Position of the Tremolo/Panner block
If the Tremolo block is placed before the Amp block and there's a lot of amp gain, the tremolo effect will be attenuated. Adjust the waveform or the Duty parameter in the Tremolo block to emphasize the pulse. Or move the block to a position after the Amp block.
Panner effect
The Panner pans the signal left and right, just like a ping pong delay. This requires the signal not being summed to mono after the Tremolo/Panner block.
Parameters
Parameters table
Parameter | Axe-Fx III | Axe-Fx II | AX8, FX8 |
---|---|---|---|
Depth
There's no Mix parameter In the Tremolo block. Depth is the same as Mix, because a tremolo's modulation is volume-based.
"Mix makes no sense in a tremolo as it is the same as reducing the depth." source
Start Phase
You can make the Tremolo start on the beat (triggered) by using the Start Phase parameter.
Use other effects to create a tremolo effect
Amp block
The Amp block provides its own tremolo effect: Bias Tremolo. Its effect depends on the specific amp model.
Read more: Amp block.
Ring Modulator
You can configure the Ring Modulator to act as a tremolo, by turning down Frequency all the way.
Flanger
You can even turn a Flanger into a tremolo.
More information
- When using a high gain amp tone, put Tremolo after the Amp block for more distinct choppy tremolo.
- You can make the Panner effect appear “fuller” and “wider” (stereo only) by adding the Stereo Enhancer behind it.
- Create a shuffled tempo.
- Create a "Flint" tremolo.
