Effects

The EZ-250i is equipped with a wide variety of effects that can be used to enhance
the sound of the voices. The EZ-250i has three separate effect systems - Harmony,
Reverb and Chorus - and each has many different effect types to choose from.

Harmony
The Harmony section features a variety of performance effects that enhance the
melodies you play when using the accompaniment styles of the EZ-250i. A total of
twenty-six Harmony types are available. (See page 31.)
Tremolo, Trill and Echo effects can be used even if accompaniment is off.
There are five different Harmony Types that automatically create harmony parts (for
notes played in the upper area of the keyboard) to match the accompaniment chords.

Turn on/off the Harmony effect.

Press the [HARMONY] button.

Harmony type and Harmony Volume (when Harmony Type 1 - 5 is selected) can be set in
the Function mode (page 67).

IMPORTANT
For the first five Harmony Types (Duet, Trio, Block, Country, and Octave), chords
must be played in the Accompaniment area of the keyboard.
The Harmony voice(s) change in pitch to best match the chords you play.
The speed of the Trill, Tremolo, and Echo effects depends on the Tempo setting
(page 31).

NOTE
Each voice of the EZ-250i has its own independent Harmony setting.

Reverb
The Reverb effect reproduces the natural ambient "wash" of sound that occurs when a
instrument is played in a room or concert hall. A total of nine different Reverb
types simulating various different performance environments are available. (See
page 32.)

NOTE
Nine additional Reverb Types are available when controlling the EZ-250i from a MIDI
device. (For details, See page 80.)
Each style of the EZ-250i has its own independent Reverb setting.

The following parameters can be set in the Function mode (pages 67).

Chorus

modulation. Two basic types are provided: Chorus and Flanger. Chorus produces a
thicker, warmer, and more animated sound, whereas Flanger creates a swirling,
metallic effect. A total of four Chorus types are available. (See page 32.)
