The split point you set will be retained until the piano is switched off. 4.4 Adding Reverb The HP-237e allows you to add reverberation to what you play on the keyboard. The Reverb effect provides a pleasant reverberation that gives the impression that you are performing in a concert hall or similar space.

The Chorus effect creates a fuller sound with a distinct “stereo” impression ideal for pop music. The setting of the Chorus effect is memorized independently for each sound: when the power is turned on, the Chorus Effect will be applied to the “Electric Piano 1 ”, “Electric Piano 2” and “Vibraphone” Tones, and off for the other sounds. 1.

When you cancel the Layer or Split mode, you will return to the default Chorus setting of each sound. Note: The amount of Chorus can be changed.
