Switching the Reverb effect on and off

At power-on, the digital Reverb effect is switched off. To use this effect, you need to switch it on:

1.Press the [Reverb] button to switch the Reverb effect on (or off).

The button’s indicator lights when the Reverb effect is on.

2.Repeat the above to switch the Reverb back off (or on) again.

Setting the Reverb level

You can also set the volume of the Reverb effect to accommodate the sound your are using. You may want to select a higher Reverb level for the “Organ” sounds (to simulate the reverberations of a church) than for the piano sound, for example.

There are eight possible Reverb level settings. At power-on, the HP-1 selects level “3”.

3.Simultaneously press [Demo] and [Reverb] to enter Function mode (both indicators flash).

4.Press a key between the “A2” and the “E3” (see the keyboard illustration above) to set the desired Reverb level.
