This produces a volume-swell effect (“violin-like” sound).
This simulates a fretless bass.
This is a synth sound that processes the bass input signal.
 
• Because of the need to analyze the pitch, chords (two or more sounds 
played simultaneously) cannot be played. Be sure to mute all the other 
strings and play only one note at a time.
• When you are to play the next string while a certain sound is still playing, 
mute the previous sound and then play the next one with a clear attack. If 
the unit cannot detect the attack, it may not sound correctly.
• The sensitivity may vary according to the bass’s TONE knob and pickup 
type.
 
SLOW GEAR
 
Parameter/

ing. When the value is set higher, the effect is 
obtained even with a weak picking.

0–100
Adjusts the time needed for the volume to 
reach its maximum from the moment you begin 
picking.
