External Effects

We are convinced that the basic sound of the Fame
GX35R will suit the demands of most guitar players. 
Although, the usage of external effects devices can 
provide a variety of new and interesting sounds.
These are divided into:

•  Level-related effects are: Compressor, Limiter or
 Noise 

Gate

•  Time-based effects are: Delay/Echo, Chorus or
 Flanger
•  Volume-based effects are: Tremolo, Auto-Volume or
 Pan
•  Filtering-related effects are: Equalizer, Phaser,
 

Rotary or Vibe

Due tho the fact that the GX35R does not feature a built-
in fx loop, all units must always be connected between 
instrument and amplifi er.

How to choose the right device

High-quality effects like a vibrato or time-based units like 
delays can round up the sound, when placed in front of the 
amplifi er. But the fi nal sound is depending on the choice of 
the specifi c unit.
A multieffects processor i.e. digitalizes the incoming 
signal by using an AD-converter and inverts it after 
adding several effects. Depending on the used model, 
the sound can be infl uenced in a negative way.

Expensive units contain very capable converters, which 
keep the signal in its original value and even improve the 
sound quality.

Analogue units will not harm the signal’s quality, but they 
are also limited and normally produce only one overall 
sound.
