Brilliance

Brilliance is the sound's brightness. You can set an overall in-
crease or decrease of brilliance.
This is the same parameter you can change with the BRIL-
LIANCE button (see page 17). However, contrary to the but-
ton, these changes can be memorized, and are preserved even
when turning the instrument off.
Note: Brilliance changes can be recorded into a song. If you lat-
er change them again, values recorded in the song are left un-
changed.

Note: The split point may be different from the default split
point, if you change it after turning the instrument on. Also, it
may vary when choosing a performance with two sounds in
Split mode. The last selected split point remains selected, until
you turn the instrument off.
