Lower and Upper
Use the [UPPER] button and [LOWER] button to switch between the Upper part and

When the [UPPER] button is lit, performance data from the keyboard (notes and
aftertouch), bender lever (pitch and modulation), and foot pedal, as well as program
change messages, will be transmitted on the current channel specified for the Upper
part.
Octave Shift settings can be made independently for each part, and will be
remembered while you're performing.
* If MIDI messages are assigned to aftertouch or the bender lever, they will be transmitted on the
assigned MIDI channel, not on the current channel.
