Selecting various digital reverb effects (REVERB)
This control enables you to select various digital reverb effects for adding extra depth and expression to the sound, and
creating a realistic acoustic ambience.
Selecting Reverb Type
Press one of the G#6-C7 keys while holding the [VOICE] button (see Quick Opera-
tion Guide). The current Reverb Type setting appears on the display while both
controls are held.
Even if the REVERB effect is OFF, a “Soundboard Reverb” effect will be applied
when the
Grand Piano 1 or 2 voice is selected.
Adjusting Reverb Depth
Press one of the A2-F#4 keys while holding the [VOICE] button (see Quick Opera-
tion Guide). The current Reverb Depth setting appears on the display while both
controls are held.
Transposition – [TRANSPOSE]
This instrument’s Transpose function makes it possible to easily match the pitch of the keyboard in semitone intervals to
the range of a singer or other instruments. For example, if you set the transposition amount to “5,” playing the C key pro-
duces a pitch of F. In this way, you can play a song as though it were in C major, and the H11 will automatically transpose
it to the key of F.
Press one of the F#5-F#6 keys while holding the
[BGM] button (see Quick Operation Guide). The cur-
rent amount of transposition appears on the display
while both controls are held.
To transpose the pitch down (in semitone steps)
Press one of the F#5-B5 keys while holding the [BGM] button.
To transpose the pitch up (in semitone steps)
Press one of the C#6-F#6 keys while holding the [BGM] button.
To initialize the normal pitch
Press the C6 key while holding the [BGM] button.
TIP
The default Reverb Type (including
OFF) and depth settings are different
for each voice.

Key Reverb Type Description
G#6 1 (ROOM) This setting adds a continuous reverb effect to the sound, similar to
the acoustic reverberation you would hear in a room.
A6 2 (HALL 1) For a “bigger” reverb sound, use the HALL 1 setting. This effect sim-
ulates the natural reverberation of a small-size concert hall.
A#6 3 (HALL 2) For a truly spacious reverb sound, use the HALL 2 setting. This
effect simulates the natural reverberation of a large concert hall.
B6 4 (STAGE) Simulates the reverb of a stage environment.
C7 OFF (OFF) When no reverb effect is selected, no REVERB indicator is lit.
TIP
depth 0: no effect
depth 20: maximum Reverb Depth
TIP
Default depth settings are different for
each voice.
