Quick Split
A typical example of a split is when you play a piano or
electric piano with your right hand (in the upper region) and
a bass sound with your left hand (in the lower region). As an
example, here’s how to create this sound.
1. In Program mode, select a piano program.
Please see steps 1–2 of the “Quick Layer” section on
page 29.
Note: The procedure will be smoother if you first select
the sound that you want to play in the upper region of the
keyboard.
2. Press the LAYER/SPLIT button. (The button blinks.)
3. The QUICK LAYER dialog box or QUICK SPLIT
dialog box appear. If the QUICK LAYER dialog box
appears, press the PAGE+(►SPLIT ) button to switch
to the QUICK SPLIT dialog box.
4. Select the other program (bass) that will be split with
the program you selected in step 1; then specify its
volume and pitch.
• Program:
Select the other program. If you used the CATEGORY
dial and the VALUE dial, press the MENU button to
close the list.
(Default setting: category BASS, index number 000)
• Split Point:
Specify the point at which the two programs will be
divided. When you play the keyboard, you’ll hear the
bass in the lower region and the piano in the upper region
(including C4). (Default setting C4)
Note: You can use the keyboard to specify the split point.
Select this parameter, and press the ENTER button so that
the ▲▼ symbols are shown beside the value. Press a key
on the keyboard to enter the note number. Press the
ENTER button once again to confirm the setting.
• Lower/Upper:
If you select this parameter and press the ENTER button,
the two sounds will be exchanged. (Default setting:
Lower)
• Volume:
• Octave:
•Use ARP:
Please see step 4 of the “Quick Layer” section on
page 29.
Note: You can’t change the settings of the first program.
Note: The next time you open this dialog box, the last-
specified settings will be selected as the default.
5. When you’ve finished adjusting settings, press the
MENU (WRITE) button to open the dialog box,
adjust the appropriate settings, and save them.
Please see steps 6 and 7 of “Quick Layer” on page 29.
