Adjusting the effects

The C-720 is equipped with three types of effects:

Effect

Meaning

 

 

IFX (Insert Effect)

The sound pass entirely through this effect.

 

This is used for effects being part of the

 

sound itself, like the phaser of the rotary

 

speaker. There is a separate IFX for each of

 

the sounds.

 

 

Rev (Reverb)

This effect adds ambience to the sounds. In

 

Layer or Split mode, there is a single reverb

 

for all selected sounds.

 

 

Ch (Chorus)

This effect adds modulation to the sounds.

 

In Layer or Split mode, there is a single cho-

 

rus for all selected sounds.
