Reference Using a Microphone Talk Setting This function is ideal for making announcements between your singing performances. When singing a song, several effects such as reverb, delay and vocal harmony are usually assigned to the MIC/LINE IN Setup. When speaking to your audience, however, these effects may sound disturbing or unnatural. Whenever the [TALK] button is turned on, Delay and Vocal Harmony effects turn off and the amount of reverb lowers automatically. Talk settings can be customized as well, allowing you to add any desired effects to your voice as you speak to your audience. Turning the [TALK] button off automatically recalls the MIC/LINE IN Setup for singing again. Select a menu. Press the [MIC SETTING] button. If necessary, use the [TAB] buttons to call up the Talk Setting display. CAUTION Settings in the Talk Settings display are automatically saved to Flash ROM when you exit from the display. However, if you turn the power off without exiting from this display, the settings will be lost. NOTE • The settings on the Talk Setting display can be saved to the User drive or external devices on the [FUNCTION] → UTILITY → SYSTEM SETUP display as a System Setup file (page 196) For singing For talking Talk Setting Parameters VOLUME PAN REVERB DEPTH CHORUS DEPTH TOTAL VOLUME ATTENUATOR DSP MIC ON/OFF DSP MIC TYPE DSP MIC DEPTH This determines the output volume of the microphone sound.

The Tyros2 features a high grade three-band digital equalizer function for the microphone sound. ● Hz Adjusts the center frequency of the corresponding band. ● dB Boosts or cuts the level of the corresponding band by up to 12 dB. 177 Tyros2 Owner's Manual
