up will cause the controller to go

over the 64 threshold (i.e. as it moves from 0-127) and the

rotary speaker effect will change from speed 1 to speed 2

(i.e. typically, get faster). Bringing it back down again will

once again go over the 64 threshold (i.e. as it travels from

127-0) causing the rotary speaker effect to go from speed

2 to speed 1 (i.e. typically, get slower). However, with

TOGGLE selected, pushing it up will cause it to change

from speed 1 to speed 2 but you must bring the modwheel

down again and push it back up to go from speed 2 to

speed 1.

LEVEL is recommended for use with continuous controllers

(modwheel, pressure, breath, footpedal, etc.), whilst

TOGGLE is recommended for ‘switch action’ controllers

(footswitch type controllers such as sustain, etc.).

This parameter is really only of any use when in MULTI

mode. Because several programs may be sharing the

same effect, you must designate which MIDI channel will

initiate the change from SPEED1 to SPEED2. If the effect

is to be used in a MULTI, select the channel of the

controller that will trigger the change in speed (for use in

SINGLE mode, select the same MIDI channel as the

program’s MIDI channel).

NOTE 1: In practice, it is likely that only one sound will be routed to a multi-effects channel

producing a rotary speaker effect (typically, an organ sound) in a multi. In this case, set

the parameter to the same channel as the part the organ sound (or whatever) is in.

For example, if the organ sound is in PART 5 on MIDI channel 5, set 5 in the field

shown here.

Of course, more than one part may be routed to a multi-effects channel producing a

rotary speaker effect but one channel must be designated to initiate the change from

SPEED1 to SPEED2. Select as appropriate.

NOTE 2: Please note that because the stereo mod section passes through the echo

section, any stereo mod effects you create will be ‘monofied’ when mono delay effects are

selected. As a result, you cannot effectively use the rotary speaker effects with mono

echo.

NOTE 3: You will find that the rotary speaker effect is best created with no ‘straight’ signal.

You should use the DIRECT SIGNAL: ON/OFF function in the FX OUTPUT pages to turn

off the straight signal. Preset rotary speaker effects have DIRECT SIGNAL set to OFF.
