Performance Functions and Effects
Distortion 1–4 Produces a more intense distortion than
Overdrive. You can choose from four
types.
Combines the original sound with a phase-
Phaser
shifted sound, and modulates it to pro-
duce a twisting, swishing effect.
AutoWah Cyclically moves a filter to create a repeat-
ing wah effect (cyclic change in tone).
Simulates the sound of a classic rotary
Rotary
speaker. You can switch the rotational
speed (slow/fast) by pushing the BEND-
ER/MODULATION lever away from
yourself, creating an authentic-sounding
sense of modulation. This effect is ideal for
organ sounds.
StFlanger Produces a metallic resonance reminiscent
(stereo of a jet airplane taking off and landing.
flanger)
StepFlanger Varies the sound of a flanger in pitched
steps.
Makes the volume more consistent by re-
Compressor
straining loud sounds and boosting soft
sounds.
Limiter Prevents distortion by compressing
sounds that are above a specified volume
level.
HexaChorus Applies a six-phase chorus to add spa-
ciousness and depth to the sound. (Six cho-
rus sounds with differing delays are
layered together.)
TremChorus Applies a chorus effect with tremolo (cy-
(tremolo cho- clic change in volume).
rus)
StChorus Applies a stereo chorus effect.
(stereo cho-
rus)
Applies a multiple chorus with dual-phase
Space-D
stereo modulation. This creates a transpar-
ent chorus effect with no sense of modula-
tion.
StDelay Creates an echo effect by repeating the in-
(stereo delay) put sound.
Mod Delay Modulates the delayed sound to create a
(modulation flanger-like effect.

3Tap Delay Produces delayed sound from three posi-

4Tap Delay Produces four delayed sounds.

TmCtrDelay Lets you control the delay time in real time
while you push the modulation lever.

With the factory settings, the MFX type will automatically
switch according to the tone you select. For details, refer to
"Tone MFX" (p. 24).

Play the keyboard to hear the sound of the effect.

Press [FUNCTION] so it goes out.
If MFX is set to anything other than "Off," you can't apply
chorus to the tone of the main part.
