EFFECTS DESCRIPTIONS
The C3FX features a comprehensive, easy-to-use multi-effects processor. We encourage you to spend
some time becoming familiar with the operation and sound of each effect before you begin using them out at
a performance. Although effects can add a level of interest and surprise to musical material, it is often easy
to overdo it. Learn how to judiciously apply effects to your music and remember that sometimes your crowd
just wants to hear the song.
HALL REVERB (1, 2) – Simulates reverberation in a large concert hall.
ROOMS REVERB (1, 2, 3) – Simulates reverberation in a medium-sized studio room.
PLATE REVERB (1, 2, 3) – Simulates reverberation off a classic echo plate (a 4' x 8' suspended sheet
of metal with transducers at either end to produce reverb).
STEREO – Simulates a stereo effect.
FLANGER – Sweeping flanger effect. (This is similar to the chorus effect except the flanger modulates
the delayed signal over a shorter period – around 0-12ms.)
ECHO (1, 2) – Adds a traditional delay or echo effect.
CHORUS-REVERB – Produces layers of true stereo chorus and room reverb.
AUTO WAH – Adds a "wah-wah" effect similar to a guitar "wah" pedal.
VOCAL CANCEL – Reduces the vocals from stereo audio.
Note: This effect does not work on all recordings, such as mono recordings or compressed MP3 files.
Also, it will not work properly when the mixer is in MONO mode (see #20 under TOP PANEL
FEATURES).
AUTO PAN – Simulates the sound of a rotating speaker.
