DSP
The DSP effect section provides many reverb and chorus effects, plus a
wealth of other useful and dynamic effects for enhancing and changing the
sound of the voices. Included among these miscellaneous effects are
reverse gate reverb, phaser, rotary speaker, tremolo, echo, delay, distortion,
equalization, and wah. A total of thirty-three DSP types are available.
1 Turn on the DSP effect and set the DSP Type in the
Function mode.
Do this in the normal way:
1) Press the FUNCTION button.
2) Select the desired Function parameter number (#35, #36) with the
numeric keypad. (For a list of the DSP Types, see page 45.)
Restoring the Default Value
If you’ve changed the parameter setting, you can instantly restore
the default setting by pressing both +/- buttons simultaneously.
• The DSP effect is applied
only to the keyboard-played
voices.
• These settings are not
saved when you turn off the
power. If you wish to save
them, save them to a User
bank in the One Touch
Setting feature (page 72).
• Eighteen additional DSP
Types are available when
controlling the PortaTone
from a MIDI device. (For
details, see page 116.)
3 Exit the Function mode.
Once you’ve made all desired settings, press one of the other mode but-
tons (SONG, STYLE, or VOICE).
The DSP effect can also be
turned on and off with a
connected footswitch. (See
page 91.)
EFFECTS
3) After “FUNCTION” stops flashing, change the value/setting (with
the numeric keypad). For on/off settings, use the +/- buttons.

2 Set the DSP Send Level for the desired voice(s).
The Main, Dual, and Split voices can each be set to have different amounts
of DSP. Use the corresponding DSP Send Level parameters in the Function
mode (Main: #06, Dual: #16, Split: #26) to control this. (See pages 31, 35,
37.)
If the DSP Send Level is set
to a value near or at “000,”
the DSP effect may not be
heard.
