Effects 158
-Clip Controls the amount of clipping applied to the waveform below the zero crossing.
Low Selects how much the low frequencies of the signal will be affected by the distortion.
Mid Selects how much the mid frequencies of the signal will be affected by the distortion.
High Selects how much the high frequencies of the signal will be affected by the distortion.
Output Controls the overall output of the distortion.
Distortion Grimy
This is a unique distortion effect that distorts a range of frequencies in a variably selectable band.
WetDry Controls the ratio of unprocessed and processed signal. At 100, the signal heard will be
100% effected.
Drive Controls the intensity of the distortion effect.
Grime Controls the softness and asymmetry of the distortion curve. More makes it a harder clip.
Center Selects the center frequency of the effected band.
Width Selects the width of the effected band.
Res Sets the amount of emphasis placed on the effected band.
Output Controls the overall output of the distortion.
Compressor Type Opto
A compressor is an effect that changes the dynamic range of a signal by automatically reducing gain. The Opto
Compressor is modeled after a vintage compressor that uses a small light to reduce the overall volume of the input
signal. This technique is usually associated with a soft and very musical attack and release.
This effect is best used as an insert by turning 'DIRECT' off. See page 150 for more on this.
WetDry Controls the ratio of unprocessed and processed signal. At 100, the signal heard will be
100% effected.
Input Sets the volume of the incoming signal.
Attack Sets how soon the compressor will start functioning after the threshold has been reached.
Rels Sets how soon the compressor will stop functioning after the signal drops below threshold.
Thresh Sets the level at which the compressor will start functioning.
Ratio This sets how much compression will affect the volume of the incoming signal. For instance,
with a ratio of 4:1, the incoming signal would have to increase by four decibels in order to
increase 1 decibel at the output.
Knee This sets whether the compression effect will be hard or soft. A ‘soft knee' response will
gradually slope to its maximum setting, and a ‘hard knee’ response will respond much
quicker.
Output This sets the volume of the output signal.
Compressor Type VCA
This compressor is more modern sounding, with a more transparent effect. A VCA Compressor tends to have quicker
attack and release times than an Opto Compressor.
WetDry Controls the ratio of unprocessed and processed signal. At 100, the signal heard will be
100% effected.
Input Sets the volume of the incoming signal.
Attack Sets how soon the compressor will start functioning after the threshold has been reached.
Rels Sets how soon the compressor will stop functioning after the signal drops below threshold.
