Compressor
Compressor is an effect commonly used to limit and
compress the dynamics (softness/loudness) of an audio
signal. When used with gain to boost the overall level, this
creates a more powerful, more consistently high-level
sound. Compression can be used to increase sustain for
electric guitar, smooth out the volume of a vocal, or bring a
drum kit or rhythm pattern further up-front in the mix.
Wah
This Effect cyclically modulates the tone brightness (cutoff
frequency of a filter). Auto Wah modulates the tone via
LFO, Touch Wah modulates the tone via volume (note on
velocity) and Pedal Wah modulates the tone the pedal
control.
Lo-Fi
This Effect intentionally degrades the audio quality of the
input signal via several methods such as lowering the
sampling frequency.
Tech
This Effect changes the tonal characteristics radically by
using a filter and modulation.
Vocoder
The Vocoder effect does not belong to any category.
When you want to use this effect, set the INSERTION
CONNECT parameter in the Effect Connect display
(page 66) to “ins L.”
Misc
This category includes the other effect types.
VCM is a technology that authentically models the
elements in analog circuitry (such as resistors and
capacitors). Effect types using the VCM technology
produce the uniquely warm characteristics of vintage
processing gear.
VCM Compressor 376
This effect emulates the characteristics of analog
compressors, used as standard effects in recording
studios. It frames and thickens the sound, and is suitable
for drum and bass sounds.
VCM Equalizer 501
This effect emulates the characteristics of analog
equalizers used in the 1970s, recreating a warm, high-
quality flanger effect.
