Power-Amplifier / Compressor Block (CP5 only)
Using the Power-Amplifier / Compressor block, you can choose either a faithful recreation of one of
many power amplifiers used with electric pianos or a compressor to further enhance the sound cre-
ated by the currently-selected part's Voice and Modulation Effect blocks. This block is available on
the CP5 only.
Selecting Power-Amplifier / Compressor Block Types
The following table identifies and describes the different power amplifier / compressor types avail-
able within the Power-Amplifier / Compressor block. If you have selected a voice from the PIANO or
E.PIANO category for the current part, this block’s selection page will give priority to power amplifi-
ers and a compressor specially designed for piano voices. Furthermore, a range of general-pur-
pose effects can also be selected from the block’s Other group. Meanwhile, if you have selected a
non-piano voice, the power amplifiers, the compressor, and all other effects will be available for
selection as insertion effects.

ries. These categories and effects are identical to those from the Modulation Effect
block, and more details can be obtained from the table on page 16.
