Digital Effects Reverbs Reverberation is probably the most widely used effect because it allows you to simulate the sound reflection characteristics of almost any kind of room. In a real room, reverb is a result of sound reflecting off room surfaces such as the walls, floor, ceiling, and objects in the room. The materials, size, and shape of the ro[...]

Gated Reverb Gated reverb doesn't behave as naturally as the standard varieties of reverb. Originally, it was created by taking a long, dense reverb and chopping it short with a noise gate. This made for a burst of reverberation energy that could help thicken up a variety of sounds. Digital signal processing techniques improved and soon allowe[...]

X-Over Type Selects which crossover type will be used for the Primary Secondary reverb stages. The two crossover types are High Pass (HP) and Low Pass (LP). X-Over Freq.

The Dual Chorus creates two different pitch “voices”, while the Octal Chorus creates eight voices for extremely full, rich sounds . Figure 4-1 Modulation Example The only difference between choruses and flangers is that flangers use less delay and have a feedback Parameter that sends a portion of the effected signal back to the input of the Mod[...]

When do I use Chorus? The Chorus effect is so vast in applications, an easier question would probably be “When can’t I use a Chorus. When playing the Blues, turn the Speed and Depth parameters up to produce an almost Leslie-Type effect When trying to obtain “Big” rock guitar tone, use the Chorus to thicken-up and add depth to your sound.And[...]

Pan A - B Controls [...]

Rotary Speaker Simulator The Rotary Speaker Simulator allows you to emulate the classic rotating speaker sound, without the chiropractic problems that come with moving bulky speaker cabinets. The Rotary speaker is directly responsible for some of the most unique sounds in music. The applications for this effect are so diverse, it can be used to ach[...]

Tremolo and Auto-Panner Look out, because the popular Tremolo and Auto panner effects of the 50’s and 60’s are back with a vengeance. These effects that revolution- ized “Surf-Style” music can be heard all over the air waves in the 90’s. Tremolos and auto panners are similar to one another in that they both use an LFO to modulate input le[...]

WvFrm Selects which waveform the LFO follows. Options for this control include sine, triangle, SP1 (Special 1), and SP2 (Special 2). The sine wave setting is probably the most easily recognized, but the smooth response of the triangle wave or the intensity of SP1 or SP2 typically produce better results. See figure 4-2 on page 41. Pitch Shifters and[...]

Shft E - H See Shift A - B. Dtn E - H See Dtn A - B. Key Sets the diatonic key for the harmonies. If the song you are playing is in the key of G Major, you would select G for the scale. Scale Sets the scale type for the Harmony you want to hear. Scale types include: Major, Minor, Harmonic Minor, Melodic Minor. Dorian, Mixolydian, Lydian, Lydian Aug[...]

When do I use a detuner? The detuner falls into the same guidelines as the chorus effect. It works with just about everything; It is ideal for thickening up a rhythm guitar track. Remember to experiment with the delay parameters if you are looking for a wider detuning sound. Adding 30-60 ms of delay to the detuner's voices that are panned hard[...]

the output. The Millennium delays have a feedback meter that is used to send a portion of the delayed signal back to the input to be re- recorded along with new source material. The feedback setting determines how long the delay repeats take to decay to inaudibility. When do I use delay? When you’re the lone guitarist in a band, the Delay can be [...]
