Name | Function | |
---|---|---|
1 | [MEMORY] button | Switches between or saves memories (MANUAL, 1–4). The currently selected memory number is shown by the MANUAL and MEMORY 1–4 indicators. When using an external MIDI device to select memories 5–127, the indicators all remain dark. |
2 | [INPUT] button | Use this to select the device that’s connected to INPUT. GUITAR: Use this when connecting a guitar or bass guitar. LINE: Use this when connecting a synthesizer, mixer or similar equipment.
|
3 | [TAPE] button | Switches between the sounds of new tape and tape that’s been somewhat used. The tone and wavering of the sound change.
|
4 | [SATURATION] knob | Adjusts the compressed feel, which is caused by preamp distortion and the magnetic saturation of the tape. |
5 | [WOW & FLUTTER] knob | Adjusts the wavering in tape speed, which occurs due to the friction resistance of the tape mechanism, tape slippage and so on. Turning this clockwise produces more wavering. |
6 | [MODE SELECTOR] knob | Switches between modes 1–12. The combination of four different playback heads gives you 12 types of echo. |
7 | [BASS] knob | Adjusts the echo’s low frequency range. |
8 | [TREBLE] knob | Adjusts the echo’s high frequency range. |
9 | [REVERB VOL] knob | Adjusts the volume of the reverb. If the [ECHO VOL] knob is turned all the way counterclockwise, you can use only reverb. |
10 | [REPEAT RATE] knob | Adjusts the tape speed. The farther the knob is turned clockwise, the shorter the intervals become between echoes. The tone also changes along with the speed. |
11 | [INTENSITY] knob | Adjusts the echo volume (amount of feedback). Turn this all the way clockwise to make the effect oscillate. |
12 | [ECHO VOL] knob | Adjusts the echo volume. |
13 | [ON/OFF] switch | Press to turn the effect on/off. Long-press (WARP) to create stronger reverberations the longer you press, producing a dreamlike sound. |
14 | [MEMORY] switch | Press to switch between memories. Long-press to select whether reverb is used simultaneously with echo or not. |
15 | [TAP] switch | Press to set the REPEAT RATE according to the tempo of the song being played. Long-press (TWIST) to produce an aggressive sense of rotation that oscillates the echoed sound while you press. |
