Applying Effects to Tones
E-33
Applying E ffects to Tones
This piano provides you with a selection of effects that you
can apply to tones.
The following shows how the effects of this piano are
organized.
JDSP
DSP effects are applied to the connection between the sound
source and output (PA). You can select distortion and
modulation effects.
JREVERB
Reverb simulates the acoustics of specific types of
environments. You can choose from among 8 different reverb
effects, including “Room” and “Hall”.
JCHORUS
The chorus effect gives sound greater depth by causing it to
vibrate. You can choose from among 8 different chorus
effects, including “Chorus” and “Flanger”.
See the list on page A-11 for information about the types of
DSP, CHORUS and REVERB effects that are available.
Use the following procedures to configure the DSP, reverb, or
chorus effects.
1. Press the EFFECT/(L. METER) button.
2. Press the [ ] button twice to display the DSP
effect setting screen.
3. Use the [+] and [–] buttons or the selector dial to
select a DSP effect type.
Select “OFF” to turn off the DSP effect.
The display exits the DSP effect setting screen if
you do not perform any operation for about 10
seconds. You can also exit the DSP effect setting
screen by pressing the EXIT/NO button.

Applying Effects to Tones
E-34
1. Press the EFFECT/(L. METER) button.
2. Use the [+] and [–] buttons or the selector dial to
select a reverb effect type.
Select “OFF” to turn off the reverb effect.
The display exits the reverb effect setting screen if
you do not perform any operation for about 10
seconds. You can also exit the reverb effect setting
screen by pressing the EXIT/NO button.
1. Press the EFFECT/(L. METER) button.
2. Press the [ ] button to display the chorus
effect setting screen.
3. Use the [+] and [–] buttons or the selector dial to
select a chorus effect type.
Select “OFF” to turn off the chorus effect.
The display exits the chorus effect setting screen
if you do not perform any operation for about 10
seconds. You can also exit the chorus effect
setting screen by pressing the EXIT/NO button.
Playing a demo tune (page E-11) automatically changes
the effect to the one that is assigned to the tune. You
cannot change or cancel a demo tune effect.
Changing the effect setting while sound is being output by
the piano causes a slight break in the sound when the
effect changes.
A number of tones, called “DSP tones” include automatic
DSP settings to bring out the full effect of the tone. If you
assign a DSP tone to a keyboard part (Upper1, Upper2,
Lower1, or Lower2), DSP turns on automatically and the
DSP selection changes*1 in accordance with the settings of
the DSP tone. Also, the mixer Mode DSP on/off setting for
the keyboard part to which the DSP tone is assigned is
turned on.*2
*1. When the mixer Mode DSP setting is turned on for
Upper1, the DSP selection and mixer Mode DSP on/off
setting of Upper2, Lower1, and Lower2 are
unchanged, even if you assign a DSP tone to them.
*2. The mixer Mode DSP on/off settings for all the other
parts are automatically turned off. Because of this,
DSP effects previously applied to these parts are
cancelled, which can make their tone sound different.
Whether or not an effect is applied to the parts that are
sounding also depends on mixer Mode Reverb Send,
Chorus Send, and DSP on/off settings. See “Using the
Mixer” on page E-46 for more information.
The reverb and chorus of parts whose mixer Mode DSP
setting is turned on is determined by the system setting of
the keyboard settings, and not by mixer Mode settings. See
“Keyboard Settings” on page E-71 for more information.

The 3-step lesson feature takes you through the three distinct
steps described below to help you learn to play tunes on the
piano.
In this step, pressing any key on the keyboard plays the
correct note, so you can concentrate on getting the timing
right without worrying about playing the right note. The sub-
melody (obbligato) waits until you press a key before
proceeding to the next phrase.
1. Select the Music Library tune you want to use.
2. Press the STEP 1 button to start Step 1 play.
After a count sounds*, the keyboard stands by
and waits for you to play the first note of the tune.
* Only when Pre Count is turned on. See
“Setting: Lesson” on page E-75 for more
information.
1Fingering

3. Press any keyboard keys to play the melody
(right hand part).
The key for the next note to be played flashes
while the keyboard waits for you to play it. When
you press any key to play the note, the key
remains lit as the note plays.
Accompaniment (or the left-hand part) waits
until you press any keyboard key. The
accompaniment notes stop playing automatically
if you do not press any key within about 10
seconds after the flashing starts. Pressing a
keyboard key restarts accompaniment.
If you accidentally press more than one key in
succession, accompaniment is played for the
corresponding number of notes.
Pressing more than one key at the same time
counts as a single melody note. Pressing a key
while another key is held down is counted as two
melody notes.
4. To stop play at any time, press the STOP or
START/STOP button.
You can also use fast forward and fast reverse operations
with Step 1 play.
You can use phrase repeat with Step 1.
During lesson Step 1 and Step 2, notes, their lengths, and keys
you need to press to play them are indicated as described
below.
JNote
The keyboard key you should press lights. The actual note is
shown in the staff notation area of the display. The display
also shows the fingers you should use to play notes.

Accompaniment (or the left-hand part) waits
until you press the flashing keyboard key. The
accompaniment notes stop playing automatically
if you do not press the flashing key within about
10 seconds after the flashing starts. Pressing the
flashing key restarts accompaniment.
If more than one key lights when you are using a
two-hand tune, it means that you must press all
of the keys that are lit.
4. To stop play at any time, press the STOP or
START/STOP button.
You can also use fast forward and fast reverse operations
with Step 2 play.
You can use phrase repeat with Step 2. See “Looping a
Musical Phrase” on page E-37.
The key for the next note to be played
flashes relativly slowy.
One beat before you need to play the
note, the key starts to flash quickly.
The key remains lit, without flashing,
when the digital piano is standing by
waiting for you to play it.
The key light goes out when you press
the key.
Step 2 – Master the melody.

part practice. If you need to press a key with your thumb, for
example, voice fingering guide says, “One!” In the case of a
chord to be played with your thumb, middle and little finger,
voice fingering guide says, “One, three, five!”
voice fingering guide calls out fingerings only when you do
not press the proper key when you should.
Use the lesson setting menu to turn voice fingering guide
on and off. See “Setting: Lesson” on page E-75 for more
information.
Note that voice fingering guide is available in either English
or Japanese. Use the lesson setting menu to select the
language you want to use. See “Setting: Lesson” on page
E-75 for more information.
This is where you enjoy actually playing the tunes you learn
using Step 1 and Step 2. The key light system still shows you
which keyboard keys to press, but accompaniment proceeds
at normal speed regardless of whether or not you play the
correct notes.
1. Select the Music Library tune you want to play.

START/STOP button.
With Step 3 of two-hand practice, key lighting also indicates
note length. In this case, lighting indicates the keys you
should press, but the next key to be pressed does not flash.
With Step 3, the finger number for the next note does not
appear on the display. Only the finger number of the
current note is displayed.
You can also use pause, fast forward and fast reverse
operations with Step 3 play.
If you change the step, arrangement level, or lesson part
during step lesson playback, the change goes into effect
from the currently playing measure.

Using the Mixer
As mentioned above, the word “part” as used in relation to
this piano has the same meaning as it does in an orchestra or
band. It also refers to the Upper1, Upper2, Lower1, and
Lower2 parts of the keyboard that you use when layering or
splitting keyboard tones (page E-19).
The following example shows a typical list of parts when you
are using auto accompaniment with Upper1 and Upper2
tones layered in the melody keyboard range.
Much like a real band, auto accompaniment patterns and
patterns you create with the sequencer are played using
multiple “parts”, such as chords, bass, and drum parts. The
mixer provides you with the means to turn individual parts
on (so they sound) and off (so they don’t), and to change the
tone, volume, pan, effect, and other parameters of each part.
This piano is capable of producing a total of 30 different parts.
Parts can be broadly classified as one of two different groups:
Group A and Group B.
JGroup A
Group A parts are the ones the piano normally uses for auto
accompaniments and to produce the notes you play. There
are 14 Group A parts, including six “melody parts” (for
keyboard notes), and eight “accompaniment parts” (for auto
accompaniment).
JGroup B
There are 16 Group B parts that the piano uses for sounding
MIDI input from an external source. Each of the Group B
parts also corresponds to one of the 16 tracks of the piano’s
sequencer (page E-53).

This parameter can be used to turn each part on (sounds) and
off (does not sound). The current on/off status of a part is
indicated by the on-screen level meter. See “Level Meter
Screen” on page E-13 for more information.
JVolume: 0 to 127
This parameter adjusts the overall volume of each part.
JPan: –64 to 63*
Use this parameter to adjust the pan setting (volume balance
between the left and right speakers). A value of 0 puts the
speakers in balance, so the stereo center is halfway between
the two speakers. A smaller value shifts the stereo center left,
while a larger value shifts it right.
* When “On” is selected for the DSP you are using, these
settings are applied in accordance with each DSP
parameter setting.
The mixer lets you control the effects applied to each
individual part, making it different from the Effect Mode,
whose settings are applied to all parts in general.
JReverb Send: 0 to 127
This parameter controls how much reverb is applied to a part.
A setting of 0 turns reverb off, while a setting of 127 applies
maximum reverb.
JChorus Send: 0 to 127
This parameter controls how much chorus send is applied to
a part. A setting of 0 turns chorus send off, while a setting of
127 applies maximum chorus send.
“Chorus Send” does not work with drum sounds.
JDSP: On, Off
You can use this parameter to turn DSP off for a particular
channel, or to turn it on.

Using the Mixer
You can use these parameters to individually tune each of the
parts individually.
JCoarse Tune: –24 to 24
This parameter tunes individual parts in semitone units,
which means that changing the value by 1 changes the tuning
by one semitone.
The setting you make here is added to the transpose
setting described in “Transposing the Piano” on page
E-31.
“Coarse Tune” does not work with drum sounds.
JFine Tune: –64 to 63
This parameter allows fine tuning of individual parts. A
setting of –64 lowers the tuning by one semitone from normal,
while 63 represents a rise of one semitone. This setting is
applied by combining it with the “Tune setting” item of the
Keyboard Settings.
