VA-76 – Effects and Equalizer

4.Press the [Reverb] field and modify the Reverb send level.

Note: The Reverb, Delay and Chorus send levels cannot be set for Keyboard parts you assign to the M-FX effect (see page 122). The M-FX effect, however, has the same send parameters (see page 123).

Effects settings

Three of the VA-76’s effects can be edited and thus tai- lored to your needs. The settings you perform here

The display now looks more or less as follows:

2.Press the field that is assigned to the effect you wish to edit (left column).

3.Press a field in the center of the display to select an effect type.

The number of types depends on the selected effect.

4.Use the [Level] slider in the right part of the display for setting the output level of the effect processor itself.

This parameter allows you to set the volume of the selected effects processor. The connection is as follows:

 

Level

 

Chorus

"Chorus"

Level

 

Reverb

"Reverb"

Level

 

Delay

Keyboard/Style

"Delay"

EQ

part

apply to all parts that use the effect in question. Espe- cially for the Reverb and Chorus effects, it is therefore

wise to work with universally usable settings. Try to consider these two as “general” effects that will be used by several parts at once.

The Delay effect, on the other hand, is probably only useful when applied to one part (because too many repeated sounds clutter up the sound image).

Note: The VariPhrase and Audio In parts use separate effects. See page 124.

1.Select the effects parameters you wish to edit:

a)Select a Mixer page (see page 112) and press the [Effect] field.

b)Press the [EFFECTS] button.

The [Level] sliders therefore allow you to change the balance between the selected effect on the one hand and the mix of the Keyboard and Style/Arranger parts plus the remaining effects on the other hand.

Note: This slider duplicates the function of the “Level” parameter found on the Parameters page (see page 118, for example).

5.Press the [Macro] field to recall the preset parame- ters for the selected effects type (Room1, Room 2, Room 3, etc. on the above page).

This recalls suitable preset values for all effects param- eters (Pre-LPF~RevPre DlyT in the case of the Reverb effect). The difference between Macro and Character (see below) is that the former does what its name implies: it calls up a program Macro that includes Character selection and Parameters settings for the selected effect.

Note: “Character” is only available for the Reverb effect.

Note: Do not press [Macro] after making your own settings on one of the Parameters pages for that would reset all your changes to the factory settings.

6.Press the [Param] field to jump to the Parameters page of the selected effect.
