Pitch Shift
The Pitch Shift effect raises or lowers the pitch of the incoming signal by a predetermined amount.
Parameters
• Off/On: The Off/On parameter activates or deactivates the Pitch Shift effect.
• Semi-Tones: This parameter can be adjusted in half-steps from (-12) to (+12) offering up to an octave flat
and an octave sharp.
• Cents: Is a fine-tuning tool that divides the half-steps into smaller increments so that more accurate settings
can be made.
• Mix: The Mix parameter allows mixing between wet and dry. For a maximum wet level and minimum dry
level, adjust this parameter to 99. A setting of 0 will result in only dry signal passing through.
Chorus
The stereo Chorus effect mixes a delayed signal to the dry, while modulating the delay time, which period-
ically changes the interval of pitch shift. This yields a pleasing stereo effect that sounds like several voices at
once with slight variations in pitch.
Parameters
• On/Off: The On/Off parameter determines whether the effect is activated.
• Chorus/Flanger/Phaser: The Chorus/Flanger/Phaser parameter determines which effect is selected, the
Chorus (Ch), Flanger (FL) or Phaser (Ph).
• Rate: The Rate parameter adjusts the speed that the delay is modulated—rate can be varied from 0-99
(0-9.9 Hz in 0.1 Hz steps).
• Depth: The Depth control adjusts the amount of variation of delay time that is applied to the delay. The 0-99
range should be used with taste, and is generally decreased when increasing the Rate control.
Flanger
The Flanger originated from the recording technique called “flanging” in which the recording engineer would
rest his hand on the flange of the tape reel. By varying the pressure applied, the tape speed was varied, and
the pitch modulated. Electronic versions from the 70s also included feedback systems to increase the
intensity of the effect and thus created the classic Flanger effect.
Parameters
• On/Off: The On/Off parameter determines whether the effect is activated.
• Chorus/Flanger/Phaser: The Chorus/Flanger/Phaser parameter determines which effect is selected, the
Chorus (Ch), Flanger (FL) or Phaser (Ph).
• Rate: As in the Chorus effect, the Rate parameter adjusts the speed that the delay is modulated.
It can be varied from 0-99 (0-9.9Hz in 0.1 Hz steps).
• Depth: The Depth control adjusts the amount of variation of delay time that is applied to the delay. The 0-99
range should be used with taste, and is generally decreased when increasing the Rate control.
