The Variation effects are separate from the Reverb and
Chorus effects, and provide a wealth of additional and
unusual ways to change the sound of a Voice. It features
some of the same effects found in the Reverb and Chorus
sections. This is not mere redundancy; it allows you to use
one type of Reverb or Chorus for a special effect for the
selected Voice. Naturally, this Variation effect can be saved
as part of the Voice data. Variation also gives you many
special effects not found in the other sections, such as
Delay, Gate Reverb and Wah.

Explanations of the parameters that are common to all
Variation types are given below. For individual descrip-
tions of the Variation types and explanations for all other
Variation parameters, refer to the separate “Sound Lists and
MIDI Data” supplement.

This determines the Variation effect type for the Voice. For
details on specific effect types and parameters, refer to the
separate “Sound Lists and MIDI Data” supplement.

NOTE: When the Type is set to No Effect, no sound is output.
When set to THRU, the Variation effect is canceled and the
sound of the Voice is output without any Variation effect.

Wet/Dry

Range: W<D63 (0) — W=D (64) — W63>D (127)

NOTE: Numbers in parentheses indicate the corresponding
values, which can be entered directly from the numeric keypad
to change the settings. (Range: 0 - 127.)

This determines the balance between the original sound
(dry, or D) and the processed sound (wet, or W). A setting
of W=D results in an equal balance of dry and wet sound.
The Wet/Dry parameter is not available for some of the
effect types.

●

MODULATION Wheel Depth (Mod.Whl)

Range: -63 — +63

This determines the depth of the effect that is controlled by
the MODULATION Wheel. This allows you to use the
MODULATION Wheel as a kind of effect level control for
the Variation effect. A setting of 0 results in no MODULA-
TION Wheel control. This parameter is not available for
the 3-band EQ and 2-band EQ effect types.

●

Foot Controller Depth (Foot Cnt)

Range: -63 — +63

This determines the depth of the effect that is controlled by
the Foot Controller. This allows you to use the Foot
Controller as a kind of effect level control for the Variation
effect. A setting of 0 results in no Foot Controller control.
This parameter is not available for the 3-band EQ and 2-
band EQ effect types.
