[. . . ] Warning For your protection, please read the following: Water and Moisture: Appliances should not be used near water (e. g. near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc. ) Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings. These symbols are internationally accepted symbols that warn of potential hazards with electrical products. The lightning flash means that there are dangerous voltages present within the unit. The exclamation point indicates that it is necessary for the user to refer to the owners manual. These symbols warn that there are no user serviceable parts inside the unit. [. . . ] FX: Lvl Dry: Lvl Balance Speed Depth Controls the signal input level fed to the Module. High settings of DEPTH combined with high settings of FDBCK produce dramatic, synth-like textures. Controls how much of the flanged signal is fed back to the input of the Module. Flangers are capable of both positive and negative feedback loops, so experiment to find the sound you like best. 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. Ranges from 0 to 60 milliseconds. FdBck WvFrm Dly A - B 30 RP21D User's Guide Out A - B Pan A - B Out L - R Adjusts the overall level of flange voice A or B. Ranges from Off to 100%. Section Two - Editing Functions Controls the stereo soundfield placement of flange voice A or B. Ranges from Off to 100%. Phasers The Phaser or "Phase Shifter" as it is sometimes called, is a classic effect from the 70's that uses phase cancellation to create a warm sweeping effect. The effect is created by making a copy of a signal and moving it in and out of phase while mixing it with the original signal. As it moves, different frequencies are cancelled out creating a smooth curling sound. There is also a feedback control that sends the shifting signal back into the phaser's input. A great example of this can be heard most when you listen to music of the 70's. A Phaser is a great effect to use when playing clean and funky rhythms. Phaser Parameters: Dry: Lvl Controls the level of the dry (uneffected) signal. Balance Speed Depth Controls the positioning of the dry signal in the stereo soundfield. High settings of DEPTH combined with high settings of FDBCK produce dramatic, synth-like textures. Controls how much of the flanged signal is fed back to the input of the Module. The FDBACK Parameter is what gives phasers their distinctive resonating sound. 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. Ranges from Off to 100%. FdBck WvFrm Out A - B Pan A - B Out L - R Pedal Phaser The Pedal phaser is a phaser that can be controlled by an expression pedal to control the depth and feedback of the effect Pedal Phaser Parameters FX and Dry Level Controls the FX and Dry level of the Pedal Phaser module.
