In this condition, all Voices set to the Upper
Keyboard except for Lead Voice 2 are playable
on the Upper Keyboard. (Only Lead Voice 2 is

Notes on using Solo
• The knee lever can be used to control other
functions, such as switching Sustain. When other
functions are assigned to the knee lever, pressing
knee lever turns these functions on at the same
time.
• When you release the knee lever, Solo is not applied
to the key being pressed, but is applied from the
next pressed key. When you press the knee lever,
Solo remains active for the key being pressed, and
is cancelled from the next pressed key.
• Lead Voices 1 and 2 sound only the highest note if
two or more keys are played. However, in the Solo
mode, Lead Voice 2 sounds for the last key played.
