x The FAT effect is really an effective way to make melody notes and solo lead lines stand
out, but... don't forget it also uses up twice as many synth voices. if you are already using
close to the maximum number of voices, you may run into a situation where the notes you
played a second ago get cul off in order to sound new notes.

ON/OFF
This determines whether reverb and chorus will be applied to the 2nd Tone. Let's say you have the Ist
Tone {a string sound) assigned to the treble strings only, and the 2nd Tone (a synth bass sound) to the
fifth and sixth strings only. Then, if vou want to apply some reverb and chorus to the string sound
only, set this to OFF. No effects will be applied to the 2nd Tone (synth bass).
Press the VALUE
[INC land
buttons to select ON (effects applied to Zad) or OFF (no effects
applied to 2nd).
* Note that this turns off 2nd Tone effects regardless of any other effects settings you may
have made. To avoid confusion later on, it's better to leave this set to ON in your regular
Patches.
