VIRTUALIZER 3D FX2000
Get even more mind-expanding power for your keyboard, bass, guitar or vocals with the VIRTUALIZER 3D FX2000 effects processor. This amazing rack-mountable FX unit has 71 incredible algorithms, including true studio-grade stereo and 3D effects that will add a head-spinning new dimension to your sound, both live and in the studio. The FX2000 uses our RSM (Real Sound Modeling) technology to simulate acoustic environments with stunning accuracy. Effects options include powerful modulation, amp simulation, distortion and special effects, as well as effective dynamic and psychoacoustics processing. Performance is further enhanced through user-addressable high and low EQ and wave-adaptive Virtual Room reverbs.
Enhanced User Editability
Logical grouping of parameters, along with the combination of encoders, buttons, LEDs and an easily readable LED display, make operating the FX2000 a breeze. You are free to edit up to 7 parameters per preset, and then save them for future use in the 100 provided memory locations. And the FX2000 features extensive MIDI capability, so you can integrate it into your MIDI setup – and even save your data via SysEx to protect all those incredible presets you’ll be customizing!
Reverbs & Delays
Because it is one of the effects you will use all the time, the FX2000 provides 12 uniquely different reverb programs, so you always have the ideal reverb no matter what your live performance or studio calls for.
| Standard Reverbs | |
| Cathedral | Dense, long reverb of a large cathedral – often used on solo instruments and vocals |
| Gold Plate | Simulates the sound of plate reverberators – a classic for drums (snare) and vocals |
| Small Hall | Simulates a small, lively (strongly reflecting) performance hall |
| Room | Simulates the sound of reflections from the walls of a room |
| Studio | Effectively creates the reverberation of a small to mid-sized room |
| Concert | Recreates the sound reflection of a small theater or large hall |
| Stage | Well suited for dissipating the sound of a keyboard or acoustic guitar |
| Spring Reverb | Simulates the sound of the classic spring reverb |
| Ambience | Reproduces the sound of a room impression without late reflections |
| Early Reflections | Generates the clearly audible, initial reflections of a room |
| Specialty Reverb Selections | |
| Gated Reverb | Reverb is synthetically turned off after predetermined amount of time |
| Reverse Reverb | Reverb envelope is reversed, slowly gets louder |
| Delay Selections | |
| Stereo Delay | Delay processed across entire stereo image |
| Tape Echo | Simulates classic tape echo devices, predates digital delays |
| Ping Pong | Delay signal “bounced” from left to right at adjustable tempo |
Much More than Just Reverb and Delay
The FX2000 has some of the best-sounding reverb and delay programs, but that’s not all. It also provides exceptional modulation effects, such as chorus, flanger and phaser – including special variations, such as a musical pitch shifter, tremolo and even a rotating speaker simulation.
| Modulation and Pitch Shifter FX | |
| Stereo Flanger | Originally generated by playback of two synchronized “reel to reel” tape decks with finger rubbing flange of 1 take-up reel |
| Vintage Flanger | Simulates guitar flanger stomp box |
| Jet Stream Flanger | Simulates classic analog flanger |
| Stereo Chorus | Combines a slightly detuned signal with the original |
| Analog Chorus | Simulates guitar chorus stomp box |
| Vintage Chorus | Simulates classic analog studio chorus |
| Ultra Chorus | Creates sound of an 8-person chorus |
| Stereo Phaser | Combines additional, phase-shifted signal with original |
| Vintage Phaser | Simulates guitar phaser stomp box |
| Dual Phaser | Processes the left and right channels separately |
| Leslie | Simulates rotating speakers typically used on an organ – Slow or Fast |
| Pitch Shifter | Creates harmonies with original signal, or replaces it with altered pitch |
| Vibrato | Peak frequency of tone periodically and uniformly changed – Slow or Fast |
| Tremolo | Volume of tone periodically and uniformly changed – Slow or Fast |
| Auto Panning | Signal automatically sent from left to right, either once or multiple times |
| Dynamic FX | |
| Compressor | Reduces signal dynamic range, maintains consistent level to avoid distortion from high input levels |
| Expander | Broadens dynamic range of signal, reduces background noise |
| Gate | Mutes sounds below threshold, very effective on drum/vocal mics |
| Analog Compressor/Limiter | Similar to Compressor, but limites maximum volume level |
| Ultramizer | Analyzes signal and applies automatic compression across 2 independent frequency bands |
| Denoiser | Eliminates or reduces noise and other interference |
| De-esser | Reduces or removes sibilance (Ssss sound) from signal |
| Wave Designer | Allows adjustment of attack and release of the signal envelope |
| Psychoacoustic FX | |
| Exciter | Artificially adds overtones, increasing presence and perceived loudness without actually increasing volume |
| Enhancer | Dynamic EQ for improving clarity and stereo image, similar to Exciter |
| Ultra Bass | Sub-harmonic processor combined with bass Exciter and Limiter |
| Stereo Imager | Divides input into middle and side signals, so they can be amplified selectively and then placed within the stereo image |
| Ultra Wide | Creates much broader stereo image |
| Binauralizer | Creates broader stereo image with compensation for speaker crosstalk |
| Filter/EQ FX | |
| Auto Filter | 3 filter options for changing the signal’s frequency response: low pass, band pass and high pass |
| LFO Filter | Similar to Auto Filter, but modulated by an oscillator with variable wave types and speeds |
| Parametric EQ | Allows control of bandwidth, frequency and amplitude of signal |
| Graphic EQ | Signal content divided into 6 adjacent frequency bands, can be cut or boosted (fixed bandwidth) |
| Distortion FX and Amp Simulations | |
| Vocal Distortion | Highly effective on vocals and drum loops, when combined with delay flanger |
| Tube Distortion | Simulates the sound of a wide range of vacuum tube types |
| Guitar Amp | Recreates the sound characteristics of a complete guitar amplifier |
| Tri-Fuzz | Simulates classic ’60s guitar fuzz box using 3 separate frequency bands |
| Speaker Simulation | Adds the sound of a variety of loudspeaker configurations |
| Ring Modulator | Radical effect based on Frequency Modulation (FM), similar to robot voice |
| Lo-Fi | Generates warm, old-school analog signal with added noise and hum |
| Special FX | |
| Vinylizer | Adds clicks and/or noise to signal, simulating old vinyl records and tape decks |
| Sampler | Allows recording and playback – up to 5 seconds |
| Vocoder | Allows input signal to modulate another signal (usually synthesizer) to create “talking synthesizer” effect |
| Voice Canceler | Removes mono vocals from stereo recordings for “instant Karaoke” |
| Resonator | Simulates an oscillating system amplifying a specific frequency |
| FX Combinations | |
| Chorus & Reverb | Phaser & Reverb |
| Flanger & Reverb | Chorus & Delay |
| Leslie & Reverb | Flanger & Delay |
| Pitch & Reverb | Pitch & Delay |
| Delay & Reverb | Tremolo & Delay |
| Tremolo & Reverb | |
