12 UL TRA TWIN GX210 34 The LINE OUT provides the ULTRATWIN ’ s audio signal in stereo, for example, to send it to a recording machine. This output is frequency-corrected (Speaker Emulation). 35 The AUX IN allows you to feed in additional stereo signals, for example, to play with a drum computer or some sort of playback.
13 UL TRA TWIN GX210 Fig. 2.1: Standard setup 2.2 Expanded setup with MIDI foot controller, playback source and mixing console To use your ULTRATWIN for advanced applications, please consider the following suggestions. Of course, the expanded configuration suggested in fig.
14 UL TRA TWIN GX210 2.3 Master/slave setup 2.3.1 The ULTRATWIN GX210 as master The SLAVE IN jacks can also be used to amplify the ULTRATWIN ’ s signal with an additional power amp. Use two conventional instrument cables (one conductor plus shielding) having a mono 1/4" plug on the one end, and a stereo 1/4" plug on the other.
15 UL TRA TWIN GX210 3.1 Description of effects 01-02 Spring Reverb: Even a guitar amp with a digital multi-effects processor should allow you to use a spring reverb. This algorithm emulates the typical sound of a spring reverb, as it is known from numerous guitar amps.
16 UL TRA TWIN GX210 15-16 Ambience: The reverb of any room consists of so-called “ early reflections ” and the reverb “ tail ” . This algorithm emulates the first 15 of these early reflections.

20 UL TRA TWIN GX210 67-68 Rotary Speaker: This is the quintessential simulation of the classical organ effect normally produced by speakers that rotate at slow/fast speed in a bulky and extremely heavy speaker cabinet. This effect uses the physical principle known as Doppler effect.
21 UL TRA TWIN GX210 75-81 Pitch Shifter: This effect shifts the pitch of the input signal and can be used to produce musical intervals and harmonies or simply to widen a single voice. Heavy detuning by several semi-tones up creates a Mickey-Mouse-type effect.
22 UL TRA TWIN GX210 90-91 Compressor: Often, the signal level exceeds the headroom of signal-processing devices and therefore needs to be limited in its dynamic range, so as to avoid distortion.
23 UL TRA TWIN GX210 97-99 Speaker Cabinet: This algorithm emulates three different types of speaker cabinets. Additionally, you can shift the speaker ’ s main resonance peak. Various degrees of resonance emphasis allow you to emulate different speaker characteristics.
24 UL TRA TWIN GX210 Additionally, you can deactivate the LFO in LFO-controlled modulation effects, and modulate these effects with MIDI controller #15. To activate this MIDI controller, you need to set the LFO speed to zero, either on the ULTRATWIN or by means of the corresponding MIDI controller.
