●Using Chorus and Delay

In the case of a Drum Instrument, it is not possible to simultaneously use both chorus and delay. Chorus will not be applied to a Drum Instrument for which “d” and “D” is displayed in the CHORUS column (Fig.2). In this case, you can apply chorus by using the CHORUS [l] [r] buttons to set the chorus send level.

Delay will not be applied to a Drum Instrument for which a number is displayed in the CHORUS column (Fig.1). In this case, you can apply delay by press the EFX TYPE [l] [r] buttons to set the delay send level. In other words, in the case of chorus and delay, only the one you specify last will be valid.

●About the Assign Group

Each instrument can be given a number, and instruments with the identical number are treated as an Assign Group. No two instruments of the same Assign Group will sound together. If while one instrument is sounding, a MIDI message is received to play another instrument in the same Assign Group, the first instrument will be turned off first. This is a useful way to prevent two instruments from sounding simultaneously that would not normally do so. For example since it is obviously impossible for a hi-hat to simultaneously produce both an open hi-hat sound and a closed hi-hat sound, these two sounds could be set to the same Assign Group (the same number) so that they would not sound together.

Numbers from Non, 1 to 127 can be selected, but instruments for which Non is selected will not be turned off by other instruments. In other words, instruments with a setting of Non will not be treated as an Assign Group.

*Be aware that if you select a different Drum Set, the parameter values will be initialized.
