Using Insert Effects

PHASER

By adding varied-phase portions to the direct sound, the
phaser effect gives a whooshing, swirling character to the
sound.

FLANGER

The flanging effect gives a twisting, jet-airplane-like
character to the sound.

TREMOLO

Tremolo is an effect that creates a cyclic change in volume.

Parameter/
Range

Explanation

TYPE

Selects the number of stages that the phaser effect will use.

4 STAGE

This is a four-phase effect. A light phaser
effect is obtained.

8 STAGE

This is an eight-phase effect. It is a popular
phaser effect.

12 STAGE

This is a twelve-phase effect. A deep phase
effect is obtained.

BI-PHASE

This is the phaser with two phase shift cir-
cuits connected in series.

RATE

0–100

This sets the rate of the phaser effect.

DEPTH

0–100

Determines the depth of the phaser effect.

MANUAL

0–100

Adjusts the center frequency of the phaser
effect.

RESONANCE

0–100

Determines the amount of resonance (feed-
back). Increasing the value will emphasize
the effect, creating a more unusual sound.

STEP RATE

OFF, 0–100

This sets the cycle of the step function that
changes the rate and depth.
When it is set to a higher value, the change
will be finer. Set this to “OFF” when not us-
ing the Step function.

E.LEVEL (Effect Level)

0–100

Adjusts the volume of the phaser.

D.LEVEL (Direct Level)

0–100

Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.

Parameter/
Range

Explanation

RATE

0–100

This sets the rate of the flanging effect.

DEPTH

0–100

Determines the depth of the flanging effect.

MANUAL

0–100

Adjusts the center frequency at which to
apply the effect.

RESONANCE

0–100

Determines the amount of resonance (feed-
back).
Increasing the value will emphasize the ef-
fect, creating a more unusual sound.

SEPARATION

0–100

Adjusts the diffusion. The diffusion in-
creases as the value increases.

E.LEVEL (Effect Level)

0–100

Adjusts the volume of the flanger.

D.LEVEL (Direct Level)

0–100

Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.

Parameter/
Range

Explanation

WAVE SHAPE

0–100

Adjusts changes in volume level.
A higher value will steepen wave’s shape.

RATE

0–100

Adjusts the frequency (speed) of the
change.

DEPTH

0–100

Adjusts the depth of the effect.
