6. About the effects
Effects allow you to modify the sound in various ways, or simulate an acoustic environment.
The digital multi-effects provided on the TRINITY series allow you to select from a wide variety
of different effects.
Effects for which dynamic modulation can be specified allow you to control effect parameters
while you play using any desired control source.
The TRINITY series has two types of effects; Insert Effects and Master Effects. You can choose
from 100 types of insert effects, and from 14 types of master effects.
Insert effect settings
Regardless of the mode you are in, insert effect settings are made in P7.
Program
Effect routing for a program is set in Program Edit mode P7, tab 1 (Insert Effects), and the various
effect parameters are set in tab pages 2 and following (Effect Parameter).
The effects that can be used by a single-mode or double-mode program must have a total effect
size of 4 or less, and up to 3 effects can be connected in series.
The effects that can be used by a drum-mode program must have a total effect size of 4 or less, and
up to 4 effects can be connected in series or in parallel. The way in which the drum sample settings
will be sent to each effect can be specified by the Global mode P5 (Drumkit) parameter Insert Fx;
for each key, you can specify an insert effect (1–4) to which the sound will be sent.
Insert effect settings are also made in Program Edit mode P7, tab page 1 parameters Pan, Width,
and Send 1 and 2 (for signals after the Insert Effects).
Pan sets the stereo location, Width sets the width of the insert effects, and Send 1 and 2 determine
the send levels (input levels) to the master effects.
If the output of the insert effect is stereo, the Program Edit mode P7 Width parameter will adjust
the width of the effect. If you want to allow the oscillator pan setting (Program Edit mode P5) or
drum kit pan setting (Global mode P5) to be effective, set Program Edit mode P7 Pan to 64, and
Width to 127.
To bypass the insert effects, turn the effect OFF. If you are not using insert effects, set the effect size
to 0.
< Insert Effects and Master Effects >
Insert effects are used to help create the sound of specific programs. Effects such as overdrive,
equalizer, wah, and compressor are provided.
Master effects are used to create the overall acoustical ambiance of a performance space (rever-
berance). Effects such as ensemble, delay, and reverb are provided.
< Effect routing >
On the TRINITY series, effects can be connected in parallel or in series. The way in which
effects are connected is referred to as the effect routing.
The number of effects that can be connected will depend on the mode.
< Effect grouping >
In Combination mode and in a sequencer song, one insert effect can be used by two or more
timbres or tracks.
Effect grouping refers to the way in which two or more timbres (tracks) can be made into a
group that shares the insert effect of a specific timbre (track). This timbre (track) is referred to
as the grouping source.
< Effect size >
Each of the insert effects of the TRINITY series has an effect size of either 1, 2 or 4. The num-
ber of effects that can be used will depend on the effect sizes. (The separate Effect Guide lists
effects by their size.)
The total of the effect sizes that can be used will depend on the mode.
