SW60XG APPLICATION SOFTWARE

SW60XG offers you to use two types of effect controllers, the one for Windows and the other for DOS;
EffectGearII and EFFECTCON respectively.

EffectGearII

The EffectGearII lets you apply various types of effects to the signal input by a microphone, the line-level
input signal from CD-ROM audio playback. You can also change the pitch of a song, or reduce the volume
of the main vocal from a song playing on a CD (for karaoke sing-along).

Startup Procedure

Double click on the [EffectGearII] icon and the EffectGearII application will start.
