Description
In this effect, a slightly detuned sound is
added to the original sound, giving the
sound greater breadth and fullness.
Turning the knob to the right increases the
rate and deepens the chorus effect.
This applies a boost effect to the original
sound. By turning SOLO on/off, you can vary
the volume and contour of your sound.
This adds sound lowered by an octave
to the original sound. Since you can play
chords even when using this effect, you can
use it to fatten the sound of your chordal
playing as well.
