Playing and editing Combinations

Quick Layer/Split

The Quick Layer/Split feature makes it easy to create simple

layers and splits. Starting with either a Program or

Combination, you can add another Program as a layer, or

split the keyboard so that the current sound plays on one side

of the keyboard (either upper or lower), and a different

Program plays on the other.

All of the Quick Layer/Split controls are non-destructive and

reflected immediately when playing on the keyboard. You

can experiment with different settings, and fine-tune until

you find the perfect sound.

While you can start with either a Program or a Combination,

the additional split or layer sound must always be a Program,

and the results of Quick Layer/Split are always saved as a

new Combination. After saving, you can then edit the new

Combination as desired.

For more basic details on Quick Layer/Split, see “Quick

Layer/Split” on page 47.

Quick Layer example: adding strings to a piano Combination

Quick Layer dialog

Here, we’ll walk through a typical use of Quick Layer:

adding a string layer to a piano sound. Many of the steps are

identical to the Quick Layer functionality in Program Mode,

but there are a few differences unique to Combination Mode.

Let’s start with the piano:

1. In Combination mode, select a piano sound-for

instance, INT-D-082: Piano for Ballads.

For details on how to select a Combination, see “Selecting

Combinations” on page 67.
