and other instruments.

electric guitars and other instruments.

PLATE 1: A lush, smooth vocal plate reverb with a long decay time and warm tonality.
PLATE 2: An emulation of vintage plate reverb with bright, slightly tinny tonality and a medium-length decay.
PLATE 3: A short, bright plate reverb effective for creating subtle spaces.
MODULATION EFFECTS
CHORUS: A complex, 6-voice chorus ensemble effect with short delays often referred to as a "Chorus / Doubler".
Discrete stereo signal path. Slow and watery.
FLANGE: Classic stereo flange: a slow, slightly metallic sweep with a discrete stereo signal path.
ROTARY: Fast rotary speaker simulator creates the classic, lush Doppler effect of an organ’s spinning horn.
Effective on guitars, vocals, keyboards and other instruments.
DELAY EFFECTS
DELAY 1: A simple slap-back echo with no feedback particularly effective on vocals and rhythm guitars.
DELAY 2: Medium-length poly-rhythmic delay with crossover feedback. 3 to 4 ratio between L and R delay times
(291 to 388ms) for 3/4 vs. 4/4 feel. Useful for solo instruments where a long, trailing echo effect is desired.
MULTI EFFECTS
CHORUS – ROOM 1: Room reverb into a slow flanging modulation creates a spacey effect.
CHORUS – ROOM 2: Fast modulation provides a dramatic chorus effect in a small room for a very lush chorus +
reverb sound with a discrete stereo signal path.
BYPASS: Bypasses the effects processor – no effects will be heard.
