1 -2 DELAY Determines the amount of time that elapses between the playing of a key and the start of the vibrato effect (see diagram). Higher settings increase the delay of the vibrato onset. 1 -3 DEPTH Determines the intensity of the vibrato effect (see diagram). Higher settings result in a more pronounced vibrato. 1 -4 SPEED Determines the speed of the vibrato effect (see diagram). Vibrato Control Delay Speed Depth NOTE: When you set the DEPTH to 0, the Vibrato function will be inactive. Voice Controls and Effects 2 TOUCH VIB. (TOUCH VIBRATO) NOTE: 4 On/Off switch for the Touch Vibrato function. In the case of the EL-500 the Touch Touch Vibrato lets you apply vibrato to individual notes as you play them. While playing a key, press down harder on it to give the note vibrato. The harder you press the key down, the greater the vibrato will be. Vibrato value of the Pedal Voice section is grayed out and is not accessible. However, the value can be controlled from the MDR or an external device through MIDI. 3 SLIDE (Lead voices only) Slide applies a portamento effect to notes played in legato. For example, if you play one note, then play another before completely releasing the first note, the pitch of the first note will "slide" up or down to the second note. The Slide function is effective within a one-octave range. 3-1 ON/KNEE/OFF On/Off switch and knee lever selector for the Slide effect. 3 -2 TIME Determines the speed of the slide or portamento effect. The higher the value that is set, the slower the speed. 4 TUNE (Lead voices only) Determines the pitch of the Lead voice. This control lets you detune the Lead voice relative to the other voices of the Electone, for producing a richer sound. The higher the value set, the higher the pitch. Range: 0-24 (max. 28.88 cents; 1 step= Ca.1.2cents) 2 Selecting from Effect Set Pages Pressing the EFFECT SET button in the DISPLAY SELECT section calls up the Effect Set pages.
