LF Damp Gain (-36~0dB)—Adjusts the amount of
damping applied to the frequency range selected with LF
Damp. With a setting of “0,” there will be no reduction of
the reverb’s low-frequency content.
HF Damp Freq. (4000~12500Hz)—Adjusts the fre-
quency above which the high-frequency content of the
reverb sound will be reduced, or “damped.”
HF Damp Gain (-36~0dB)—Adjusts the amount of
damping applied to the frequency range selected with
HF Damp. With a setting of “0,” there will be no reduc-
tion of the reverb’s high-frequency content.
Character (Room1, Room2, Room3, Hall1, Hall2, Plate,
Delay, Pan Delay)—Type of reverb.
Pre LPF (0~7)—Cuts the high frequency range of the
sound coming into the reverb. Higher values will cut
more of the high frequencies.
Level (0~127)—Output level of reverberation.
Time (0~127)—Time length of reverberation
Feedback (0~127)—Adjusts the amount of the delay
sound that is fed back into the effect when the Reverb
Character setting is “Delay” or “Pan Delay”.
Time (0~127)—Time length of reverberation (for
“Room1”~“Hall2”), or delay time (for “Delay” and “Pan-
Delay”).
HF Damp (200~8000Hz, Bypass)—Adjusts the fre-
quency above which the high-frequency content of the
reverb sound will be cut, or “damped.” If you do not want
to cut the high frequencies, set this parameter to
BYPASS.
Feedback (0~127)—(Only available for “Pan” and “Pan-
Delay”.) Adjusts the amount of delay feedback.

Note: Do not forget to save your settings to a User Program if
you want to keep them.
Chorus for Keyboard parts
Chorus broadens the spatial image of the sound and
creates a stereo impression. You can choose from 8
types of Chorus.
(1) Press the [EFFECTS] button.
On this page, you can switch the CHORUS processor
on and off by pressing the [OFF/ON] button icon to
the right of its “display”.
If you only want to select another chorus type, press
the CHORUS display and use the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial
or the [DEC]/[INC] buttons to select it. If you also need
to change certain aspects of that effect…
(2) Press the KEYBOARD EFFECTS CHORUS [EDIT] field
to access the Chorus parameters.
The display changes to:
(3) Press the [ON] (or [OFF]) field to switch the proces-
sor on (icon lights) or off (icon goes dark).
You can also do so on the EFFECTS page (see above).
(4) Press the field of the effect type you wish to use.
The options are:
Chorus1~Chorus3—These are conventional chorus
effects that add spaciousness and depth to the sound.
Flanger—This is an effect that sounds somewhat like a
jet airplane taking off and landing.
GM2 Chorus—This reverb effect is Roland’s standard
type for GM2-compatible tone generators.
Delay—This is a full-fledged delay effect that can be
used instead of a chorus or flanger. As you will see, there
are a lot of parameters to program just the effect you
need.
If you don’t want to edit the effects parameters, con-
tinue with the next step, otherwise jump to step (6).
(5) Press [Back] to return to the display page with the
“modules”.

Press the [EXIT] button to return to the main page.
(6) After selecting a chorus type, you may want to
fine-tune some of its parameters. If so, proceed as
follows:
Press the field of the parameter you wish to change
(the number of fields and their meaning depend on
the selected chorus type).
