Using the effects of the internal sound generator

Parameters that can be edited in Native mode

The sound generator effect parameters that can be edited using the front panel of the SD-80 will differ depending on the sound generator mode (GM2 or Native mode). In the SD-80’s Native mode, you can edit the parameters of the two system effects and three MFX (multi-effects). The following parameters can be edited.

Reverb (System Effect)

This includes parameters that specify the type of reverb, how the reverb will be sounded, and how it will be output.

Reverb Type

Selection for the type of reverb. The parameters that can be edited will depend on the Reverb Type.

 

Type

Explanation

 

 

 

 

 

0

(OFF)

Reverb will not be used.

 

1

(Reverb)

Basic reverb.

 

2

(SRV Room)

Reverb that simulates the reverberation of a room in greater detail.

 

3

(SRV Hall)

Reverb that simulates the reverberation of a hall in greater detail.

 

4

(SRV Plate)

Reverb that simulates a plate echo (a reverb device that uses a metal plate).

 

5

(GM2)

This is the same as GM2 reverb.

Reverb Level

0–127

Specifies the output level of the signal that has passed through the reverb.

Reverb Source

COMMON, PART 1–32

Reverb parameters (reverb type, reverb time, etc.) exist both outside the sound (COMMON) and within the sound (PATCH). This setting specifies which set of parameters the reverb unit will use.

Output Assign

1, 2

Selects the output jacks for the reverb. You can select either OUTPUT 1 or OUTPUT 2 stereo outputs.

When Reverb Type is set to 1 (Reverb)

The following parameters can be edited when Reverb Type is set to 1 (Reverb).

Type (Reverb/Delay Type)

Specifies the type of reverb (or delay).

 

Value

Explanation

 

 

 

 

 

ROOM 1

Reverb with short duration and high density

 

ROOM 2

Reverb with short duration and low density

 

STAGE 1

Reverb with a greater amount of subsequent reverberation

 

STAGE 2

Reverb with strong early reflections

 

HALL 1

Reverb with a transparent character

 

HALL 2

Rich reverb

 

 

DELAY

Conventional delay

 

PAN-DELAY

Delay with reflections that pan (move) between left and right

Time (Reverb/Delay Time)

0–127

When the Type is ROOM 1–HALL 2 this adjusts the duration of the reverb. When the Type is DELAY or PAN-DELAY, this specifies the delay time. Increasing this value will produce a more spacious feeling.
