Using effects
The RD-170 comes with three digital effects: Chorus, Reverb and Sympathetic Resonance. While Chorus and Reverb
are available for all Tones, Sympathetic Resonance can only be used with piano Tones.
Adding Reverb
By using the Reverb effect, you can obtain pleasant
reverberations like those in a concert hall. The level
of the Reverb effect can be set in eight steps.
(1) First decide for which part you wish to switch
on the Reverb effect.
In Layer and Split (page 14) modes, you need to
press and hold the [LOWER] button while per-
forming the next step to switch the Reverb for
the Lower part.
In Whole Upper or Whole Lower mode, there is
only one part, so you can press [REVERB] right
away. Its indicator then lights in red (Upper) or
green (Lower).
(2) Press [REVERB] and confirm that it lights.
(3) If necessary, press the [LOWER] button and
repeat steps (1) and (2).
(4) Set the depth by holding down [REVERB]
while pressing [DEC÷NO]/[INC÷YES].
The word “depth” refers to the amount of
Reverb that is added to the selected part (also
called the “Send Level”). The current depth
value appears in the display. It applies to both
parts.
(5) Press [REVERB] again to switch the effect off
for the selected part.
To switch it off for the Lower part in Layer or
Split mode, you must hold down [LOWER] while
pressing [REVERB].
Adding Chorus
Chorus is an effect that gives the impression that
several instruments are being played at the same
time. The level of the Chorus effect can be set in
eight steps.
(1) First decide for which part you wish to switch
on the Chorus effect.
In Layer and Split (page 14) modes, you need to
press and hold the [LOWER] button while per-
forming the next step to switch the Chorus for
the Lower part.
In Whole Upper or Whole Lower mode, there is
only one part, so you can press [CHORUS] right
away. Its indicator then lights in red (Upper) or
green (Lower).
(2) Press [CHORUS] and confirm that it lights.
(3) If necessary, press the [LOWER] button and
repeat steps (1) and (2).
(4) Set the depth by holding down [CHORUS]
while pressing [DEC÷NO]/[INC÷YES].
The current Chorus depth value appears in the
display.
(5) Press [CHORUS] again to switch the Chorus
effect off for the selected part.
To switch it off for the Lower part in Layer or
Split mode, you must hold down [LOWER] while
pressing [CHORUS].
