Effect Type Reverb Hall
At initial selection, this voice produces an elegant organ-type sound.
FC1 and FC2 alter the sound while maintaining the organ-like image. FC1 adds an overtone one octave up for a
brighter sound contour, while FC2 removes the fundamental tone, leaving a discordant residue.
MW1 creates a more drastic change, producing a slow flanging effect.
You can get an eerie sound effect by setting MW1 all the way up, holding down the sustain pedal, and repeatedly
moving MW2, FC1, and FC2 up and down. It is virtually impossible to play a melody while doing this, but the effect
Performance is worth hearing.
