“Others” Effects
Depending on your model of TI, there are different ways to access the Ring Modulator/Frequency Shifter:
Model Access
Virus TI2 Press EFFECTS SELECT (Lower Row) until the OTHERS
LED is brightly illuminated. If necessary, locate the
Frequency Shifter page of the EDIT FX menu by using the
PARAMETERS buttons.
Virus TI Press EFFECTS EDIT (Lower Row) twice. If necessary,
locate the Frequency Shifter page of the EDIT FX menu by
using the PARAMETERS < > buttons.
Virus TI Snow EDIT/SHIFT+EFFECTS, then locate the Frequency
Shifter page of the EDIT EFFECTS menu by using the
PARAMETERS < > buttons. It is listed after the Phaser
pages.
¦ Balance
-64 to +63: Balance between the carrier and modulator signals. For pure vocoder signal, set this value to
<0>.
Modulation destination “FilterBalance“.
¦ Mod Offset
-64 to +63: Centre frequency offset of the modulator bank relative to the carrier bank.
Modulation destination “Filter2Cutoff“.
¦ Carrier Attack
0 to 127: Attack time of the carrier’s own “envelope follower”. Together with Carrier Release, this is used to
smoothen the vocoded signal.
¦ Carrier Release
0 to 127: Release time of the carrier’s envelope follower. Together with Carrier Attack, this is used to
smoothen the vocoded signal.
¦ Spectral Balance
0 to 127: Balance between high and low frequencies in the vocoded signal. In effect, this parameter works
like a simple equalizer, determining the overall colour of the vocoder output. Higher values can improve the
clarity of speech.
Modulation destination “FilterEnvSlope”.
¦ Bands
1 to 32: The number of lter bands used. The higher this number, the higher the quality (e.g. speech be-
comes more intelligible). Lower values are better for robot voices etc..
Modulation destination “FilterEnvRelease”.
