CHAPTER7
Why Use Effects?
You can enhance the SP2ʹs sound even more with the internal effects. With reverbs, you can add
depth and reality to the SP2's sound. Also, you can enjoy a variety of modulation effects which
can dramatically change the timbre of internal sounds. By adding effects such as reverb or delay,
you can make your SP2 sound like a grand piano in a concert hall. Exploring the sonic potential
of your SP2 will be fun and most of all, your audience will be impressed with the full and rich
sound of your instrument. For quick reference, use the following list.

Description
The SP2's digital multi‐effects consist two independent effect blocks called Effect and Reverb.
You can determine which effect block each program or setup goes thorough. We call it Signal
Routing.
The SP2 has 64 effect presets. All of them are available for Effect block. For Reverb block, 30
reverbs are available ( these reverbs are also available for Effect block ). Thus, most programs
are routed to Effect block by default.
Controlling Effect
Basically, most programs and setups have at least one assigned effect. The LEDs in the Effect
and the Reverb block buttons come on and go off according to the settings for each program or
setup. Activating one of those blocks will turn on the LED in the corresponding button. Of
course, you can activate both blocks if needed. In this case, both LEDs are turned on. You can
assign knobs to control the wet/dry mix of each block in the Performance / Edit region.
