In the split send mode notes played on the left-hand section of the keyboard (to the left of and including the split
point key — see "Changing the Split Point" on page 10) are transmitted on MIDI channel 2, while the upper keyboard
section transmits on the MIDI channel set using the Send Channel Select function described earlier. In this mode the
left- and right-hand sections of the keyboard can be used to play separate external keyboards or tone generators set to
receive on the appropriate channels. The Split Send Mode is automatically turned off when the power is initially turned
on.
