vidually.
: Ratio, : Threshold [dB], : Gain Adjust [dB]
This parameter sets the signal compression “Ratio”. Compression is
applied only when the signal level exceeds the “Threshold” value.
In the case of the limiter, applying compression will lower the over-
all level, so you should use “Gain Adjust” to make adjustments.

all level, so you should use “Gain Adjust” to make adjustments.
: Attack, : Release
These parameters set the attack time and release time. A higher
attack time will cause the compression to be applied more slowly.
attack time will cause the compression to be applied more slowly.
: Side PEQ Insert, : Side PEQ Cutoff [Hz], : Q, : Gain [dB]
These parameters are used to set the EQ applied to the trigger sig-
nal.
The Limiter determines whether the compression is applied or not,
based on the post-EQ trigger signal. Setting the equalizer allows you
to set the Limiter to respond to any frequency band.

: Trigger Monitor
Setting this parameter “On” will cause the trigger signal to be out-
put, instead of the effect sound. Use this parameter to check the trig-
ger signal with EQ applied.

ger signal with EQ applied.
Usually, set this to “Off.”
23: DY3: Multiband Limiter
This effect applies the Limiter to the low range, mid range, and
high range of the input signal. You can control dynamics for
each range to adjust the sound pressure of the low range, mid
range, and high range in a different way from the EQ.
high range of the input signal. You can control dynamics for
each range to adjust the sound pressure of the low range, mid
range, and high range in a different way from the EQ.
: Low Offset [dB], : Mid Offset [dB], : High Offset [dB]
These parameters set the gain of the trigger signal.
For example, if you do not want to apply compression to the high
range, reduce the “High Offset” value down below the “Threshold”
level. In this way, the high range limiter will not respond, and com-
pression will not be applied.
range, reduce the “High Offset” value down below the “Threshold”
level. In this way, the high range limiter will not respond, and com-
pression will not be applied.
24: DY4: St.Gate
(Stereo Gate)
This effect mutes the input signal if its level is lower than the
specified level. It also reverses the on and off operation of the
gate, and uses Note On and Off messages to turn the gate on
and off.
specified level. It also reverses the on and off operation of the
gate, and uses Note On and Off messages to turn the gate on
and off.
With “Envelope Select” = “L/R Mix,” the left and right channel sig-
nal mixture will trigger the gate on/off. When “L Only” or “R
Only
nal mixture will trigger the gate on/off. When “L Only” or “R
Only
” is selected, the gate is controlled by either of the channel sig-
nals.
: Polarity
This parameter reverses the Gate on/off operation. With a negative
value, the gate is closed when the input signal level exceeds the
Threshold.

Threshold.
: Attack, : Release
The Attack and Release parameters set the Gate attack time and
release time.

: Delay Time
This parameter sets the delay time of the Gate input. If the sound
has a very fast attack, increase the delay time so that the signal will
be input after the Gate is opened.

be input after the Gate is opened.
25: DY5: St.Exciter/Enhancer
(Stereo Exciter/Enhancer)
This effect is a combination of the Exciter, which adds a punch
to the sound and the Enhancer, which adds spread and pres-
ence.

: Exciter Blend
This parameter sets the depth (intensity) of the Exciter effect. Posi-
tive values give a frequency pattern (to be emphasized) different
from negative values.

: Emphatic Point
This parameter sets the frequency to be emphasized. Higher values
will emphasize lower frequencies.
will emphasize lower frequencies.
: Enhancer Dly L [msec], : Enhancer Dly R [msec]
These parameters set the delay time for the Enhancer left and right
channel. Specifying a slightly different delay time for the left and
right channel will add a stereo image, depth, and width to the
sound.

26: DY6: St.Decimator
(Stereo Decimator)
This effect creates a rough sound like a cheap sampler by lower-
ing the sampling frequency and data bit length. You can also
simulate noise unique to a sampler (aliasing).
ing the sampling frequency and data bit length. You can also
simulate noise unique to a sampler (aliasing).
: Pre LPF
If a sampler with a very low sampling frequency receives very high-
pitched sound that could not be heard during playback, it could
generate pitch noise that is unrelated to the original sound. Set “Pre
LPF” to “On” to prevent this noise from being generated.
If you set the “Sampling Frequency” to about “3kHz” and set “Pre
LPF” to “Off,” you can create a sound like a ring modulator.
