You might have noticed that when you select some of the sounds, the LED indicator for the REVERB button is
turned on. The reason for this is some of the sounds are automatically set up to use reverb with one or more
additional effect on as part of their initial setting.
Adding an effect to the sound enhances tonal quality and improves acoustical realism. The CP piano is provided
with three separate groups of effects. The first is REVERB, the second is CHORUS, and third group EFFECTS
contains other useful effects such as Delay, Phaser, Rotary Speaker etc. The Concert Performer has a selection of
35 different Reverb, Chorus, and Effect types that can be used to enhance or even dramatically alter the instrument
sounds. Each of the over 1000 instrument and drum sounds has already been assigned a REVERB and CHORUS
setting and an additional EFFECT that suits that particular type of instrument. For example, a moderate Delay
effect is used on the Church Organ to recreate the sense of being in a large church, and a Rotary speaker effect
is used on the Drawbar organ to give it an authentic, vintage feel.
If you wish, you can change any of these effect settings separately for each sound, then save them as the new
Preset effect settings for that Sound. In addition, by setting the Effect For Sound function in the Settings Menu to
“Panel” the CP will ignore the preset effects settings for each Sound (see Effect For Sound on page 109).
(The CP piano can also remember your Effect settings as part of a Registration. See Registration on page 68.)
