Pre LPF (0~7)—Cuts the high frequency range of the
sound coming into the chorus. Higher values will cut
more of the high frequencies.
Level (0~127)—Output level of the chorus signal.
Feedback (0~127)—Adjusts the amount of the chorus
sound that is fed back into the effect.
Delay (0~127)—Adjusts the delay time from the direct
sound until the chorus sound is heard.
Rate (0~127)—This parameter sets the speed (fre-
quency) at which the chorus sound is modulated. Higher
values result in faster modulation.
Depth (0~127)—This parameter sets the depth at which
the chorus sound is modulated. Higher values result in a
more pronounced modulation.
Reverb Send (0~127)—This parameter sets the amount
of chorus sound that is sent to the Reverb processor. The
value “127” effectively allows you to connect the chorus
and reverb effects in series (Chorus before Reverb). If you
do not want the chorus signal to be processed by the
Reverb effect, set this value to “0”.
L/R/C Delay Sync (msec, Note)—Use this parameter to
specify whether (“Note”) or not (“msec”) the delay time
should be synchronized to the Arranger or Recorder
tempo. Depending on your choice, the setting range of
the following parameter refers to a time (msec) or a note
value.
L/R/C Delay [msec] (0~1000ms)
L/R/C Delay [Note] (1/64T, 1/64, 1/32T, 1/32, 1/16T, 1/
32., 1/16, 1/8T, 1/16., 1/8, 1/4T, 1/8., 1/4, 1/2T, 1/4., 1/
2, 1/1T, 1/2., 1/1, 2/1T, 1/1., 2/1)—Specifies the delay
time. This can be either a time value (“msec”) or a note
value, depending on how you set the “Delay Sync”
parameter above. “T” means “triplet” and a “.” refers to a
dotted note. “2/1” means that each repetition comes
after two measures/bars. The advantage of working with
a note value is that the delay effect always runs in sync
with the current Arranger or Recorder tempo.
C Feedback (–98~+98%)—Adjusts the proportion of the
delay sound that is fed back into the effect. Negative (–)
settings invert the phase.
HF Damp (200~8000Hz, Bypass)—Adjusts the fre-
quency above which sound fed back to the effect will be
cut. If you do not want to cut the high frequencies, set
this parameter to BYPASS.
L/R/C Level (0~127)—Volume of each delay line (there
are three – left, center and right).

Note: Do not forget to save your settings to a User Program if
you want to keep them.
Using the multi-effects processor
of the Keyboard parts (MULTI FX)
Your E-80 contains a multi-effects processor that can
be used for processing any Keyboard part you like.
There is a similar processor for external audio signals
(with the same algorithms), which is covered on
page 119. And there are also 3 MFX processors for the
Style/Song parts.
But let’s first look at the MFX processor for the Key-
board parts.
(1) Press the PART ON/OFF [UP1] button (it must light).
(2) Select the “Distort Gt1” sound on page 3 of the
[E.GUITAR/BASS] family.
(3) Play a few notes on the keyboard and switch the
[MULTI¥FX] button on/off to hear the difference.
The MFX is available for all Keyboard parts.
Press the [EFFECTS] button to call up the following
page.
Press the [MFX¥PART¥ASSIGN] field.
Press the field(s) of the Keyboard part(s) that should
use the selected MFX effect.
Note: There is only one MFX processor that is shared by all
Keyboard parts.
