GAIA’s Amazing Eff ects!

The GAIA SH-01 contains fi ve eff ects processors: distortion (DIST), modula-

tion (FLANGER), delay (DELAY), reverb (REVERB), and low boost (LOW

distort the sound, making it more aggressive. DELAY and REVERB let you

create lush, spacious sounds. Go ahead and try out various eff ects to hear

what they do.
