You can make settings for the multi-effect applied to a tone.
The multi-effects are general-purpose effects that modify the sound itself, and are able to completely transform the
character of the sound. There are 84 types of effects, and you can choose the type that’s suitable for your purposes.
Some types consist of a single effect such as distortion or flanger, and other types combine effects in series or in parallel.
Reverb and chorus are also provided as multi-effect types, and these are handled independently from the Reverb (p. 74) and
Chorus (p. 75) effects described later.
The RD-700NX lets you apply two multi-effects to the tones. The two multi-effects are connected in series.
