Detune Control (unidirectional). This control varies the successive detune between 0 and the value set in the chorusing
parameters. Chorus detune is a live effect (i.e., it is effective after the note has started.).
Detune Mode Switch. This switch changes the sign of detune mode (i.e., + becomes -; ± becomes -/+).
Detune/Mode Control (bidirectional). This is a bidirectional control that combines the detune control with the mode switch.
When the control is above center (or below if the direction is reversed), the detune is varied and the normal mode is used. In
the other direction, the detune mode is reversed.
Delay Control (unidirectional). This control varies the successive delay between 0 and the value set in the chorusing
parameters. It is only effective when a note is started.
Decay Control (unidirectional). This control varies the successive decay between 0 and the value set in the chorusing
parameters. It is only effective when a note is started.
Chorus Editor Hints
Chorusing can generate multiple notes for a single key event. The K150X can produce 16 notes simultaneously. If you play
a chord while chorusing is enabled, the sound quality may be thinner than expected because the total number of notes you are
trying to generate exceeds the 16-note maximum.
One "trick" you can try is to set some small delay (5ms) between chorused notes using the Delay parameter. This will greatly
expand the K150X’s note generation capability.
Try the initial settings in Table 9-2 in order to create popular effects.
