XOVER FREQ
This chorus eect outputs the same sound from both the L and R channels. This stereo chorus uses spatial synthesis, with the direct sound output to the L channel and the eect sound output to the R channel. This is a two-phase stereo chorus eect that adds dierent chorus sounds to the L and R channels. The frequency bands are divided to produce two dierent choruses, one for low frequencies and one for higher frequencies. This makes the chorus sound more natural.
Adjusts the time needed for the eect sound to be output after the direct sound has been output. Produces a deeper sense of modulation.

This eect adds reverberation to the sound.
Type Explanation
PLATE
ROOM
HALL
SPRING This simulates the sound of a guitar amp’s built-in spring reverb.
MODULATE
Simulates plate reverberation (a reverb unit that uses the vibration of a metallic plate). Provides a metallic sound with a distinct upper range. Simulates the reverberation in a small room. Provides warm reverberations. Simulates the reverberation in a concert hall. Provides clear and spacious reverberations.
This reverb adds the wavering sound found in hall reverb to provide an extremely pleasant reverb sound.
* This is disabled when using types other than SPRING and the DELAY/
REVERB knob is set to “SPRING”.

DUAL CUBE LX Eect Parameter List

NS (NOISE SUPPRESSOR)

This eect reduces the noise and hum picked up by guitar pickups. Since it suppresses the noise in synchronization with the envelope of the guitar sound (the way in which the guitar sound decays over time), it has very little eect on the guitar sound, and does not harm the natural character of the sound.
Parameter Value Explanation
ON/OFF OFF, ON Turns this eect on/o.
Adjust this parameter as appropriate for the volume of the noise. If the noise level is high, a higher setting is appropriate. If the noise level is
THRESHOLD 0–100
RELEASE 0–100
low, a lower setting is appropriate.
* High settings for the threshold parameter may
result in there being no sound when you play
with your guitar volume turned down. Adjusts the time from when the noise suppressor begins to function until the noise level reaches “0”.

PEDAL WAH

Use an EV-1-WL wireless MIDI expression pedal (sold separately) to control the wah eect in real time.

TYPE
PEDAL POS (PEDAL POSITION)
PEDAL MIN 0–100
PEDAL MAX 0–100
EFFECT LEVEL 0–100 Adjusts the volume of the eect sound. DIRECT MIX 0–100 Adjusts the volume of the direct sound.
LIGHT WAH
7STRING WAH
RESO WAH
0–100
This models the sound of the CRY BABY wah pedal popular in the ’70s.
This wah has a rened sound with no unusual characteristics. This expanded wah features a variable range compatible with seven-string and baritone guitars. This completely original eect enhances the characteristic resonances produced by analog synth lters. Adjusts the position of the wah pedal.
* This parameter is used after it’s been assigned
to an EXP pedal or similar controller. Selects the tone produced when the heel of the pedal is depressed. Selects the tone produced when the toe of the pedal is depressed.

EV-1-WL Connection Guide

This guide explains how you can use BLE MIDI to wirelessly pair (connect) the EV-1-WL and DUAL CUBE LX.
* The Bluetooth Audio MIDI Dual Adaptor (BT-DUAL, sold separately) is needed when wirelessly pairing the EV-1-WL with the DUAL CUBE LX.
See the Owner’s Manual for how to attach the adaptor.
What is “BLE MIDI”?
“BLE MIDI” is the technology used to transmit and receive MIDI messages wirelessly via Bluetooth® LE.
This is ocially known as “MIDI over Bluetooth Low Energy”.
