Thank you for selecting the ZOOM RFX-1100 (hereafter simply called the "RFX-
1100
"). The RFX-1100 is a sophisticated digital reverb and multi-effect processor with
the following features and functions.
Please take the time to read this manual carefully so as to get the most out of
your RFX-1100 and to ensure optimum performance and reliability. Retain this
manual, the warranty card and all other documentation for future reference.
• 33 immediately usable effects
The RFX-1100 comes with a full complement of preset effects (11 effects x 3 banks).
Right out of the box, the unit is ready to create great sound. The REVERB bank in
particular provides a wide spread and natural sounding ambience that meets even
demanding professional standards.
• Built-in professional quality reverb
The reverb effects alone allow 121 different settings. The convincing sound stage
created by the RFX-1100 far surpasses anything else available in this class.
•Innovative choices
Lo-Fi EFX purposely degrades sound quality for special effect. RESONANCE
processes the input signal with sophisticated filtering. MIC SIMULATOR produces
condenser mic sound from a dynamic microphone. These and various other effects
are great for recording and give full scope to your creativity.
• Attractive mixdown effects
Mixdown effects can be used effectively to tailor the overall mood of a song when
performing mixdown (mixing multiple tracks onto two final stereo tracks) or
mastering (fine-tuning the sound and level of a final 2-track mix).
• Intuitive editing controls
Convenient knobs on the front panel let you directly adjust items such as the mixing
ratio of original sound and effect sound. Editing effect parameters on the fly is also
easy and straightforward. This allows quick fine-tuning for optimum sound.
• MIC IN connector
The MIC IN connector on the front panel serves as an additional input for a
microphone. This is convenient for applying effects to a vocal part and for
controlling the VOCODER effect with your voice.
