Playing Effect Sounds
1.
Press the [Drums/SFX] button, getting its indicator to light up.

When you finger the keyboard now, each key plays a different effect sound.
You can listen the Sound Effect by touching the icons on the SFX screen.

A set of effect sounds is called an “SFX set.”
Touching <Drums> at the bottom of the screen makes it so that percussion
instruments are sounded.
3. Pressing the [Drums/SFX] button again to return to the
previous sound.
The button’s indicator goes out, and the previous screen appears.
The sound played with the keyboard reverts to the instrument sound used
before the [Drums/SFX] button was pressed.
Adding Reverberation to Sounds
(The Reverb Effect)
The KF-90 can apply a reverb effect to the notes you play on the keyboard.
Applying reverb adds pleasing reverberation to what you play, so it sounds
almost as if you were playing in a concert hall.

1. Adjust the [Reverb] knob to select the amount of reverb
effect to be applied.
Rotating the knob clockwise applies a deeper reverb, and rotating it
counterclockwise applies less reverb.
For the tones of the SFX set,
refer to “Drum/SFX Set
List” (p. 170).
NOTE
If you press the One Touch
Program [Piano] button for
the purposes of a piano
performance, settings for
the reverb effect that were
made using the [Reverb]
knob could get altered.
You can change the type of
reverb that’s applied.
Please refer to “Changing
the Type of Reverb Effect”
(p. 151).
