Advanced Functions
Playing various musical instrument sounds (Voices)
[BRILLIANCE]
This control can be used to change the tonality or “timbre” of the sound output.
Press the [BRILLIANCE] button a few times until the indicator corresponding to
the desired type lights. When two adjacent indicators are lit, the type that is
between the two indicated types is selected. For example, when both NORMAL
and MELLOW are lit, the brilliance setting between NORMAL and MELLOW is
selected. This parameter affects the entire sound of the instrument.
BRIGHT
.......... Bright tone
NORMAL
........Standard tone
MELLOW
........Soft and mellow tone
[REVERB]
This control enables you to select various digital reverb effects that would add
extra depth and expression to the sound and create a realistic acoustic ambience.
Press the [REVERB] button a few times until the indicator corresponding to the
desired type lights. No effect is produced when all indicators are off. You can also
adjust the reverb depth (see below).
Off
....................When no reverb effect is selected, no REVERB indicator is lit.
The GRAND PIANO1 – GRAND PIANO4 Voices feature an acoustic-
piano-like soundboard resonance effect, even when the Reverb is off.
ROOM
.............This setting adds a continuous reverb effect to the sound, similar to the
acoustic reverberation you would hear in a room.
HALL 1
............For a “bigger” reverb sound, use the HALL 1 setting. This effect simulates
the natural reverberation of a small-size concert hall.
HALL 2
............For a truly spacious reverb sound, use the HALL 2 setting. This effect
simulates the natural reverberation of a large concert hall.
STAGE
.............Simulates the reverb of a stage environment.
Adjusting Reverb Depth
The reverb depth for the selected Voice can be adjusted by simultaneously
holding down the [REVERB] button and pressing the [-/NO] or [+/YES] button.
The depth range is from 0 through 20. The current depth setting appears on the
display while the [REVERB] button is held.
The default setting can be recalled by simultaneously holding down the
[REVERB] button and pressing the [-/NO] [+/YES] buttons together.
