Applying various effects to the sound
Using a pedal to modify the sound
With an external pedal, such as an expression pedal (the optional EV-5), pedal switch
(the optional DP-2/8) or foot switch (the optional BOSS FS-5U) connected to the
CONTROL PEDAL jack, you can then use the pedal to make changes in the tone.
Just as with the Modulation lever, you can select the function affected when the
pedal is pressed.
For further information, refer to
Pedal (Pedal Control Assign) (p. 126).

* When you want to apply the effect that causes the sounds being played to continue playing
(called the “hold effect”), connect a pedal switch (the optional DP-2/8) or foot switch (the
optional BOSS FS-5U) to the PEDAL HOLD jack.
Shifting the keyboard range in one-octave
steps (Octave Shift)
Octave Shift is a function that shifts the pitch of the keyboard in one-octave units.
This lets you shift the range of the keyboard to the most convenient range for
playing. This is also convenient in a situation below.
When playing sounds outside the keyboard’s range
While the RS-70 features a 61-key keyboard, with some songs you may want to play
notes even higher or lower. Also, when playing a Rhythm Set etc., there may be
percussion instruments that the RS-70’s keyboard is not able to access. In such cases,
you can use the Transpose function to play these notes.
fig.q05-10
1. Use OCT [-]/[+] to transpose the pitch.
You can transpose the pitch of the keyboard in 1 octave units (-3– +3 octaves)
If you are using DP-8, set
the DP-8’s function switch
to “Switch.”
