Performing with a Variety of Sounds

The FP-5 features over 300 different internal sounds, allowing you to enjoy
performing with sounds suitable for many different types of music.
These onboard sounds are called "Tones." The Tones are divided into seven
different groups, each of which is assigned to a different Tone button.
The Tone "Grand Piano 1" is selected when the instrument's power is
turned on.
