Chapter 7 Using the XV-5050 as a General MIDI Sound Module
Making Effects Settings in GM Mode
(EFFECTS)
In GM mode, a GM-exclusive Chorus and Reverb can be used.
Chorus and Reverb can be set independently.
Chorus: Adds depth and spaciousness to the sound.
Reverb: Adds the reverberation characteristics of halls or
auditoriums.
In GM mode, you cannot use Multi-effects.
The XV-5050’s onboard effects can be turned on/off as a whole.
For details, refer to “Turning Effects On/Off” (p. 69).
Basic Process of Making Effects Settings
When applying effects in GM mode, the following procedure is used
to make the settings.
1. Setting the Output Method of the Direct Sound (Output
Assign)
The settings made here determine for each Part whether or not
the jack used to output the sound, and the type of output (stereo
or mono).
2. Setting the Amount of Each Effect Applied (Send Level)
Sets the level (volume) of each effect signal to be sent for each
Part.
3. Making Chorus Settings
Select the Chorus type to be used, and set each of the parameters
for the selected Chorus.
4. Setting the Output Destination for the Sounds Passing
Through the Chorus
Select the output jack from which the sounds passing through
the Chorus will be output. You can also apply Reverb to the
sound that passes through Chorus.
5. Making Reverb Settings
Select the Reverb type to be used, and set each of the parameters
for the selected Reverb.
6. Setting the Output Destination for the Sounds Passing
Through the Reverb
Select the output jack from which the sounds passing through
the Reverb will be output.
OUTPUT
If the Mix/Parallel parameter (p. 107) is set to MIX, all sounds are output from the OUTPUT A (MIX) jacks in stereo.
Chorus and Reverb are output in mono at all times.
GM CHORUS
If the Mix/Parallel parameter (p. 107) is set to MIX, all sounds are output from the OUTPUT A (MIX) jacks in stereo.
