Effects
In addition to reverb, various other effects can be applied to the selected sound, altering the tonal character and
feeling of the instrument. As with reverb, some sound types enable certain effects automatically in order to enhance
tonal quality. The CN35 digital piano features thirteen different effect types.

* The soft pedal can be used to alternate the speed of the rotary simulation between ‘Slow’ and ‘Fast’ effect modes.
