Harmony/Effect-Related Settings
In addition to the Reverb and Chorus effects, a wide variety of DSP (Digital Signal
Processor) effects let you enhance the sound, or completely transform it. Some DSP
types can be applied only to notes you play on the keyboard while the Reverb and
Chorus effects are applied to the entire instrument sound. When you select a Main
Voice, the optimum DSP Type for the Voice used is automatically selected. If you
want to select a different DSP type, use the procedure described below.
1
Press the [DSP] button to turn the DSP function on.
The [DSP] button lights when the DSP is turned on. To turn DSP off, press the
[DSP] button again.
2
Press and hold the [DSP] button for longer than a second to call
up the DSP type select display.
The currently selected DSP type will be displayed.
3
Use the dial to select a DSP type.
Refer to the Effect Type List in the separate Data List for information about the
available DSP types. Try playing the keyboard with the DSP function.
Adjusting the DSP Level
You can individually adjust the amount of DSP that is applied to the Main, Dual,
and Left Voices (see
).
4
Memorize the settings here to the Registration Memory as desired.
If you select a different Style without saving, the settings in steps 3 will be
cleared.
Selecting a DSP type
• DSP is an acronym for Digi-
tal Signal Processor and it
uses a micro processor to
change the audio in various
ways.
NOTE
• The volume of the currently
playing Voice changes when
turning DSP on or off. This is
not a malfunction. The
amount of change differs
depending on the selected
Voice.
• The DSP type is an overall
setting—only one type can
be selected. For this reason,
when you play a newly
loaded Song or Style, for
example, the currently play-
ing Voices may not sound as
expected. This is normal,
since the Song or Style has
its own DSP type which
replaces any selection
you’ve made before loading.
A similar phenomenon
occurs when you use the
[
f
], [
r
] buttons or A-B
Repeat function during
Song playback.
NOTE
Lights when the DSP is turned on.
