Chapter 3. Applying Effects to the Sound (INS-FX, REV/DELAY)
About the Onboard Effects
The SH-32 has two built-in effect units, and you can independently
edit each unit’s settings.
Insertion Effects
These effects are inserted directly into the signal path. Included here
are distortion, equalization, compression, Auto Wah, and other
effects. Imagine a “black box” that changes the sound itself.
Reverb/Delay (Looped Effects)
This type of effect taps the output from the signal path, and then
returns the effect-processed signal back to the signal path, mixing it
with the sound source. You can select reverb, delay, chorus, and
other effects that add reverberation or a wavering of the sound.
Ways of Connecting Effects
(INS > REV SERIES)
You can make settings that determine whether Insertion Effects and
Reverb/Delay are connected serially or in parallel in each Patch,
Rhythm Set, or Performance.
1. Press [INS > REV SERIES], causing the indicator to blink.
fig.03-01
2. Press [VALUE ▼/▲] to make the setting.
Select “ ” (Series) to connect serially or “ ” (Parallel)
to have the effects connected in parallel.
fig.03-02
When you connect in series, you can add delay to the distortion
sound. Additionally, when the effects are connected in parallel,
you can set the level of the signal sent to the reverb or delay for
each individual Performance or Rhythm Tone in a Rhythm Set.
3. When you have finished making the settings, press [EXIT],
causing the [INS > REV SERIES] indicator light to go off.
4. To save the settings, press [WRITE] and carry out the write
procedure (p. 63, p. 70, p. 73).
If you select an Insertion Effects that is configured internally in
mono when this is set to “ ” (series), the sound generator
section’s pan setting and the LFO pan will have no effect.
Using the Insertion Effects
(INS-FX)
This section explains the procedures used when working with the
Insertion Effects.
Turning the Insertion Effects On and
Off
You can set whether the Insertion Effects are used (switched on), or
not used (switched off) in each Patch, Rhythm Set, or Performance.
Turn these settings OFF when you wish to listen to the unprocessed
sound as you create a sound, or when you wish to use external
effects processors instead of the built-in effects.
In Part Assign mode (p. 71), the following procedure switches
each Part on and off, and the Insertion Effects for the selected
parts is switched on or off. In addition, you can turn the
individual Rhythm Tones (percussion instruments) in Rhythm
Tone Edit (p. 69) on and off.
1. Press [INS-FX], to switch the effects on or off.
The effect is on when the indicator is lit, and off when the
indicator light is off.

2. To save the settings, press [WRITE] and carry out the write
procedure (p. 63, p. 70, p. 73).
Selecting the Insertion Effects Type
(TYPE)
The SH-32 features 35 different types of internal Insertion Effects;
you can select the effect type for each individual Patch or Rhythm
Set.
1. Confirm that the SH-32 is in Patch mode.
2. Rotate the FX/SYSTEM knob to “TYPE” in the “INS-FX”
section.

Parameters” (p. 107).

procedure.
