This keyboard provides you with a selection of effects that you can apply to tones.

The built-in effects include a wide variety of variations that give you access to a selection of general digital effects.

Effect BlocksThe following shows how the effects of this keyboard are organized.
CHORUS

The chorus effect gives sound greater depth by causing it to vibrate. You can choose from among 16 different chorus effects, including “Chorus” and “Flanger.”

The equalizer is another type of effect that you can use to make adjustments in tone quality. Frequencies are divided among a number of bands, and raising and lowering the level of each frequency band alters the sound.

You can reproduce the optimal acoustics for the type of music you are playing (classics, for example) by selecting the applicable equalizer setting.

DSP

DSP effects are applied to the connection between the sound source and output. You can select distortion and modulation effects. You can create DSP effect setups and also transfer downloaded DSP data from your computer. The keyboard has memory that lets you store up to 100 DSP effect setups. See “Using the Music Data Management Software (on the Bundled CD-ROM)” on page E-76 and “Saving the Settings of DSP Parameters” on page E-25 for more information.

REVERB

Reverb simulates the acoustics of specific types of environments. You can choose from among 16 different reverb effects, including “Room” and “Hall.”

Selecting a DSP Type

In addition to the 100 built-in effect types, you can also edit effect types to create your own and store them in user memory. You can have up to 100 effect types in user memory at one time. You can also select the DSP type of the last DSP enabled tone that you used. This means you always have access to the DSP type of Advanced Tones and tones you download over the Internet. To select the DSP type of the last DSP enabled tone that you used, select “ton” in step 3 of the procedure below.

Perform the following steps to select a DSP type.

•When using a DSP effect, you should use the Mixer to confirm that the DSP lines of the required parts are turned on. See “Mixer Function” on page E-36 for more information.

1. Press the EFFECT button so the pointer appears next to EFFECT on the display.

•The DSP type setting screen (step 3) will appear automatically about fives seconds after you press the button.
