■Apply effects to the sound

Effects are used to electrically process the sound in various ways to add a different character to the sound. The effects of this unit can be classified either as System effects (p.48) or as Insertion effects (p.56). System effects include 8 types each of reverb and chorus, 10 types of delay, and 2-band equalizer. Insertion effects include 64 effect types. In addition, you can make appropriate parameter settings for each effect, providing varied and detailed control over the sound.

Now let's apply a System effect.

●Adjust the amount of reverb

Reverb is an effect that adds spacious reverberance to the sound, simulating a performance in an acoustically live concert hall. Pressing REVERB [l] decreases the reverb depth, and pressing REVERB [r] increases the reverb depth.

●Adjust the amount of chorus

Chorus is an effect that adds depth and richness to the sound. Pressing CHORUS [l] decreases the chorus depth, and pressing CHORUS [r] increases the chorus depth.

●Adjust the amount of delay

Delay is an effect that delays the sound to create echoes. Also, you can add a short delay to the original sound to give depth and space to the sound. While holding down the [SC-88 MAP] button, press DELAY [l], decreases the volume of the delayed sound, and while holding down the [SC-88 MAP] button, press DELAY [r], increases the volume of the delayed sound.

*The area of the screen where the Delay setting is displayed is shared with the Key Shift display. When while holding down the [SC-88 MAP] button, press [DELAY] buttons, the delay setting will be displayed, and when the [KEY SHIFT] buttons are pressed the key shift setting will be dis- played. If the display indicates a +/- (plus or minus) value, the key shift setting is being dis- played. (p.12)

*When the EFX indicator is dark, you can also set the delay by pressing EFX TYPE [l][r].
