Play & Adjust Volume
Press the [ORCH. l] or [ORCH. 2] VOICE PART button, depending on
which voice you want to select. The corresponding VOICE PART indicator
will light and the ">" cursor on the LCD panel will move to the correspond-
ing voice position.
Use the VOICE SELECT buttons to enter the number of the desired
voice. Press a button in the upper row (BANK) to select the "BANK" or
"tens" digit, and then a button in the lower row (NUMBER) to select the
"ones" digit. For example, to select voice number 73 (HARP), press the
BANK [7] button and then the NUMBER [3] button.
If a BANK button is pressed but then no NUMBER button is pressed for more
than about 3 seconds, the BANK entry will automatically be cancelled.
The number of the ORCH. 1 or ORCH. 2 voice can also be decreased
(decremented) or increased (incremented) by using the [-] and [+] buttons
immediately below the voice names on the LCD panel. Press either button
briefly to decrement or increment the voice number by one, or hold the
button for continuous decrementing or incrementing.
You can now play the selected voice or voices with the selected orches-
tration. Use the [MASTER] volume control to adjust the overall volume
level, and the [ORCH. l] and [ORCH. 2] VOLUME controls to set the de-
sired balance between the ORCH. 1 and ORCH. 2 voices when either the
dual or split orchestration mode is used.
The tone of some voices may change slightly at one or more points on the
keyboard. Some voices may also shift octaves on some of the lowest and high-
est keys of the keyboard. This is due to the way in which the voice waveforms
were initially sampled and is not a malfunction.
Voice numbers 90 through 97 are actually combinations of two voices, so the
total number of simultaneous notes that can be played when these voices are
selected is less than when any of the other voices are selected.
