Effects

The Effects row has several effects to choose from: Off, Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Vibrato, Octavider, SynthTalk™, Envelope Filter, Pitch, Detune, and Whammy™. When the Effects row is selected, the following settings apply:

  • Type – Select the type of effect used in the EFFECTS module.
  • Amount – Controls different aspects of effects depending on the type selected. Level – Controls Level, Depth, or Mix depending on type selected.
  • Note: Only one of the effects in this row can be used at a time.
    • Chorus A chorus adds a short delay to your signal. The delayed signal is modulated in and out of tune and mixed back with the original signal to create a thicker sound.
    • Amount – Rotate the GAIN knob to simultaneously adjust the effect’s speed and depth (1-99).
    • Effect Level – Rotate the MASTER LEVEL knob to adjust the chorus of the level (1-99).

Flanger

A flanger uses the same principle as a chorus but uses a shorter delay time and adds regeneration (repeats) to the modulating delay. This results in an exaggerated up-and-down sweeping motion of the effect.

  • Amount – Rotate the GAIN knob to simultaneously adjust the effect’s speed and depth (1-99).
  • Effect Level – Rotate the MASTER LEVEL knob to adjust the flanger level (1-99).

Phaser

A phaser splits the incoming signal, and changes the phasing of the signal. The signal is then taken in and out of phase and mixed back in with the original signal. As the phasing changes, different frequencies get cancelled resulting in a warm twisting sound.

  • Amount – Rotate the GAIN knob to simultaneously adjust the phaser speed and depth (1-99).
  • Effect Level – Rotate the MASTER LEVEL knob to adjust the phaser level (1-99).

Envelope Filter

The Envelope Filter is a dynamic Wah effect that alters your sound based on how hard you play.

  • Amount – Rotate the GAIN knob to adjust the amount of input signal (sensitivity) required to trigger the Envelope effect (1-99).
  • Effect Level – Rotate the MASTER LEVEL knob to adjust the mix of the Envelope effect (0-99).

Vibrato

A vibrato effect modulates the pitch of the incoming signal at an even rate.

  • Amount – Rotate the GAIN knob to adjust the speed at which the pitch modu- \lates (1-99).
  • Effect Level – Rotate the MASTER LEVEL knob to adjust the depth of the modulation (0-99).

Octavider

The Octavider effect creates a smooth tracking unison note one octave below the note being played.

  • Amount – Has no function when Octavider is used.
  • Effect Level – Rotate the MASTER LEVEL knob to adjust the level of the Octavider effect (0-99).

SynthTalk™

SynthTalk™ is exclusive to DigiTech. It appears to make your bass speak based upon the attack or how hard you strike the strings.

  • Amount – Rotate the GAIN knob to select one of the ten different synth voices (Vox 1- Vox 10).
  • Effect Level – Rotate the MASTER LEVEL knob to adjust the the input signal (sensitivity) required to trigger SynthTalk™ (0-99).

Pitch Shift

The pitch shifting copies the incoming signal, shifts the pitch of the copy to a different note, and then mixes it back with the original signal. This gives the illusion that two basses are playing different notes at the same time.

  • Amount – Rotate the GAIN knob to select the interval of the shifted pitch (+/-12 semitones).
  • Effect Level – Rotate the MASTER LEVEL knob to control the mix level of the shifted pitch (0-99).

Detune

A detuner makes a copy of the original signal, takes the copied signal slightly out of tune, and mixes the two signals back together. This gives the illusion that two guitars are playing the same part together.

  • Amount – Rotate the GAIN knob to adjust the amount of detune (+/-24 cents).
  • Effect Level – Rotate the MASTER LEVEL knob to control the mix of the detuned note (0-99).

Whammy™

Whammy is an effect that uses an Expression Pedal to bend the pitch of the incoming signal or add a bendable harmony with the original signal. As the pedal is moved, the note is bent either up or down.

  • Amount – Rotate the GAIN knob to select the type of pitch bend.

Whammy (no Dry Signal)

  • 1OCTUP (1 octave above)
  • 2OCTUP (2 octaves above)
  • 2NDDWN (a second below)
  • REV2ND (a second below-reversed pedal action)
  • 4THDWN (a fourth below)
  • 1OCTDN (an octave below)
  • 2OCTDN (2 octaves below)
  • DIVBOM (Dive Bomb)

Harmony Bends (Dry Signal Added)

  • M3>MA3 (a minor third to a Major third)
  • 2NDMA3 (a second above to a Major third above)
  • 3RD4TH (a third above to a fourth above)
  • 4TH5TH (a fourth above to a fifth above)
  • 5THOCT (a fifth above to an octave above)
  • HOCTUP (one octave above)
  • HOCTDN (one octave down)

Effect Level – Rotate the MASTER LEVEL knob to adjust the volume of the Whammy (0-99).

Delay

Delay records a portion of the incoming signal, and plays it back a short time later.The recording can repeat just once or several times.

  • Type/Level – Rotate the AMP TYPE knob to select one of the following: Mono 1-9,
  • Analog 1-9, and Ping Pong 1-9, and Spread 1-9. (1-9 are varying delay levels).

Reverb Type – Rotate the AMP TYPE knob to select 1 of 10 reverb effects, or Off.

  • REV OF = Reverb Off
  • STUDIO = Studio
  • ROOM = Wood Room
  • CLUB = Club
