EFFECTS
The DA15 provides eleven of the most popular effects (some settings actually combine
two effects). You can adjust the SPEED parameter of modulation effects or the TIME
parameter of delay/reverb effects simply by pressing the TAP switch twice. In addition to
using the EDIT 1 knob to adjust the most important parameters, you can make more
detailed adjustments by holding down the TAP button or BYPASS button while turning the
EDIT 1 knob.
NOTE: In order to adjust the effect parameters, Effect Bypass must be off (BYPASS LED
dark). If you hold down the TAP switch and turn the EDIT 1 knob when bypass is on
(BYPASS LED lit), you’ll be adjusting the noise reduction — not the effect parameter.
HINT: If you don’t want to use an effect in a channel program, select either DELAY or
REVERB as the effect type, and turn the EDIT 1 knob all the way to the left. This will set
the DELAY LEVEL or REVERB LEVEL to the minimum setting.
AUTO WAH
This models an auto-wah; a device that creates an automatic “wah” effect that varies with
your picking dynamics (i.e., how hard or soft you hit the strings).
EDIT 1 “SENS” Adjusts the sensitivity of the effect in response to the
volume of your guitar.
EDIT 2
[TAP+EDIT 1]
“ATTACK” Adjusts the response speed of the auto wah.
EDIT 3
[BYPASS+EDIT 1]
“POLARITY” Adjusts the direction in which the effect operates.
