Enhanced User Editability

Logical grouping of parameters, along with
the combination of encoders, buttons, LEDs
and an easily readable LED display, make
operating the FX2000 a breeze. You are free to
edit up to 7 parameters per preset, and then
save them for future use in the 100 provided
memory locations. And the FX2000 features
extensive MIDI capability, so you can integrate
it into your MIDI setup – and even save your
data via SysEx to protect all those incredible
presets you’ll be customizing!

Reverbs & Delays

Because it is one of the eects you will use all the time, the FX2000 provides 12 uniquely dierent
reverb programs, so you always have the ideal reverb no matter what your live performance or
studio calls for.

Standard Reverbs

Cathedral Dense, long reverb of a large cathedral – often used in solo instruments and vocals

Gold Plate Simulates the sound of plate reverberators – a classic for drums (snare) and vocals

Small Hall Simulates a small, lively (strongly reflecting) performance hall

Room Simulates the sound of reflections from the walls of a room

Studio Effectively createss the reverberation of a small to mid-sized room

Concert Recreates the sound reflection of a small theater or large hall

Stage Well suited for dissipating the sound of a keyboard or acoustic guitar

Spring Reverb Simulates the sound of the classic spring reverb

Ambience Reproduces the sound of a room impression without late reflections

Early Reflections Generates the clearly audible, initial reflections of a room

Specialty Reverb Selections

Gated Reverb Reverb is synthetically turned off after predetermined amount of time

Reverse Reverb Reverb envelope is reversed, slowly gets louder

Delay Selections

Stereo Delay Delay processed across entire stereo image

Tap e Echo Simulates classic tape echo devices, predates digital delays

Ping Pong Delay signal “bounced” from left to right at adjustable tempo

Much More than Just Reverb and Delay

The FX2000 has some of the best-sounding reverb and delay programs, but that’s not all. It also
provides exceptional modulation eects, such as chorus, anger and phaser – including special
variations, such as a musical pitch shifter, tremolo and even a rotating speaker simulation.

Modulation and Pitch Shifter FX

Stereo Flanger

Vintage Flanger Simulates guitar flanger stomp box

Jet Stream Flanger Simulates classic analog flanger

Stereo Chorus Combines a slightly detuned signal with the original

Analog Chorus Simulates guitar chorus stomp box

Vintage Chorus Simulates classic analog studio chorus

Ultra Chorus Creates sound of an 8-person chorus

Stereo Phaser Combines additional, phase-shifted signal with original

Vintage Phaser Simulates guitar phaser stomp box

Dual Phaser Processes the left and right channels separately

Leslie Simulates rotating speakers typically used on an organ – Slow or Fast

Pitch Shifter Creates harmonies with original signal, or replaces it with altered pitch

Vibrato Peak frequency of tone periodically and uniformly changed – Slow or Fast

Tremolo Volume of tone periodically and uniformly changed – Slow or Fast

Auto Panning Signal automatically sent from left to right, either once or multiple times

Originally generated by playback of two synchronized “reel to reel” tape decks with
finger rubbing flange of 1 take-up reel
