Using the XV-2020 Effects
PATCH/RHYTHM KEY TVA
When the Output Assign parameter (p. 46)/(p. 63) is set to anything but TONE, the setting made here has no effect.
When outputting in mono, the Pan setting is disabled.
Chorus and Reverb are output in mono at all times.
When the STRUCTURE (PATCH:COMMON) parameter has a setting of Type 2–10, the outputs of Tones 1 and 2 will be
combined with Tone 2, and the outputs of Tones 3 and 4 will be combined with Tone 4. For this reason, the setting of Tone 1
will follow the setting of Tone 2, and the setting of Tone 3 will follow the setting of Tone 4 (p. 48).
For more on how to set each effect, refer to the pages shown below.
• Multi-effects -> (p. 76)
• Chorus -> (p. 76)
• Reverb -> (p. 76)
Performance Mode Settings
The Multi-effect can be used in a Performance.
While you set the amount of effect applied separately to each individual part, depending on the settings,
you can also make the amount of the Tone applied more effective. Furthermore, you can take the Multi-
effects you have applied to a Patch in a Part and apply them to the entire Performance, or just part of the
Performance.
* On the XV-2020, only the MFX-A settings are valid in Performance mode.
Basic Process of Making Effects Settings
When applying effects in Performance mode, the following procedure is used to make the settings.
1. Setting the Output Method Used by the Direct Sound (Output Assign) (-> p. 79)
Settings determining whether or not the signal passes through the Multi-effects, the jack used to output
the sound, and the type of output (stereo or mono) for each Part. You can also settings for a Patch or
Rhythm Set assigned to a Part.
2. Setting the Amount of Each Effect Applied (Send Level -> p. 79)
Sets the level (volume) of each effect signal to be sent for each Part.
3. Making Multi-Effects Settings (-> p. 80)
Select the type of Multi-effects to be used, and set the parameters for the selected Multi-effect. You can also
Multi-effects settings for a Patch or Rhythm Set assigned to a Part.
4. Setting the Multi-Effects Controller (-> p. 80)
When using MIDI messages to change the Multi-effects parameters in realtime, select the Multi-effects
controller.
5.
Setting the Output Destination and Volume for the Sounds Passing Through the Multi-Effects (-> p. 80)
Select the output jack and set the output level (volume) of the sounds passing through the Multi-effects.
You can also apply Chorus or Reverb to the sound that passes through Multi-effects.
