tions:

soon as you play a note or chord in the Lower
zone, Style playback will begin with an introduc-
fon.

button, In that case, there is no need to press [KEY
START/STOP] (both indicators will light).
INTRO ING KEY
START/STOP
* If you press {INTRO/ENDING] while the Pianist
is playing, Style playback will stop after playing
an ending (coda). The Ending always starts on
the next downbeat.
Note: The [INTRO/ENDING] button doesn't work
when. the Pianist mode is switched off (see next page).
Changing the split point
As you know, the preset split point between the
Upper section and the Pianist is set at C3 (C4 on
ep-75). There may be times when that is just at
little too far to the left or right.
The ep-95/ep-85 allows you to change the split
point to any key between C2 and the C4 (C3-C5
on ep-75) that is, one octave up or down with
respect to the preset value. Here is how to
change it:
1. Press and hold down any Style select button until its indi-
cator starts flashing.
2. Press the key on the keyboard is to become the new split
point.
This split point is memorized when you switch
off your ep-95/ep-85/ep-75. Be aware, however,
that the ep-95/ep-83/ep-75 will revert to C3 (C4
on ep-75) when you recall the factory settings.
