MIDI Implementation
0106: High Pass Filter
This is a filter with an extremely sharp slope. The cutoff frequency can be varied cyclically.
0110: Overdrive
Creates a soft distortion similar to that produced by vacuum tube amplifiers.
0111: Distortion
Produces a more intense distortion than Overdrive. The parameters are the same as for
“Overdrive.”
0112: Overdrive2
This is an overdrive that provides heavy distortion.
0113: Distortion2
This is a distortion effect that provides heavy distortion. The parameters are the same as for
“Overdrive2.”
0107: Speaker Simulator
Simulates the speaker type and mic settings used to record the speaker sound.
Specifications of each Speaker Type
The speaker column indicates the diameter of each speaker unit (in inches) and the number
of units.
No Parameter Value Description
1 Filter Type 0 - 3 Lpf, Bpf, Hpf,
Notch
Filter type
Frequency range that will pass
through each filter
Lpf: Frequencies below the cutoff
Bpf: Frequencies in the region of the
cutoff
Hpf: Frequencies above the cutoff
Notch: Frequencies other than the
region of the cutoff
2 Filter Slope 0 - 2 -12, -24, -36 dB Amount of attenuation per octave
-36 dB: Extremely steep
-24 dB: Steep
-12 dB: Gentle
3 Filter Cutoff #1 0 - 127 0-127 Cutoff frequency of the filter
Increasing this value will raise the
cutoff frequency.
4 Filter
Resonance #2
0 - 100 0-100 Filter resonance level
Increasing this value will emphasize
the region near the cutoff frequency.
5 Filter Gain 0 - 12 0- +12 dB Amount of boost for the filter output
6 Modulation Sw 0 - 1 Off, On On/off switch for cyclic change
7 Modulation
Wave
0 - 4 Tri, Sqr, Sin,
Saw1, Saw2
How the cutoff frequency will be
modulated
Tri: Triangle wave
Sqr: Square wave
Sin: Sine wave
Saw1: Sawtooth wave (upward)
Saw2: Sawtooth wave (downward)
8 Rate Mode 0 - 1 Hz, note When this is set to “note,” the effect is
synchronized with the tempo.
9 Rate 1 - 127 0.05-10.00 Hz Rate of modulation (Hz)
10 Rate 0 - 21 note Rate of modulation (note)
11 Depth 0 - 127 0-127 Depth of modulation
12 Attack 0 - 127 0-127 Speed at which the cutoff frequency
will change
This is effective if Modulation Wave
is SQR, SAW1, or SAW2.
13 Level 0 - 127 0-127 Output level
No Parameter Value Description
1 Drive 0 - 127 0-127 Degree of distortion
Also changes the volume.
2 Amp Type #1 0 - 3 Small,
Built-In,
2-Stack,
3-Stack
Type of guitar amp
Small: small amp
Built-In: single-unit type amp
2-Stack: large double stack amp
3-Stack: large triple stack amp
3 Low Gain 0 - 30 -15- +15 dB Gain of the low range
4 High Gain 0 - 30 -15- +15 dB Gain of the high range
5 Pan 0 - 127 L64-63R Stereo location of the output sound
6 Level #2 0 - 127 0-127 Output Level
No Parameter Value Description
1 Drive 0 - 127 0-127 Degree of distortion
Also changes the volume.
2 Tone 0 - 127 0-127 Sound quality of the Overdrive effect
3 Amp Sw 0 - 1 Off, On Turns the Amp Simulator on/off.
4 Amp Type #1 0 - 3 Small,
Built-In,
2-Stack,
3-Stack
Type of guitar amp
Small: small amp
Built-In: single-unit type amp
2-Stack: large double stack amp
3-Stack: large triple stack amp
5 Low Gain 0 - 30 -15- +15 dB Gain of the low range
6 High Gain 0 - 30 -15- +15 dB Gain of the high range
7 Pan 0 - 127 L64-63R Stereo location of the output sound
8 Level #2 0 - 127 0-127 Output Level
No Parameter Value Description
1 Speaker Type
#1
0 - 15 (See the table.) Type of speaker
2 Mic Setting 0 - 2 1, 2, 3 Adjusts the location of the mic that is
recording the sound of the speaker.
This can be adjusted in three steps,
with the mic becoming more distant
in the order of 1, 2, and 3.
3 Mic Level 0 - 127 0-127 Volume of the microphone
4 Direct Level 0 - 127 0-127 Volume of the direct sound
5 Level #2 0 - 127 0-127 Output Level
