Effects List20: SLICERBy applying successive cuts to the sound, this effect turns aconventional sound into a sound that appears to be played as abacking phrase. This is especially effective when applied to sustaintypesounds.fig.MFX-20L inR inParameter Value DescriptionStep 01–16 L64–63R Level at each stepRate # 0.05–10.00Hz, noteRate at which the 16-step sequence willcycleAttack # 0–127 Speed at which the level changes betweenstepsInput SyncSwOFF, ON Specifies whether an input note willcause the sequence to resume from thefirst step of the sequence (ON) or not(OFF)Input SyncThreshold0–127 Volume at which an input note will bedetectedMode21: ROTARYThe Rotary effect simulates the sound of the rotary speakers oftenused with the electric organs of the past. Since the movement of thehigh range and low range rotors can be set independently, theunique type of modulation characteristic of these speakers can besimulated quite closely. This effect is most suitable for electric organPatches.fig.MFX-21LEGATO,SLASHSets the manner in which the volumechanges as one step progresses to thenext.LEGATO: The change in volume fromone step’s level to the next remainsunaltered. If the level of a followingstep is the same as the one precedingit, there is no change in volume.SLASH: The level is momentarily setto 0 before progressing to the level ofthe next step. This change in volumeoccurs even if the level of the followingstep is the same as the precedingstep.Shuffle # 0–127 Timing of volume changes in levels foreven-numbered steps (step 2, step 4, step6...).The higher the value, the later the beatprogresses.Level 0–127 Output levelL inR inParameter Value DescriptionSpeed # SLOW, FAST Simultaneously switch the rotationalspeed of the low frequencyrotor and high frequency rotor.SLOW: Slows down the rotationto the Slow Rate.FAST: Speeds up the rotationto the Fast Rate.Woofer SlowSpeed0.05–10.00 Hz Slow speed (SLOW) of the lowfrequency rotorWoofer FastSpeedSlicerSlicerRotaryL outR outL outR out0.05–10.00 Hz Fast speed (FAST) of the low frequencyrotorParameter Value DescriptionWooferAcceleration0–15 Adjusts the time it takes the lowfrequency rotor to reach the newlyselected speed when switchingfrom fast to slow (or slow tofast) speed.
