IFX Parameters
74
15: Ring Modulator
This is an eect that applies amplitude modulation (AM) to the
input signal, producing bell-like sounds. You can also change the
modulation frequency in response to changes in the volume of the
sound sent into the eect.

Parameter Value Explanation
Frequency 0–127
Adjusts the frequency at which
modulation is applied.
Sens 0–127
Adjusts the amount of frequency
modulation applied.
Polarity
Determines whether the frequency modulation moves
towards higher frequencies or lower frequencies.
UP Higher frequencies
DOWN Lower frequencies
Low Gain -15–+15 dB Gain of the low frequency range
High Gain -15–+15 dB Gain of the high frequency range
Balance
D100:0W–
D0:100W
Volume balance between the direct
sound (D) and the eect sound (W)
Level 0–127 Output level
16: Step Ring Modulator
This is a ring modulator that uses a 16-step sequence to vary the
frequency at which modulation is applied.
