Selecting an effect pattern
When using an effect, you can have the effect settings change along with the
performance. Such a group of effect settings are called an
effect pattern . The
MC-09 contains 30 effect patterns for immediate use. You can also create your
own effect patterns and save them in internal memory or on a memory card.
Filter : Modify the brightness
Isolator : Boost/cut specific frequency regions
Phaser : Modulate the sound
Slicer : Intermittently cut the sound
1
Press the [EFFECTS] button.

Make sure that the display indicates an effect pattern number.
Also make sure that none of the BPM, OCT, or TONE/TYPE indicators are
lit. If one of these indicators is lit, press the [DISPLAY] button several times,
until the indicator goes out.
The effect on/off setting
will be remembered until
you turn off the power.
