3 Voice Controls and Effects
2. Selecting from the Panel Buttons
●
Reverb
Reverb adds an echo-like effect to the sound, giving the impression of a
performance in a large room or concert hall. The effect is applied equally
and simultaneously to all voice sections.
To adjust the reverb effect:
Press one of the REVERB buttons, located at the far left of the panel.
These controls determine the depth of the reverb effect. There are seven
settings, from a minimum of 0, or no reverb, to the maximum.
●
Sustain
Sustain is selectable for the Upper, Lower and Pedal voices and makes the
sound gradually fade out when the keys are released. The sustain on/off
and sustain length settings are independent for each keyboard, providing
maximum expressive control.
To add sustain to the voices and call up the
Sustain Length page:
1.
Press either of the buttons in the SUSTAIN section.
The lamp of the button pressed lights up to indicate that sustain is on.
Press the button again to turn sustain off.
The Sustain display appears on the LCD display.
2.
Determines the length of sustain applied to each
voice section by using each of the DATA CONTROL
buttons.
The display shows the current sustain length values for each voice section.
Increasing values makes sustain more effectively. Range: 0 – 12.

Sustain cannot be applied to
the Lead voices.
If knee lever control of the
Upper or Lower sustain has
been turned on, pressing the Upper or
Lower buttons here will not add
sustain unless the knee lever is
pushed. (See page 52.)
Remember that the SUSTAIN
buttons are on/off switches. If
you use them to simply check the
sustain length values, you may
unintentionally change the on/off
status of the effect. Remember to
check whether the sustain button
lamps are on or off before you start to
play.
When you turn off and turn
on the Electone again, the
voice is set to the Basic
Registration 1. Be sure to store the
selected voices (registration
setting) to the Registration
Memory before you turn off the
Electone (see page 47.).
