RING MOD (Ring Modulator)
This creates a bell-like sound by ring-modulating the guitar sound
with the signal from the internal oscillator. The sound can be
unmusical and lack distinctive pitches.
with the signal from the internal oscillator. The sound can be
unmusical and lack distinctive pitches.
ANTI FB (Anti-feedback)
This prevents the acoustic feedback that can be produced by the
body resonances of a guitar.
body resonances of a guitar.
ADV.COMP (Advanced Compressor)
This is an effect that produces a long sustain by evening out the
volume level of the input signal. You can also use it as a limiter to
suppress only the sound peaks and prevent distortion.

Explanation
MODE
This selects the mode for the ring modulator.
NORMAL
This is a normal ring modulator.
INTELLIGENT
By ring-modulating the input signal, a bell
like sound is created. The intelligent ring
modulator changes the oscillation frequen-
cy according to the pitch of the input sound
and therefore produces a sound with the
sense of pitch, which is quite different from
Normal. This effect does not give a satisfac-
tory result if the pitch of the guitar sound is
not correctly detected. So, you must use sin-
gle notes, not chords.
