52. Step Ring
This is a ring modulator that uses a 16-step sequence to vary
the frequency at which modulation is applied.
● Step 1~16 (0~127)—Frequency of ring modulation at
each step.
● Rate [sync] (Hz, Note)—Use this parameter to specify
whether (“Note”) or not (“Hz”) the rate should be synchro-
nized to the Arranger or Recorder tempo. Depending on
your choice, the setting range of the following parameter
refers to a speed (Hz) or a note value.
● Rate [Hz] (0.05~10.00Hz)—Rate at which the 16-step
sequence will cycle.
● Rate [note] (musical notes)—Rate parameters can be set
as a note-value of a tempo if you set the “Sync” parameter
above to “Note”. Specify the value of the desired note.
● Attack (0~127)—Speed at which the modulation fre-
quency changes between steps.
● EQ Low Gain (–15dB~0~15dB)—Gain of the low fre-
quency range.
● EQ High Gain (-15dB~0~15dB)—Gain of the high fre-
quency range.
● Balance (D100:0W, D50:50W, D0:100W)—Volume bal-
ance between the direct (D) and the effect sound (W).
● Level (0~127)—Output level.
53. Tremolo
Cyclically modulates the volume to add tremolo effect to the
sound.
● Modulation Wave (TRI, SQR, SIN, SAW1, SAW2)—Modu-
lation Wave. TRI: triangle wave, SQR: square wave, SIN: sine
wave, SAW1/2: sawtooth wave.
● Rate [sync] (Hz, Note)—Use this parameter to specify
whether (“Note”) or not (“Hz”) the modulation rate should
be synchronized to the Arranger or Recorder tempo.
Depending on your choice, the setting range of the follow-
ing parameter refers to a speed (Hz) or a note value.
● Rate [Hz] (0.05~10.00Hz)—Frequency, i.e. modulation
speed.
● Rate [note] (musical notes)—Rate parameters can be set
as a note-value of a tempo if you set the “Sync” parameter
above to “Note”. Specify the value of the desired note.
● Depth (0~127)—Depth to which the effect is applied.
● EQ Low Gain (–15dB~0~15dB)—Gain of the low fre-
quency range.
● EQ High Gain (-15dB~0~15dB)—Gain of the high fre-
quency range.
● Level (0~127)—Output level.
54. Auto Pan
Cyclically modulates the stereo location of the sound.
● Modulation Wave (TRI, SQR, SIN, SAW1, SAW2)—Modu-
lation Wave. TRI: triangle wave, SQR: square wave, SIN: sine
wave, SAW1/2: sawtooth wave.
● Rate [sync] (Hz, Note)—Use this parameter to specify
whether (“Note”) or not (“Hz”) the modulation rate should
be synchronized to the Arranger or Recorder tempo.
Depending on your choice, the setting range of the follow-
ing parameter refers to a speed (Hz) or a note value.
● Rate [Hz] (0.05~10.00Hz)—Frequency, i.e. modulation
speed.
● Rate [note] (musical notes)—Rate parameters can be set
as a note-value of a tempo if you set the “Sync” parameter
above to “Note”. Specify the value of the desired note.
● Depth (0~127)—Depth to which the effect is applied.
● EQ Low Gain (–15dB~0~15dB)—Gain of the low fre-
quency range.
● EQ High Gain (-15dB~0~15dB)—Gain of the high fre-
quency range.
● Level (0~127)—Output level.
55. Step Pan
This uses a 16-step sequence to vary the panning of the
sound.
● Step 1~16 (L64~0~63R)—Pan at each step.
● Rate [sync] (Hz, Note)—Use this parameter to specify
whether (“Note”) or not (“Hz”) the rate should be synchro-
nized to the Arranger or Recorder tempo. Depending on
your choice, the setting range of the following parameter
refers to a speed (Hz) or a note value.
● Rate [Hz] (0.05~10.00Hz)—Rate at which the 16-step
sequence will cycle.
● Rate [note] (musical notes)—Rate parameters can be set
as a note-value of a tempo if you set the “Sync” parameter
above to “Note”. Specify the value of the desired note.
● Attack (0~127)—Speed at which the pan changes between
steps.
● Input Sync Sw (Off, On)—Specifies whether an input note
will cause the sequence to resume from the first step of the
sequence (ON) or not (OFF).
● Input Sync Threshold (0~127)—Volume at which an input
note will be detected.
● Level (0~127)—Output level.
56. Slicer
By applying successive cuts to the sound, this effect turns a
conventional sound into a sound that appears to be played as
a backing phrase. This is especially effective when applied to
sustain-type sounds.
● Step 1~16 (0~127)—Level at each step.
● Rate [sync] (Hz, Note)—Use this parameter to specify
whether (“Note”) or not (“Hz”) the rate should be synchro-
nized to the Arranger or Recorder tempo. Depending on
your choice, the setting range of the following parameter
refers to a speed (Hz) or a note value.
● Rate [Hz] (0.05~10.00Hz)—Rate at which the 16-step
sequence will cycle.
● Rate [note] (musical notes)—Rate parameters can be set
as a note-value of a tempo if you set the “Sync” parameter
above to “Note”. Specify the value of the desired note.
● Attack (0~127)—Speed at which the level changes
between steps.
● Input Sync Sw (Off, On)—Specifies whether an input note
will cause the sequence to resume from the first step of the
sequence (ON) or not (OFF).
● Input Sync Threshold (0~127)—Volume at which an input
note will be detected.
● Mode (Legato, Slash)—Sets the manner in which the vol-
ume changes as one step progresses to the next.
LEGATO: The change in volume from one step’s level to the
next remains unaltered. If the level of a following step is
the same as the one preceding it, there is no change in vol-
ume.
SLASH: The level is momentarily set to 0 before progressing
to the level of the next step. This change in volume occurs
even if the level of the following step is the same as the
preceding step.
