USER MANUAL
• FLANGER: This effect is best described as "putting a jet engine in the
music". It's as if the music turns around due to phase shifting. You can
easily change the flanger time (cycle) with the "presets"(24). These
presets can be tuned with the "Time parameter knob"(33) in a range from
100mSec up to 16Sec. With the "Level parameter knob"(32) you can
change the flanger feedback level.
Hint: Every time you push the same preset button(24) you will restart the flanger cycle.
This gives a nice "extra touch" to the effect.
• MANUAL FILTER: This is a very effective digital frequency cutter. You
can easily change the cutoff frequency of the filter with the "presets"(24):
The presets(24) can be tuned with the "Time parameter knob"(33) in a
range from low pass filter (LPF) @ 50Hz (display shows: L 0.05kHz) up to
high pass filter (HPF) @ 21.1kHz (display shows: H 21.1kHz). With the
"Level parameter knob"(32) you can change the filter resonance level.
(This is the Q-factor of the filter, it changes the impact of the filter on a
selected frequency)
• AUTO FILTER: This is an automatic low pass filter (LPF). The cutoff
frequency varies in cycles from 20kHz down to 50Hz. With the preset
buttons(24) you can select filter cycles that are beat synchronized.
(example: press the preset called "8"
change its cutoff frequency from 20kHz to 50Hz and back) The presets
can be tuned with the "Time parameter knob"(33) in a range from
100mSec up to 16Sec. With the "Level parameter knob"(32) you can
change the filter resonance level. (This is the Q-factor of the filter, it
changes the impact of the filter on a selected frequency)
• REVERB: This effect is best described as the "church effect". Imagine you
play music in a church or in a very big, empty hall: the reverb you get from
all kinds of reflections against the walls is digitally simulated with this
effect. With the preset buttons(24) you can select 5 predefined reverb
times. These reverb times can be tuned with the "Time parameter
knob"(33) in a range from 0% to 100% in steps of 1%. With the "Level
parameter knob"(32) you can change the balance between the original
and the reverb sound.
• TRANS: Automatically cuts the sound to the rhythm of the beat. With the
"presets"(24) you can choose the length of the cutting cycles. (example:
With preset "1/4" (remember to push the "time parameter knob"(33) while
you select the preset button called "4") the music will be cut in ¼beat
slices) The presets can be tuned with the "Time parameter knob"(33) in a
range from 25mSec up to 16Sec. With the "Level parameter knob"(32) you
can adjust the "cutting time". When completely turned to the left (display
SYNQ
o Preset "2" (LPF @ 50Hz)
filtered. You will only hear the very deep sub bass.
o Preset "4" (LPF @ 2030Hz)
are filtered. Sounds like an old AM radio.
o Preset "8" (LPF @ 20000Hz)
are filtered. Music sounds normal.
o Preset "16" (HPF @ 210Hz)
are filtered. All the deep bass sounds are filtered, sounds like a
small FM transistor radio.
o Preset "32" (HPF @ 510Hz)
are filtered. The same as preset "16" but the FM transistor
radio seems to be a lot smaller.
