Synthesizer Mode

DSP Settings

Use the DSP editing screen to select the DSP type and to edit parameters.

1Select a tone, press the SYNTH button, and then configure parameter settings.2After everything is the way you want, press the [￿] CURSOR button once.

•This advances to the DSP parameter editing screen.

•Pressing the [￿] CURSOR button returns to the Synthesizer Mode parameter screen.

This setting specifies DSP parameters. For details, see

“DSP Parameters” on page E-26, the separate Appendix E, and the “algorithmlist_e.pdf” file in the “English” folder on the CD-ROM that comes with your digital piano.

NOTE

•If you store an original tone with the DSP line turned on (page E-49), simply recalling the tone automatically changes the DSP line, DSP type, and DSP parameter settings. This simplifies the recall of original tones that include a DSP effect.

User Tone Creation Hints

The following hints provide helpful advice on making user tone creation a bit quicker and easier.

Use a preset tone that is similar to the one you are trying to create.

Whenever you already have a rough idea of the tone you are trying to create, it is always a good idea to start with a preset tone that is similar.

■Experiment with various different settings.

There are no real rules about what a tone should sound like. Let your imagination run free and experiment with different combinations. You may be surprised at what you can achieve.

Storing a User Tone In Memory

The following procedure shows how to store a user tone in memory. Once a tone is stored, you can call it up just as you do with a preset tone.
