21: SPACE-D

This is a multiple chorus that applies two-phase modulation in stereo. It gives no impression of modulation, but produces a 

transparent chorus effect.

Explanation

Pre Delay

0.0–100 msec

Adjusts the delay time from the direct sound until the chorus sound is heard.

Rate BPM Sync

OFF, ON

OFF: Rate specified as numerical value 

ON: Rate specified as note value

[Knob 1]

Rate

0–127, note

Frequency of modulation

[Knob 2]

Depth

0–127

Depth of modulation

Phase

0–180 deg

Spatial spread of the sound

Wet Low Gain

-15–+15 dB

Amount of boost/cut for the effect sound’s lower range

Wet High Gain

-15–+15 dB

Amount of boost/cut for the effect sound’s upper range

[Knob 3]

Balance

D100:0W–D0:100W

Volume balance between the direct sound (D) and the chorus sound (W)

Level

0–127

Output Level

22: PHASER

A phase-shifted sound is added to the original sound and modulated.

Mode

4-STAGE, 8-STAGE,

Number of stages in the phaser

[Knob 2]

Manual

0–127

Adjusts the basic frequency from which the sound will be modulated.

Rate BPM Sync

OFF, ON

OFF: Rate specified as numerical value 

ON: Rate specified as note value

[Knob 1]

Rate

Depth of modulation

Polarity

INVERSE, SYNCHRO

Selects whether the left and right phase of the modulation will be the same or the 

opposite.
INVERSE: The left and right phase will be opposite. When using a mono source, 

this spreads the sound. 

SYNCHRO: The left and right phase will be the same. Select this when inputting a 

stereo source.

-15–+15 dB

Amount of boost/cut for the effect sound’s lower range

Wet High Gain

-15–+15 dB

Amount of boost/cut for the effect sound’s upper range
