LFO

The [DEPTH] and [SPEED] sliders control modulation speed and intensity. In addition to typical LFO uses, you can create interesting sound effects using extreme settings. So if you want get back at your motorcycle-driving neighbors, try out the following example! (Some amplification may be required!)

EG

EG/FEG slider determines how much the Envelope affects Amplitude or Filter. The"zero" position (AEG) means the Envelope only affects Amplitude. Asthe slider is moved upwards, the more influence the Envelope has on the Filter. In the middle position the effect on Filter and Amplitude is the same.

The envelope (EG) is set by the ADSR principle (Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release) with four sliders. Again, the range of values is from 0 to 127.

FILTER

reface CS is equipped with a resonant low-pass Filter (18 db). The Cutoff slider adjusts the Filter from follow closed (0) to wide open (127) while the Resonance slider adds harmonics at the Cutoff point. The filter can even self-oscillate creating different kinds of synth sound.

EFFECT

The onboard effects processor features five effect types to add depth to your sound.
Use the Type slider to select the desired effect. Depth determines the effect's intensity (also known as "Wet/Dry"). The Phaser and Chorus/Flanger are powered by Virtual Circuitry Modeling (VCM) technology.

PORTAMENT

The reface CS Portamento slider has two functions. It controls the typical Portamento effect: switching reface to 8-note polyphonic to 1-note monophonic and controlling Portamento time in monophonic mode.

Drive

This Effect adds a Distortion matched to the current Voice.

Tremoro/Wah

In the "Tremolo" position, this is either a stereo pan effect or tremolo depending on the selected Voice. In the "Wah" position, the effect responds to how hard you play for a super-funky effect. "DEPTH" controls intensity while "RATE" controls the effect speed.

Chorus/Phaser

Well-known modulation effects that add depth, thickness and movement to the overall sound.

D.Delay/A.Delay

Two effects with different behavoirs. Digital generates precise repititions while Analog gives a "tape" like experience by changing delay time and pitch in real time.

Reverb

The last effect in the chain is a classic Reverb. Reverb is a single knob controlling both time and intensity.

Rotary Speed

Moving the lever up or down changes the setting between "FAST" (fast rotation), "SLOW" (slow rotation), "STOP" (no rotation), and "OFF" (no effect applied).

Vibrato/Chorus

This switch toggles between Vibrato/Chorus for different types of modulating effects. The Depth slidercontrols Vibrato and Chorus amount.

Percussion

Percussion features two footages for different sounds and a Length slider to control percussion decay.

Effect

reface YC features a Distortion effect for adding overdrive to the sound along with Reverb for adding "space" and depth to the sound.
