Get even more mind-expanding power for your keyboard, bass, guitar or vocals with the VIRTUALIZER 3D FX2000 Effects Processor. This amazing rack unit has 71 incredible new algorithms, including true studio-grade stereo and 3D effects that will add a head-spinning new dimension to your sound, both live and in the studio. The FX2000 employs BEHRINGER RSM (Real Sound Modeling) technology to simulate acoustic environments with stunning accuracy. Effects options include powerful modulation, amp simulation, distortion and special effects,

as well as effective dynamic and psychoacoustics processing.

Performance is further enhanced through user-addressable high and low EQ and wave-adaptive VIRTUAL ROOM reverb algorithms. The FX2000 has a total of 200 presets (100 factory / 100 user) that can be recalled or switched via an optional MIDI foot controller, such as our FCB1010.

Reverbs & Delays

Because it is one of the most desired effects, the FX2000 provides 12 different reverb programs, so you always have the ideal reverb for your live performance or studio needs.

Reverbs include:

CATHEDRAL

GOLD PLATE

SMALL HALL

ROOM

STUDIO

CONCERT

STAGE

SPRING REVERB

AMBIENCE

EARLY REFLECTIONS

Specialty reverbs include:

GATED REVERB – reverb is synthetically turned off after a predetermined amount of time

REVERSE REVERB – reverb envelope is reversed—it slowly gets louder

Delays include:

STEREO DELAY – delay is processed across the entire stereo image

TAPE ECHO – simulates classic tape echo devices, pre-dating the advent of digital delays

PING PONG – delay signal is “bounced” from left to right at an adjustable tempo

Much More than Just Reverb and Delay

The FX2000 has some of the bestsounding reverb and delay programs, but that’s not all. It also provides excellent modulation effects (such as chorus, flanger and phaser), including special variations like musical pitch shifter, tremolo and even a leslie simulation.

Modulation and Pitch Shifter FX:

STEREO FLANGER – originally generated by playing back two synchronized “reel to reel” tape recorders with a finger rubbing on the flange of one of the take-up reels

VINTAGE FLANGER – simulates a guitar flanger stomp box

JET STREAM FLANGER – sounds like a classic analog flanger

STEREO CHORUS – combines a slightly detuned signal with the original

ANALOG CHORUS – simulates a guitar chorus stomp box

VINTAGE CHORUS – imitates a classic analog studio chorus

ULTRA CHORUS – creates the sound of an eight-person chorus

STEREO PHASER – combines a second, phase-shifted signal to the original

VINTAGE PHASER – represents a guitar phaser stomp box

DUAL PHASER – processes the left and right channels separately

LESLIE – simulation of the rotating speakers typically used on an organ – Slow or Fast

PITCH SHIFTER – changes the pitch of the original signal – can be used to create harmonies with the original signal or replace it entirely with the altered pitch. Choices include stereo, two and three vocal pitch shifter

VIBRATO – the peak frequency of the tone is periodically and uniformly changed (quickly or slowly)

TREMOLO – common vintage guitar amplifier effect – a fast or slow periodic variation in volume

AUTO PANNING – signal is automatically sent from one side of the stereo image to the other, either once or multiple times

Dynamic FX:

COMPRESSOR – reduces the dynamic range of the signal, maintains consistent signal level and thus avoids distortion associated with input levels

EXPANDER – effectively broadens the dynamic range of source signals while reducing background noise

GATE – this noise gate algorithm helps to reduce background clutter by setting a specific threshold level which mutes all surrounding noise below this threshold. Particularly effective on drum mics and vocals

ANALOG COMPRESSOR/LIMITER – similar to COMPRESSOR but with Limiting functionality

Page 2 of 4

ULTRAMIZER – analyses incoming signal and automatically applies compression across two independent frequency bands

DENOISER – eliminates or reduces noise and other interference

DE-ESSER – reduces or removes sibilance (Ssss sound) from signal

WAVE DESIGNER – allows you to influence the envelope by adjusting Attack and Release of the signal

Psychoacoustic FX:

EXCITER – adds artificially generated overtones to the original signal, increasing presence and perceived loudness without significant increase in signal level

ENHANCER – a dynamic equalizer which brings more clarity and a better stereo locating to your sound, similar to the effect of an exciter
