■
LWR Mem (Lower Chord Memory)
(
On/Off
, Default setting: Off) The Lower Chord
Memory function memorizes the chords you play
while the Lower part is on and holds the corre-
sponding notes until you play another chord. If you
need this Hold function for the Lower part, switch
it on.
■
LWR Int (Lower Chord Intelligence)
(
On/Off
, Default setting: Off) When you activate
the [LOWER] button, the EM-55 OR’s Lower Chord
Intelligence function allows you to play major
chords by pressing just one key, minor chords by
pressing two keys, and more complex chords by
pressing three keys. This system thus follows Arran-
ger control, which is why it would be a good idea to
select “On” whenever you are using the Lower part
while the KBD MODE [ARRANGER] indicator lights.
■
Bass Inv
(
On/Off
) Use this parameter to change the way in
which the Arranger reads the chords you play. See
p. 26.
Rev (Reverb Type)
(Default setting: Hall 2) Use this parameter to select
the kind of Reverb that best suits your musical pur-
poses. See p. 32.
Note:
This parameter can also be selected by pressing
[FUNCTION] + [6].
■
Chr (Chorus Type)
(Default setting: Chorus 3) This parameter allows
you to specify the sound of the Chorus effect. See
p. 33.
Note:
This parameter can also be selected by press-
ing [FUNCTION] +
[7].
■
MI (Melody Intelligence harmony type)
(Default setting: Traditnl) This parameter allows you
to select the desired harmony type for the Melody
Intell(igence) function.
Note:
This parameter can also be selected by pressing
and holding the [MELODY INTELL] button. See p. 26.
■
MFX (M-FX type)
(Default setting: EH
®
Delay) This parameter allows
you to select the desired M-FX type. See p. 31 for
details about the M-FX. Keyboard parts that use the
M-FX are no longer processed by the Reverb and
Chorus effects. Selecting “Thru” means that the
M-FX is off. Also note that you will only hear the
M-FX if the [M-FX EFFECTS] indicator lights.
Note:
This parameter can also be selected by pressing
and holding the [M-FX EFFECTS] button.
Note:
M-FX type selection can also be linked to Tone
selection for the Upper 1 part. See “Tone MFX” (p. 47).
Thru
: The M-FX is off.
Enhancer
: An Enhancer controls the overtone
structure of the high frequencies, adding sparkle
and tightness to the sound.
Overdrv1~4
: Overdrive creates a soft distortion
similar to that produced by tube amplifiers. Several
types of overdrive are available: (1) Small combo
amp, (2) Combo amp, (3) Large double-stack amp (2
cabinets), (4) Large double-stack amp (3 cabinets).
Distort1~4
: This effect produces a more intense
distortion than Overdrive. The numbers refer to dif-
ferent kinds of distortion.
Phaser
: Adds a phase-shifted sound to the original
sound, producing a twisting modulation that cre-
ates spaciousness and depth.
AutoWah
: The Auto Wah cyclically controls a filter
to create cyclic change in timbre.
Rotary
: Simulates the sound of a classic rotary
speaker. This effect is most suitable for electric
organ.
StFlangr
: This is a stereo Flanger. It produces a
metallic resonance that rises and falls like a jet air-
plane taking off or landing.
SpFlangr
: A Step Flanger is a Flanger effect with
clearly noticeable steps rather than continuous
pitch changes.
Compress
: A compressor reduces signal peaks and
boosts low levels, smoothing out unevenness in
volume.
Limiter
: A limiter prevents the volume from
exceeding a certain level without boosting low lev-
els.
HexaCho
: Hexa Chorus uses six layers of chorused
sound to give richness and spatial spread to the
sound.
Trem Cho
: Tremolo Chorus is a Chorus effect with
added Tremolo (cyclic modulation of the volume).
StChorus
: This is a stereo Chorus.
Space-D
: A multiple Chorus that gives no impres-
sion of modulation, but produces a transparent
Chorus effect (the perfect “stereo maker”).
StDelay
: Delay is an effect that allows you repeat
the input signal, thus creating echoes (repetition).
Mod Delay
: This effect adds modulation to the
delayed sound, producing an effect similar to a
Flanger.
3Tap Dly
: The Triple Tap Delay produces three delay
sounds; center, left and right.
4Tap Dly
: Delay with four repetition lines.
TmCtrDly
: This effect controls the delay time in
realtime.
Reverb
: A nice Reverb effect
.
GteRevNr
: Gate Reverb is a special type of Reverb
in which the reverberant sound is suddenly cut off
(and does not gradually decrease).
GteRevRv
: A gated Reverb effect that sounds
“backwards”.
GteRevS1
: The reverberant sound moves from
right to left.
GteRevS2
: The reverberant sound moves from left
to right.
2PtchShf
: A Pitch Shifter changes the pitch of the
original sound. This 2-voice effect has two pitch
shifters, and adds two transposed copies to the
original sound.
FbPtchShf
: Pitch Shifter with several echoes.
