Reverb
The [REVERB] button selects a number of digital reverb effects that you can use for extra depth and
expressive power.
To select a reverb type press the [REVERB] button a few times until the indicator corresponding to the
desired type lights (the indicators light in sequence each time the [REVERB] button is pressed). No reverb
is produced when all indicators are off.
OFF ............ When no reverb effect is selected (no REVERB indicator is lit), a special natural
damper effect is applied to the piano voice. This simulates the natural resonance of
an acoustic piano’s strings and sound board when the damper pedal is pressed.
ROOM ........ This setting add a continuous reverb effect to the sound that is similar to the type of
acoustic reverberation you would hear in a medium-size room.
HALL 1 ......
For a “bigger” reverb sound, use the HALL 1 setting. This effect simulates the natu-
ral reverberation of a medium-size concert hall.
HALL 2 ...... For a really spacious reverb sound, use the HALL 2 setting. This effect simulates the
natural reverberation of a large concert hall.
COSMIC ....
The COSMIC reverb effect produces an echo-plus-reverb sound that can add life and
animation to your music.
●
Adjusting Reverb Depth The depth of the selected reverb effect can be adjusted for the current
voice by using the C2 through C4 keys on the keyboard while holding the
[REVERB] button. The C3 key sets the “normal” depth for the selected
effect. Keys to the left of C3 decrease the reverb depth, while keys to the
right of the C3 key increase the reverb depth. Separate reverb settings can
be made for each effect and voice, and these settings are retained in
memory until the power is turned off. The depth of the natural damper ef-
fect is fixed.

* All effect types set to C3 for all other voices.
* The default reverb type is ROOM.
Press the C7 key while holding the [REVERB] button to memorize the
current effect type and all depth settings made since the power was turned
on. The memorized settings will be retained in memory for about one week
after the power is turned off, then the default settings will be restored. To
keep the memorized settings for longer periods, turn the power on briefly at
least once a week.
If these settings are not memorized as described above, they are retained
in memory only until the Clavinova is turned off.
