A set of effect sounds is called an �SFX set.� Touching <Drums> at the bottom of the screen makes it so that percussion instruments are sounded.

For the tones of the SFX set, refer to �Drum/SFX Set List� (p. 170).

3.

Pressing the [Drums/SFX] button again to return to the previous sound.
The button�s indicator goes out, and the previous screen appears. The sound played with the keyboard reverts to the instrument sound used before the [Drums/SFX] button was pressed.

Adding Reverberation to Sounds (The Reverb Effect)
The KF-90 can apply a reverb effect to the notes you play on the keyboard. Applying reverb adds pleasing reverberation to what you play, so it sounds almost as if you were playing in a concert hall.
