Parameters Assigned to the Knobs The chart below lists some interesting ways to use the various effects that can be assigned to the knobs. Some Ideas for Using the Knobs Number/Effect Try This z FILTER Select a synth-type lead or pad voice (see the Voice List of the separate Data List). Turn Knob B all the way up and operate Knob A while playing for some spacey, floating 1980's effects. x EFFECT Select a voice that sounds as though it already has reverb and chorus effects applied, and turn Knob A and Knob B all the way down to hear the "direct" sound of the voice. You can then turn the Knob A and Knob B settings up to add extra impact and richness to the voice. c EG Select a piano voice, and turn Knob B all the way up and Knob A to about the 3 o'clock position. This should give you a majestic, organlike sound. The attack time is quite long so play the keys and hold them to let the sound come in fully. Ideal for slow pieces. v STYLE FILTER Select style 44, Euro Trance. Turn accompaniment on and start style playback (page 22). Set Knob B to about 3 o'clock, and Knob A to about 8 o'clock. The overall sound of the style should be a bit muffled, with the drums emphasized for solid rhythmic impact. b SOUND IMAGE Rotate the Knobs during Style playback to create a shifting sound effect, as if the performance members were concentrated at the center of the stage center and alternately moving to fill the entire stage. This also lets you create various sounds from simulated mono to wider stereo, even when playing only a single Voice (Grand Piano, Octave Strings, etc.). Reference 38 PSR-E433 Owner's Manual
