4 Reverb

Reverb adds an echo-like effect to the sound, giving the impression of a performance in a large room or concert
hall. The effect is applied equally and simultaneously to all voice sections.
To adjust the reverb effect:
Press one of the REVERB buttons, located at the far left of the panel.
These controls determine the depth of the reverb effect. There are
seven settings, from a minimum of 0, or no reverb, to the maximum.

5 Sustain

The Sustain effect, selectable for the Upper, Lower and Pedal voices, causes voices to gradually fade out when
the keys are released. The sustain on/off and sustain length settings are independent for each keyboard,
providing maximum expressive control. Sustain is also independent from the other effects (such as Tremolo or
Symphonic) .
To add sustain to the voices and call up the Sustain Length page: Press
the UPPER (appropriate) button in the SUSTAIN section.
The lamp of the button lights up to indicate that sustain is on. Press the
button again to turn sustain off.

6 Glide

Glide is a footswitch-activated effect; pressing the footswitch immediately lowers the pitch of the selected voice
or voices by a half-step. (Refer to the footswitch function on page 89.)

Sustain cannot be applied to the
NOTE
Lead voices.
If knee lever control of the
Upper or Lower sustain has
NOTE
been turned on, pressing the
Upper or Lower buttons here will not
add sustain unless the knee lever is
pushed. (See page 90 for more
information.)
The values here must be set
high enough for the sustain
NOTE
effect to be noticeable.
Remember that the SUSTAIN
buttons are on/off switches. If
NOTE
you use them to simply check
the sustain length values, you may
unintentionally change the on/off status
of the effect. Remember to check
whether the sustain button lamps are on
or off before you start to play.
