EFFECTS The PortaTone is equipped with a wide variety of effects that can be used to enhance the sound of the voices. Four general categories of effects are provided - Reverb, Chorus, DSP, and Harmony - and each category has many effect types to choose from. Application of the effects is also exceptionally flexible. All four effects can be used simultaneously, and the degree of the Reverb, Chorus, and DSP effects can be adjusted independently for each of the voices: Main, Dual, and Split. REVERB The Reverb effect reproduces the natural ambient "wash" of sound that occurs when a instrument is played in a room or concert hall. A total of eight different Reverb types simulating various different performance environments are available. 1 Turn on the Reverb effect. Press the REVERB button.
