As the LPF frequency is increased more of the total frequency range is passed. When set to THRU, the LPF is effectively OFF and has no effect. 400 Hz 16 kHz (ATK) LVL (Output Level: -41 — +24 dB) Determines the output level of the effect. LVL (Output Level: -41 — +6 dB) Determines the output level of the effect. ■ DISTORTION (DIST) The FX500 distortion stage digitally produces smooth, rich distortion that can be adjusted to achieve and extremely wide variety of effects. In addition to providing full control of the degree of distortion produced, a variable low-pass filter gives you broad control over the tone of the distortion. A built-in noise gate function with adjustable trigger level effectively shuts out unwanted noise. /DST TRG LPF LVL 80 -45 THRU-10 DST (Distortion Drive Level: 0 —100) Sets the degree of distortion produced. Higher values produce more distortion. TRG (Noise Gate Trigger Level: -80 --30 dB) Sets the threshold level of the distortion effect stage noise gate. Signals below the threshold level are suppressed, thus reducing noise. Caution: excessively high TRG levels can cause notes to be cut off unnaturally. Shaded portion of signal passed. Noise gate trigger level. (TRG) ■ EQUALIZER (EQ) The FX500 features a three-band equalizer stage for wide ranging tonal control. Up to 15 dB of boost or cut can be applied to the low, mid and high bands, and the center frequency of the mid band can be adjusted over a broad 400 Hz — 6.3 kHz range. ILoG MiG MiF HiG + 0 -5 l.E 0 / TYP LVL Eq 0 LoG (Low Gain: -15 — +15 dB) Sets the amount of boost or cut applied to frequencies below 280 Hz. A setting of 0 produces no boost or cut. 'Minus'' values produce cut and "plus" values produce boost. MIG (Mid Gain: -15 — +15 dB) SPED (Modulation Speed: 0.1 — 20.0 Hz) Sets the amount of boost or cut applied to mid-band frequencies. A setting of 0 produces no boost or cut. "Minus" values produce cut and "plus" values produce boost. MiF (Mid Frequency: 400 — 6.3 kHz) Sets the center frequency of the Mid equalizer band. HiG (High Gain: -15 — +15 dB) Sets the amount of boost or cut applied to frequencies above 6.3 kHz. A setting of 0 produces no boost or cut. "Minus" values produce cut and "plus" values produce boost. LVL (Output Level: -41 — +6 dB) Determines the output level of the effect. ■ MODULATION (MOD) The MODULATION effect stage contains a number of effects based on signal strength (amplitude) and signal delay variation, or "modulation". The different MODULATION effects are selected by the TYP (type) parameter which appears at the left of every MODULATION display screen. Sets the speed of modulation and therefore the rate of effect variation. PMD (Pitch Modulation Depth: 0 — 100 %) Sets the depth of delay time modulation. Higher values deepen the pitch modulation portion of the effect. AMD (Amplitude Modulation Depth: 0 — 100 %) Sets the depth of amplitude modulation. Higher values deepen the amplitude modulation portion of the effect. MIX (Mixing Balance: 0 —100 %) Sets the balance between the direct and effect sound. Higher values produce a greater proportion of effect sound in relation to direct sound. LVL (Output Level: -41 — +6 dB) Determines the output level of the effect. • Flanger (Fig) Flanging is a fairly pronounced effect based primarily on delay time modulation. By adjusting the various parameters you should be able to create an extremely broad range of sounds, from gentle shimmering to wild sweeps. / TYP Cho SPED 0.6 PMD 50 ;typ SPED DEP Flfi 0.1 66 ;typ dly pb Pig 1.3 77 TYP (Type: Cho, Fig, Sym, Trm) This parameter is common to all modulation programs, and is used to select the desired effect. The various modulation effects are indicated by the following abbreviations: Cho: Chorus Fig: Flanger Sym: Symphonic Trm: Tremolo Each modulation effect has a slightly different set of parameters. The parameters for each type are described below. • Chorus (Cho) The chorus effect combines delay time and amplitude modulation to effectively thicken and add warmth to the sound. 'TYP MIX LVL Fig 40 0 ITYP SPED Cho 0.6 PMD 50 / TYP AMD MIX LVL Cho 40 0 0 SPED (Modulation Spaed: 0.1 — 20.0 Hz) Sets the speed of modulation and therefore the rate of effect variation. PEP (Depth: 0 — 100 %) Sets the depth of modulation. Higher values produce deeper modulation. DLY (Delay Time: 0.2 —15.0 ms) Sets the delay time. Delay times shorter than 1 msec produce the greatest effect in the high-frequency range. With delay times from 1 to 3 ms the effect extends to the middle frequencies. FB (Feedback: 0 — 100 %) Determines the amount of effect-sound feedback returned to the input of the processor. Higher values produce a more pronounced effect. MIX (Mixing Balance: 0 — 100 %) PH (Phase: -8 — +8) Sets the balance between the direct and effect sound. Higher values produce a greater proportion of effect sound in relation to direct sound.
