Operating the SLOER

The SLOER offers a wide range of ambient reverb textures through its intuitive controls. Experiment with each setting to discover its full potential.

Yankı Modları

The Mod rotary dial selects the core reverb algorithm:

• Dream (~): A lush, ethereal reverb that can be latched into an infinite pad by holding the Sustain footswitch. Ideal for ambient textures and drones.
• Light (^): Adds a shimmering high octave to the reverb trail, creating bright, angelic soundscapes.
• Rain (ˇ): Features a unique delay tap diffusion, creating a scattered, evolving reverb that can sound like raindrops or granular textures.
• Dark (π): Introduces a lower octave to the reverb, resulting in deep, brooding, and atmospheric sounds.
• Rise (πˇ): An ambient swell reverb that builds in volume over time, perfect for creating dramatic intros or transitions.

Modulation Wave Shapes (Secondary Function)

Each reverb mode has a secondary function accessible by holding down the Baypas footswitch and turning the Mod rotary dial. This allows you to select one of five different wave shapes for the modulation on the reverb trail:

• Sinüs Dalgası: Smooth, gentle modulation.
• Triangle Wave: Even, symmetrical modulation.
• Sawtooth Wave: Asymmetrical, ramp-up or ramp-down modulation.
• Kare Dalga: Abrupt, on/off modulation.
• Rastgele Dalga: Unpredictable, evolving modulation.

The Derinlik knob controls the intensity of this modulation.
