EFFECTS - MOD

Tremolo

A tremolo is basically a change of the signal level
controlled by an LFO. The G-Natural offers variations of
this effect; ranging from soft and smooth to hard and
aggressive.

Speed
Range: 0.050 Hz to 20 Hz
This parameter sets the speed of the effect.

Tempo
Range: Ignore, 2 to 1/32T (T= Triplet & D= Dotted)
When set to any value between 1 and 1/32T, the G-
Natural’s Global Tempo is subdivided according to this
setting. When set to “Ignore”, the speed set by the Speed
parameter is used instead.

The Tap Master parameter – located in the Utility
menu – specifies whether the global tempo or the
tempo set by the speed parameter in each preset
should be used at preset change.

Depth
Range: 0 to 100%
The Depth parameter specifies the intensity of the effect.
The value represents the amplitude of the modulating
waveform.

Type
Range: Soft or Hard (Sinus or Square)
Two waveforms are available as modulation sources for
the tremolo effect. Setting this parameter to hard results
in a steeper effect. Listen and choose the appropriate
option.

Sine

Square

Width
Range: 0 to 100%
If you set this parameter e.g. to 20% with a type setting
of hard, the waveform will be on for 80% of one period.
With a type setting of soft, a 50% setting would yield a
full sine wave, whilst 0% and 100% would yield a crest-
to-peak and peak-to crest curve, respectively.

Pulsewidth

Hi-Cut
Range: 20 Hz to 20 kHz
This parameter attenuates the high frequencies of the
Tremolo effect. Use the hi-cut filter to create a less
dominant tremolo effect without changing the effect’s
depth.
