Making Detailed Settings for Tones
Playing Sound Monophonically
(Mono/Poly)
Specifies whether the tone will play polyphonically (POLY) or
monophonically (MONO).
The MONO setting is effective when playing a solo instrument
tone such as sax or flute.
Additionally, when this is set to "MONO LEGATO," you can
have monophonic performances played legato. Legato is a
playing style in which the spaces between notes are
smoothed, creating a flowing feel with no borders between the
notes. This creates a smooth transition between notes, which is
effective when you wish to simulate the hammering-on and
pulling-off techniques used by a guitarist.

Changing the Effect Applied to a Tone
(MFX 1 Type/MFX 2 Type)
You can make settings for the multi-effect applied to a tone.
The multi-effects are general-purpose effects that modify the
sound itself, and are able to completely transform the
character of the sound. There are 124 types of effects, and
you can choose the type that's suitable for your purposes.
Some types consist of a single effect such as distortion or
flanger, and other types combine effects in series or in
parallel. Reverb and chorus are also provided as multi-effect
types, and these are handled independently from the Reverb
(p. 118) and Chorus (p. 118) effects described later.
The RD-700GX lets you apply two multi-effects to the tones.
The two multi-effects are connected in series.
Press the [F2] button to switch between the two multi-effects.
Depending on the MFX Dest setting, the multi-effect
you select here may not be applied in some cases.
