Effect Type Reverb Hall
Bizarre, slithery lead sound. Probably unsuitable for classics or country, but nice for a Chinese or Indian type of
blues sound.
CS1 and CS2 adjust the balance of sitar and strings.
FC1 and FC2 control the sitar element only; you can drop CS2 all the way down to eliminate the strings,
then work exclusively with the sitar sound.
For effective string play, be sure to get the right aftertouch vibrato effect.

Hints If portamento seems too long, adjust the Quick Edit POR TIME parameter.
