Turning DSP Effects On and Off

You can turn the currently selected DSP effect on and off by pressing the DSP button.

•The current DSP effect’s on/off status is indicated on the display

by the indicator. The digital effect is on while this indicator is displayed, and off when it is not displayed.

•Press the DSP button to toggle the currently selected digital effect on and off.

To turn the DSP effect on and off1. Press the DSP button.

•This causes one of the two digital effect screens shown be- low to appear.

•The above screens clear if you do not perform any operation within about five seconds.

2.While a digital effect screen is on the display, use the [+] and [–] buttons to scroll through the digital ef- fects, until the one you want is displayed.

❚ NOTES ❚

•Playing a demo tune (page E-8) automatically changes the effect to the one that is assigned to the tune. You cannot change or cancel a demo tune effect.

•Changing the effect setting while sound is being output by the keyboard causes a slight break in the sound when the effect changes.

•The DSP effect is applied not only to the notes you play on the key- board, but also to rhythms and Auto Accompaniment patterns. Note that effects 3 through 6, and effect 8 can produce a mood that is not suitable for certain types of music when they are applied to rhythms and Auto Accompaniment. When this happens, you can turn off application of the effect to the rhythm and Auto Accompaniment by using the Mixer to set the effect send volume of the accompaniment channel to zero. For de- tails on the actual procedure for doing this, see “Changing the Parame- ters of a Channel” on page E-30.

•Setting the keyboard’s MAIN VOLUME slider to high volume when Ef- fect 9 (EQ Loudness) is being applied can cause distortion for certain tones and rhythm patterns. When this happens, lower the MAIN VOL- UME setting.

Using the PITCH BEND Wheel

As its name suggests, the PITCH BEND wheel lets you “bend” the pitch of a sound. This makes it possible to add a touch of realism to saxophone and other tones.

To use the PITCH BEND wheel

While holding down a keyboard key with your right hand, use your left hand to rotate the PITCH BEND wheel up and down.

•Releasing the PITCH BEND wheel returns the note to its original pitch.

❚ NOTES ❚

•With saxophone and electrical guitar tones, the most realistic sounding effects can be produced if you play notes and operate the PITCH BEND wheel simultaneously.

•See “Pitch Bend Range (Initial Default: 02)” on page E-59 for changing the bend range of the PITCH BEND wheel.

•Never turn on keyboard power while the PITCH BEND wheel is rotated.

Using the MODULATION Wheel

Modulation applies vibrato, which modulates the pitch of a note. It works best with notes that are sustained (held) by keeping a keyboard key held down, especially when playing the melody with a violin or other similar tone.

To use the MODULATION Wheel

While playing melody notes with your right hand, rotate the MODULATION wheel with your left to apply vibrato to the notes.

•The amount of vibrato applied depends on how far you rotate the MODULATION wheel upwards. Setting the wheel to its neutral position (rotated as far downwards as it can go) turns vibrato off.

❚ NOTES ❚

•Modulation can be used to add greater expression to sustained melody notes being played using a violin, synthetic reed, or other similar tone.

•Modulation affects different tones in different ways.
