MULTI-FX is Multi-effects which contains 40 types of effect,
including distortion and delay. The MULTI-FX also has effect
types named "Chorus," and "Reverb" but these can be
applied separately from the Chorus (b) and Reverb (c) listed
above. It is also possible to apply the effect to just one of the
two tones.
Chorus is an effect that gives
a
wide, open sound, with
a
special type of wavering, like that of multiple instruments
playing together.
Reverb is
an
effect that simulates the reverberation you get
when performing in a room or hall with good acoustics. With
the GR-33's built-in reverb, you also get delay (an effect that
repeats a sow1d, sort of like a mountain echo).
The on/ off settings of these effects can be stored for each
patch.
• These effects are for use with the built-in sound generator.
Tlzey don't work with guitar sounds or any other than tJ,e
i11ternal syn th sound genm1tor. However, !f you use tJ,e
GUITAR OUT (RETURN) fack, you can make additional
connections to add external guitar-only effects. (p.
