Voice Mode

Changing Category Default Voices

Pressing a Category button selects the default or "first" voice for that category. You can change the default voice for
that category. Follow these simple steps:
In Voice Mode, select the category and press the Prev- and Next+ buttons to find your desired sound to save as
your default. Press and hold its Category button until the display reads SAVED. Release the button when SAVED
shows on the display. Your new sound is now saved as the first or default voice for that category.

Using Variations

For most voices, pressing the Variation button will enable a pad layer, string layer, or
effect.

Storing a Favorite Voice

You can quickly save any voice or layered sounds as a favorite. Just select a voice, or layer, then press and hold one of
the six Favorites buttons. The voice is now stored in that location.

In addition to the many presets already available in the Andante CGP220, you can
create layered voices and add even more depth and breadth to its rich sounds.
Layering combines two of the Andante CGP220 voices enabling you to play both
voices together.
There are three parameters available in Layer Mode: Voice, Volume, and
Transposition. Changing the value of a parameter determines the characteristics of
the layer.
Depending on the selected parameter some buttons operate differently. The following is a description of the Layer
Mode navigation buttons.

Next, press the Layer button to enter Layer Mode. When the Layer
button is pressed, the current voice becomes the primary layer voice.
The Layer button LED lights and secondary voice of the layer appears
on the screen. (The default is 65, Adagio Strings, or the last secondary
voice selected since the instrument was switched on). The primary voice
is now layered with the secondary voice.
