Effects
To complement the huge variety of Voices and the 32-Part multi-timbral
capacity, the MU100 features a built-in multi-effect processor with seven
independent digital effects: Reverb, Chorus, Variation, Insertion 1 and 2,
and EQ. (In this section, we’ll examine the first five; EQ is covered on page
82.)
These high-quality effects provide an enormous amount of sound pro-
cessing power and flexibility. Combine these with the Part controls in the
Multi mode, and you have a “virtual” 34-channel mixer at your disposal,
with per-channel EQ, master EQ, and six effect sends — complete with six
independent effect units!
The following instructions assume that the XG mode is selected (page
42). However, using effects in the Performance mode and the other modes is
done in virtually the same way.
In this section, you’ll learn how to:

Use the Variation effects to apply distortion to a Part.
Using Reverb and Chorus
Judicious use of Reverb creates a sense of space and enhances the realism of
the Voices. The selected Reverb Type is applied to all Parts; however, the
amount of Reverb for each Part can be adjusted. This lets you add special
textures to the mix of a song, such as “drenching” one Part in Reverb while
another Part is kept “dry.”
The Chorus effect section features a variety of pitch modulation effects.
These let you subtly enhance or “fatten” the sound, or completely transform
the sound in wild and unique ways. As with Reverb, only one Chorus Type
can be used for all Parts; however, the amount of Chorus for each Part can
be adjusted.
