The diagram below shows the signal flow of the three effects when the
CS2x is in Multi Play mode and the Variation effect is designated as a
System effect.
Each of the 16 Parts has a Dry send

1 level which controls the amount

of original signal for each Part (page 60). Reverb send

2, Chorus send

3, and Variation send 4 levels control the amount of effect applied to
each Part, determined by the Multi Edit EFFECT REV SEND, CHO SEND
and VARI SEND parameters (between 0~127), respectively (page 60).
Reverb return

5, Chorus return 6 and Variation return 7 levels can

also be controlled to determine the amount of each effect applied (page
60).
The Send Chorus to Reverb

8 level is sent from the Chorus effect to the

Reverb effect (page 60). The Send Variation to Reverb

9 and Send

Variation to Chorus

) levels are sent from the Variation effect to the

Reverb and Chorus effects, respectively (page 60). These three
parameters let you make series and parallel effect configurations which
provide enormous sound enhancement flexibility.

n

If you select Effect Off in the Variation Type menu, the Layers which
have the VARI SEND function set to ON will not sound. When you
don’t want to use the Variation Effect on the Layers, set the VARI
TYPE to Thru.

Reverb and Chorus send levels for Layers with the Variation Send
On/Off switch set to ON are determined by the highest numbered
Layer. For example, if Layers 1, 2 and 3 are switched on, then the
Reverb and Chorus send level for Layer 3 will determine the
amount of effect applied to each Layer.

n

In Performance mode effect send levels for Parts 5~16 (as well as
Layers 1~4) can be controlled by an external MIDI sequencer. The
Variation effect cannot be applied to Parts 5~16.

Multi Play Mode

The diagram below shows the signal flow of the three effects when the
CS2x is in Multi Play mode and the Variation effect is designated as an
Insertion effect.

n

In Multi Play mode the various effect settings can be controlled by
MIDI system exclusive Parameter Change messages (received from
an external sequencer or computer). The illustrations at right show
the Reverb, Chorus and Variation send parameters which can be
controlled from the CS2x panel. For details about the others, refer
to each page number as listed in the following explanation.

n

When the CS2x is in Multi Play mode, the Variation Effect is
automatically reset as an Insertion Effect. If you want to set the
Variation Effect as a System Effect, you need to send a parameter
change message to the CS2x from an external MIDI sequencer.

The Variation (Insertion) effect can be applied to any one of the 16 Parts
at a time, designated by switching the Multi Edit EFFECT VARI SEND
parameter to ON (page 60). The ratio of Variation effect (wet) signal to
original (dry) signal is determined by the wet/dry balance

1, which in

turn controls the amount of Variation effect signal applied to the Part
(page 60).
Although only one Part at a time can have the Variation effect applied
to it, all Parts, including the Part with Variation effect, can have Reverb
and Chorus applied, determined by the Reverb send

2 and Chorus

send

3 level settings (between 0~127) of the Multi Edit EFFECT REV

SEND and CHO SEND parameters, respectively (page 60). Reverb
return

4 and Chorus return 5 levels can also be controlled to

determine the amount of each effect applied. The Send Chorus to
Reverb

6 level from the Chorus effect to the Reverb effect can also be

controlled in a series, if you assign it to the ASSIGN 1 knob (page 47);
in this case, the Chorus return % level should be set to “0”.
