Enhancing the Sound

2

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.
