EFFECTS (Beat Effects) EFFECTS Beat Effects 1. DELAY effect Adds delay sound to the original sound. [BPM mode] A delay sound is added to the original sound at the value set with the TIME dial. ÷ The DEPTH dial can be used to adjust the feedback level. Feedback means to input the delay sound back into the delay input. This control allows the amount of the feedback to be adjusted (near the [MAX] setting, the sound level rises). ÷ The CHARACTER dial can be used to adjust the amount of filter applied to the feedback sound. ÷ The MIX dial can be used to adjust the levels of the original and delay sounds. TIME Sound level Original sound Feedback Delay sound DEPTH Time Delay block [RHYTHM mode] A delay sound set with the TAP button (TAP delay sound) is added to the original sound (Max 8-TAP). ÷ The DEPTH dial can be used to adjust the TAP delay level (near the [MAX] setting the sound volume will rise). ÷ The CHARACTER dial can be used to adjust the amount of filter applied to the TAP delay sound. ÷ The MIX dial can be used to adjust the levels of the original and TAP delay sounds. Sound level DEPTH Original Delay sound sound Time Delay Delay Delay sound sound sound TAP 0 TAP 1 TAP 2 TAP 3 TAP 4 TAP 1 delay block TAP 8 delay block 2. ECHO effect Adds delay sound to the original sound. [BPM mode] A delay sound is added to the original sound at the value set with the TIME dial. [RHYTHM mode] Adds TAP delay sound to the original sound (Max 8-TAP). Difference from the DELAY effect: ÷ Even if the BEAT EFFECTS lever switch is moved from [ON] to [OFF], the feedback sound or TAP delay sound will continue. ÷ In the BPM mode, if the DEPTH dial is set to [MAX] and the BEAT EFFECTS lever switch is moved from [ON] to [OFF], a hold-delay effect will be produced without attenuating the feedback sound (near the [MAX] setting, the sound level rises). In the RHYTHM mode, when the switch is turned [OFF] the effect will end with the final TAP delay sound for the original sound. BPM mode Echo block RHYTHM mode TAP 1 echo block TAP 8 echo block 3. PITCH ECHO effect Changes the pitch of the delay sound, and applies the effect to the original sound. In the same way as for the ECHO effect, the effect sound is maintained even if the BEAT EFFECTS lever switch is set from [ON] to [OFF]. [BPM mode] Changes the pitch of the delay sound set with the TIME dial, and applies the effect to the original sound. ÷ The DEPTH dial can be used to adjust the feedback level. ÷ The CHARACTER dial can be used to adjust the pitch of the delay sound. ÷ The MIX dial can be used to adjust the levels of the original and pitch echo sounds. Pitch echo block [RHYTHM mode] Changes the pitch of the TAP delay sound, and applies the effect to the original sound (Max 4-TAP). ÷ The DEPTH dial can be used to adjust the TAP delay level (near the [MAX] setting the sound volume will rise somewhat). ÷ The CHARACTER dial can be used to adjust the pitch of the TAP delay sound. ÷ The MIX dial can be used to adjust the levels of the original and pitch echo sounds. TAP 1 pitch echo block. TAP 2 pitch echo block. TAP 3 pitch echo block. TAP 4 pitch echo block. 4. TRANS effect Cuts the original sound intermittently. [BPM mode] Cuts the sound at the interval set by the TIME dial (cuts latter half of the interval). ÷ The DEPTH dial can be used to adjust the amount of shift when the sound is cut. DEPTH TIME MIN DEPTH TIME Time DEPTH TIME Time MAX Time ÷ The CHARACTER dial can be used to adjust the phase difference between L and R channels. CHARACTER TIME L-ch R-ch CHARACTER TIME L-ch MIN MAX R-ch Time Time Time Time ÷ The MIX dial can be used to adjust the levels of the original and trans sounds. 10
