Delay
Delay effects create a delayed version of the input signal,
and as such, they can be used for many different purposes,
such as creating a sense of spaciousness or thickening a
sound.
Miscellaneous
This category contains effect types not included in the
other categories.
Effect Parameters
Each of the above-mentioned effects includes a range of
parameters allowing you to adjust the way in which it pro-
cesses the input signal. Using these parameters, the behav-
ior of each effect can be optimized in line with, for
example, the type of sound being processed or the type of
music being played. While the function of each of these
parameters is described in the following table, it is good
practice to also listen to how they actually change the
sound of the respective effect in order to achieve the best
settings.
Parameters with identical names
Certain effects contain parameters with identical names yet performing dif-
ferent functions. In the following table, the function of each such parameter
is described separately and the corresponding effects are identified.
*1
The Bottom parameter’s setting is valid only when less than that of
the Top parameter.
*2
The Color parameter’s setting has no effect with certain combina-
tions of Mode and Stage settings.
Effect Type

Description
CrossDelay
A pair of delays featuring cross-over feed-
back to produce a sound that swirls
between the left and right channels.
TempoCrosDly
A pair of delays with cross-over feedback
and a tempo-synchronized delay time.
TempoDlyMono
A single mono delay synchronized with the
instrument’s tempo.
TempoDlySt
A stereo delay synchronized with the
instrument’s tempo.
Delay LR
A delay with separate left and right chan-
nels.
Delay LCR
A triple delay processing left, right, and
center channels independently.

A stereo delay with fully independent left
and right channels.
