Room effects4.2.2
The EG2280USB/EG8280USB provides room effects simulating four reverb rooms
of different sizes. When you select a sound, the EG2280USB/EG8280USB also
selects an appropriate effect. If required, however, you can always select any
other effect. The following reverb room simulations are available:
CHAMBER: Simulates a small room.
CONCERT: Simulates a small concert hall.
CHURCH: Simulates a large concert hall.
THEATER: Simulates a typical stage ambience.
Keep pressing the REVERB button until the effect of your choice has 1)
been selected.
The active effect is shown by an LED lighting up next to the effect name.
If none of the four LEDs lights up, the room effect is disabled.
Keep the REVERB button pressed while adjusting the original vs. effect signal 2)
ratio in the VALUE/SONG section using the -/ NO and +/YES buttons.

Modulation effects4.2.3
The EG2280USB/EG8280USB provides a modulation effect featuring four
different types of effect. When you select a sound, the EG2280USB/EG8280USB
automatically adds an appropriate effect for some of the sounds. If required,
however, you can always select any other effect. The following modulation
effects are available:
CHORUS: Chorus effect. ”widens” the sound.
FLANGER: Time-shifted layering of sounds. Produces a “floating” sound.
TREMOLO: Rapid, constantly repeated changes in the volume of
the sound.
DELAY: Echo effect. Produces time-shifted repetitions of the sound
that decay over time.
Keep pressing the SPECIAL button until the effect of your choice has 1)
been selected.
The selected effect is shown by an LED lighting up next to the effect name.

Using the pedals4.3
The EG2280USB/EG8280USB is equipped with three foot pedals performing the
same functions as the pedals on an acoustic grand piano. Normally, the pedals
are used in accordance with the instructions given in the music, where they are
marked by special symbols. It is useful to know how sound is produced on an
acoustic piano to better understand how the pedals work.
When you strike a key, a hammer hits several strings for each note; the strings
produce a tone with a defined pitch. When you let go of the key, a damper felt
falls down on the strings to stop them from vibrating any longer. As a result,
the tone decays quickly. However, if the key is held down, the tone is sustained
for a while before it decays completely. In this case, the tone decays only after a
certain time.
