Using the EFFECT CONTROL Using the Pads for Parameter
Button Adjustment
‘The EFFECT CONTROL button lets you
adjust the intensity and other parameters of
the digital effects. The parameters you are
allowed to adjust depend onthe effect being
used.
To adjust effect parameters
1. Selecta tone, Here, we will use 32
VIOLIN as an example.
2, Select aneffect, Forourexample,
we wil solect 15 VIBRATO.
3, Press the EFFECT CONTROL button.
When youdo, the five pads to the
leftofthe EFFECTCONTROL button
change function. You can now
use the pads to change effect
parameters
4,Use the pads to adjust the
parameters of the effect you
selected, See the explanation
below for details on making
adjustments
We will describe how to use the pads to
adjust the parameters of an effect by using
the VIBRATO effect selected in the above
procedure.
When the VIBRATO effect is selected, you
can use the pads to adjust the amplitude of
the vibrato, as well as its speed.
+ Tochange the amplitude ofthe vibrato, use
the PARAMETER I pads. Pressing /\
increases the amplitude, while \/
‘creases it.
* Tochange the speed of the vibrato, wse the
PARAMETER 2 pads. Press /\ to in
crease and \/ to decrease.
* To return the effect back to its original
parameters, press the RESET pad.

can adjust for each effect, see the section of
this manual titled “Using Effects
Effectively.” starting on page 22.
Operations
Using Effect Memory
After you use EFFECT CONTROL to change the parameters of an effect, you can store the
result into Effect Memory. There are a total of 10 Effect Memory locations numbered 60
through 69, which make up what is called the User Bank. Once you store one of your effects
into the User Bank, you can recall it just as you would any other Digital Effect Bank effect
— by inputting its number.
Storing an effect into the
Effect Memory
Use the following procedure to store an
effect you have created using the procedure
described under “Using the EFFECT
CONTROL Button” on page 20.
1. Press the EFFECT MEMORY button.
2. Press one of the EFFECT/TONE SE-
LECTbuttons to specifythenumber
where you want tostore the effect.
Note that you only need to input
‘one number, because the key-
board automatically assigns user
effects to the User Bank
+ Example: If you press 3, the effect is
stored under User Bank number 63.
Important!
‘Whenever you store an effecttoa User Bank
‘number, anything previously stored under
that User Bank number is automatically
deleted.
To recall a User Bank effect
Use the same procedure as that described
under “Selecting an Effect,” but instead of
using a Digital Effect Bank number, use a
‘User Bank number,
About the memory back up
power supply
‘The Effect Memory is electronic memory,
‘which means that it retains its contents eve
‘when you switch power off, as long as
poweris supplied through the ACadaptoror
by batteries. This means that Effect Memory
contents will be lost when there are no
batteries loaded (or when the batteries go
dead) and the AC adaptor is not plugged in
(or power through the AC adaptor is
interrupted for any reason). Note the
following advice to keep your Effect
Memory data safe.
+ Make sure that the batteries loaded in the
keyboard never go dead.
+ When replacing batteries, be sure to
‘connect the AC adaptor to supply power
