Playing Different Sounds In The Right And Left Hands (Split) - Roland SH-201 Owner's Manual

Playing different sounds in the right and left hands (SPLIT)

The SPLIT setting will divide the keyboard into two halves so that you can play the UPPER tone in the right side
and the LOWER tone in the left side.
For example you could use this capability to play soft-sounding chords in the left hand while you play a sharp
solo sound in the right hand, or use the left hand to play a synth bass while you play brass accents in the right
hand.

To select Split, press the DUAL/SPLIT button so the indicator is blinking.
On the keyboard, keys to the right of the triangle symbol (split point) will sound the UPPER tone, and keys to
the left of the triangle symbol will sound the LOWER tone.
* If you want to change the split point, refer to Setting the SPLIT POINT (p. 71).
* When you use the OCT UP/DOWN buttons (p. 18) to shift the pitch range of the keyboard (the indicator for the OCT UP
button or DOWN button will be lit), the split point will also move up or down in one-octave units in conjunction with the
keyboard pitch.
If you press the UPPER button or LOWER button while Split is selected, the indicator of the button you pressed
begins blinking, while the indicator of the other button lights.
When you operate the panel buttons or knobs, the tone whose indicator is blinking is affected.
