BEFORE YOU BEGIN

● 75 DIGITAL EFFECTS

Two independent, studio quality DSP effects systems Insertion Effects and

System Effects each with three different types of effects generators. An Inser-

tion Effect can be assigned to each voice in Voice Edit Mode, and switched on and

off via the mixer. As many as three Insertion Effects can be used in a multi. The

three System Effects can be applied to the overall sound mix. Preset stereo effects

include reverb, delay, chorus, auto panning, 3-band EQ, Aural Exciter¤, pitch

change, distortion and many more. There are a total of 35 preprogrammed

Insertion Effects and 40 System Effects, which can be edited and configured in a
