Here controls for the LFO of the track can be found.
LFOS - Controls the speed of LFO.
LFOD - Controls the depth of the LFO.
LFOM - Controls the balance between the waveforms of
the LFO.
CONTROL GATE BOX REVERB “CTR-GB”
Use this control machine to control the parameters of
the GATE BOX reverb. The effect and routing pages
function the same way as described for the RHYTHM
EHCO delay.
Synthesis window
This page shows the same parameters as found in the
STEREO MASTER EFFECTS menu under the REV tab.
DVOL is the delay to reverb level parameter. This parame-
ter allows the output of the RHYTHM ECHO to be routed
into the GATE BOX reverb.
PRED is the pre-delay parameter. The direct and delay
signal mix is delayed by an amount of time to give the
impression of the reverbation arriving after the sound.
DEC is the decay time parameter. Decay time is the time it
takes for the reverbation to die out after a sound has
ended. The decay parameter is active in the range of 0.5 to
3 seconds.
DAMP is the damping control parameter. Damping
decreases the high frequencies to give the impression of
soft walls.
HP is a high-pass filter, filtering the output from the reverb.
LP is a low-pass filter, filtering the output from the reverb.
GATE sets the gate time. The reverbated signal is gated
after this time, if the signal level is low. The maximal value
for this parameter gives infinite time - in other words, the
gate is off.
LEV is the output level parameter of the GATE BOX
reberb.
CONTROL MASTER EQ “CTR-EQ”
Use this control machine to control the parameters of
the MASTER EQ equalizer. The effect and routing
pages function the same way as described for the
RHYTHM EHCO delay.
Synthesis window
This page shows the same parameters as found in the
STEREO MASTER EFFECTS menu under the EQ tab.
LF is the cut/boost frequency parameter of the low shelf fil-
ter.
LG is the low shelf gain parameter that controls how much
the low frequencies should be boosted / reduced between
-15dB and +15dB.
HF is the cut/boost frequency parameter of the high shelf
filter.
HG is the high shelf gain parameter that controls how
much the high frequencies should be boosted / reduced
between -15dB and +15dB.
PF is the parametric EQ frequency parameter, that is the
center frequency of the parametric EQ band.
PG is the parametric EQ gain parameter. It controls how
much the parametric EQ should boost or reduce between -
15dB and +15dB, at the frequency set by the “PF” parame-
ter.
PQ is the parametric EQ Q factor. The Q controls the width
of the band that is boosted or reduced by the parametric
EQ. High Q-values give a narrow band.
GAIN is the final out volume control. This parameter allows
you to adjust the out volume of the main stereo out.
CONTROL DYNAMIX PROCESSOR “CTR-DX”
Use this control machine to control the parameters of
the DYNAMIX dynamic processor. The effect and rout-
ing pages function the same way as described for the
RHYTHM EHCO delay.
Synthesis window
This page shows the same parameters as found in the
STEREO MASTER EFFECTS menu under the DYN tab.
ATCK controls the attack time, which is the time it takes
the volume detector to react to the Attack part of the sound
signal. Long attack times let fast transients through the
compressor.
REL controls the release time. This is the time it takes the
volume detector to react to the Release part of the sound
