Split points
In Split mode, the keyboard is divided into
Lower and Upper regions, allowing you to
play separate sounds in each region.
The Lower region extends from the leftmost
key to the key you specify.
The Upper region extends from the rightmost
key to the key you specify.
The keys that specify these regions are called
the “split points.”
