Selecting and Playing a Tone

Layering Two Tones

Use the following procedure to layer two tones, so they
sound at the same time. The tone you specify first is
called the "main tone", while the tone you specify
second is called the "layered tone".
NOTE
• To use a Various tone or GM tone as the main tone, you
must first assign it to the VARIOUS/GM TONES button
(page E-9).
• You can use a Various tone or GM tone assigned to the
VARIOUS/GM TONES button as either the main tone
or the layered tone. You cannot use Various/GM tones at
the same time for both the main tone and layered tone.
1.
While holding down the TONE button of the
tone that corresponds to the main tone, press
the button that corresponds to the layered
tone.
Example: While holding down the GRAND PIANO 2
button, press the STRINGS button.

NOTE
• If you press the VARIOUS/GM TONES button to assign
its tone as the layered (second) tone, the number of the
currently assigned tone will appear on the display when
you hold down the VARIOUS/GM TONES button.
• While holding down the VARIOUS/GM TONES button,
you can use the /NO and
through tone numbers and change the tone assignment.
2.
To unlayer the keyboard, press any one of
the TONE buttons.
NOTE
• You can adjust the balance between the main tone and
layered tone. See "Other Settings" on page E-24 for more
