Using the Freeze effect
This section explains how to use the “FREEZE” effect type, which provides the functionality
of a simple sampler. When this effect type is selected, you can perform operations on screen
to record (sample) and play back a sound.
NOTE
Effect types “FREEZE” and “HQ.PITCH” can be used only in rack 1, 3, 5, or 7.
NOTE
The bar in the EFFECT EDIT window reflects the current recording progress. When a fixed time
has elapsed, the buttons will automatically turn off.
You can adjust the parameters in the EFFECT EDIT window to make detailed settings for
recording time, the way in which recording will begin, and the way in which the sample will play
back. For details on the parameters, refer to the data list at the end of this manual.
The sampled content will be erased if you record another sample, change the effect, or turn off
the power to the CL unit.
EFFECT EDIT window (when FREEZE is selected)
If the “FREEZE” effect type is selected, a PLAY button, REC button, and progress bar will
appear in the special parameter field.

2 REC button

NOTE
As an alternative to switching the effect type, you can also recall settings that use the “FREEZE”
effect type from the effect library.
Using the Premium Rack
In addition to the graphic EQ and the internal effects, the CL series provides “Premium Rack”
processors that faithfully emulate carefully selected vintage analog processors as well as
newly developed processors. The Premium Rack employs VCM technology, which models
analog circuitry on a component level to faithfully reproduce and fine-tune amazing analog
sounds.
The Premium Rack offers six types of processors.
