Linking Effects. Zoom Tri Metal TM-01, G2.1NU, G21U, G2.1u

Effect Types and Parameters

RG rG RING MODULATOR

This effect produces a metallic ringing sound. Adjusting the FREQUENCY parameter results in a drastic change of sound character.

POSITION bF, AF

Selects the connection position of the

WAH/EFX module. Available settings are "bF" (before DRIVE module) and

"AF" (after EQ/EXTRA EQ module).

FREQUENCY

1 – 50

Adjusts the frequency that is used for modulation.

MIX

0 – 98, 1.0

Adjusts the level of the effect sound mixed to the original sound.

SL

SL SLOW ATTACK

This effect reduces the attack rate of the sound, resulting in a violin playing style sound.

CURVE

0 – 10

POSITION bF, AF

Selects the connection position of the

WAH/EFX module. Available settings are "bF" (before DRIVE module) and

"AF" (after EQ/EXTRA EQ module).

PV

PV PEDAL VX

Simulates a vintage pedal wah sound.

TIME

1 – 50

Adjusts the attack time. Adjusts the attack volume change curve.

POSITION bF, AF

Selects the connection position of the

WAH/EFX module. Available settings are "bF" (before DRIVE module) and

"AF" (after EQ/EXTRA EQ module).

PB

Pb PEDAL BABY

Simulates a vintage pedal wah sound.

POSITION bF, AF

Selects the connection position of the

WAH/EFX module. Available settings are "bF" (before DRIVE module) and

"AF" (after EQ/EXTRA EQ module).

FREQUENCY

1 – 50

Adjusts the frequency that is emphasized. When no expression pedal is used, the effect is the same as with a half-raised pedal.

FREQUENCY

1 – 50

Adjusts the frequency that is emphasized. When no expression pedal is used, the effect is the same as with a half-raised pedal.

LEVEL

2 – 98, 1.0

Adjusts the signal level after passing the module.

LEVEL

2 – 98, 1.0

Adjusts the signal level after passing the module.

ZNR

ZNR (ZOOM Noise Reduction) module

NR nr

This module serves for reducing noise during playing pauses. It offers a choice between noise reduction (reduction of noise components) and noise gate (muting during pauses).

ZNR (ZOOM Noise Reduction)

ZOOM original noise reduction which reduces noise in playing pauses without affecting the overall tone.

GT

Gt GATE

This is a noise gate which cuts off the sound during playing pauses.

DG dG DIRTY GATE

This is a vintage type gate with special closing characteristics.

All above effect types have the same parameters.

THRESHOLD

1 – 16

Adjusts the sensitivity. For maximum noise reduction, set the value as high as possible without causing the sound to decay unnaturally.

Effect Types and Parameters

DRIVE

DRIVE module

This module provides 16 types of distortion and an acoustic simulator. Each effect type of the module has two modeling algorithms (for live performance and direct recording).

These algorithms are switched automatically according to the on/off condition of the

CABINET & MIC effect ( → p. 25).
