modulation, and green for effects of the Classic bank.

New reverbs feature the newly-developed REV-X algo-
rithm, delivering rich, high-density reverberation with
smooth decay, spaciousness, and depth that brings out
the best in the original signal.

or via MIDI messages.

values, or transmit/receive bulk data.Effects and tempo
