Note: If the MFX is on, the assigned Keyboard part is no
longer processed by the chorus effect. But the MFX also
contains chorus algorithms (either in isolation or in combi-
nation with other effects).
Chorus
Chorus broadens the spatial image of the sound and
creates a stereo impression. You can choose from 8
types.
When you switch on the KR111, none of the Keyboard
parts (Upper, Layer, Lower) are processed by the inter-
nal Chorus effect. Note also that the chorus effect
doesn’t affect the Keyboard part that is assigned to
the MFX if the MFX is set to anything but “Off”.
Changing the amount of chorus processing for
the Keyboard parts
(1) Press the [Function] button (its indicator must
light).
(2) Use the [√][®] buttons to select one of the following
parameters.
(3) Use [+][–] to select “0” if you don’t want the
selected Keyboard part to be processed by the
Chorus effect. Otherwise, set the desired value.
If you selected an MFX type (see p. 42), the Chr
UPP, Chr LAY or Chr LWR parameter has no
effect (even though it is displayed).
(4) Play a few notes on the keyboard to audition the
effect.
Don’t forget to activate the Lower or Layer part if you
wish to audition its chorus depth.
Note: This setting can be saved to a User Program (see
p. 48).
(5) Press the [Exit] button to leave this function.
