Yes, there are three parameters you can adjust: beta (aggressiveness), 
decay (how quickly the unit backs off) and "length" (set from 1 through 4).

These are better explained in the manual than I can summarize here in an 
email message.  Please read those sections of the manual and work 
through the examples.

Yes, they share the same parameters.  You might try going to the DSP 
menu and HOLD the STORE button to cycle through the 4 "length" settings. 
  In the end, though, you'll probably have to play with the various 
parameters to find the combination that works best for you.
