Playing the PSR-4000
If you press the
before it disappears, the easy-setting display for that
part will appear providing access to the split point
parameters as well as the individual octave, pan, and
tune parameters for that part. These same param-
eters can be accessed via the FUNCTION displays
(page 98), but the easy-setting displays offer an
easier, more efficient way to set these parameters
when selecting parts. The easy setting display for a
part that is already on can be accessed by pressing
the
corresponding part button (in this case the part
button indicator will not go out when the button is
released). See the following pages for details on
each of the orchestra part easy setting parameters:
NOTES
• The more parts you play simultaneously, the fewer the
total number of notes that can be played on the keyboard
at the same time.
• When the RIGHT 1 and RIGHT 2 parts are both on and the
same voice is selected for both parts, the sound may be
slightly different from the normal voice.
• When the LEFT part is on, the left voice will automatically
be transposed up one octave.
C
Select a Voice or Voices
To select a RIGHT 1 or RIGHT 2 voice use the RIGHT ORCHESTRA voice selectors, to select a LEAD
voice use the LEAD voice selectors, and to select a LEFT voice use the LEFT ORCHESTRA voice selectors.
When selecting a RIGHT 1 or RIGHT 2 voice it is also necessary to press the [R1] or [R2] PART SELECT
button prior to actually selecting the voice, according to whether you want to select a RIGHT 1 or RIGHT
2 voice (this is not necessary if the [R1] or [R2] indicator for the part you want to select is already lit).
Use the voice group buttons to select the group from which you want to select a voice. The corresponding
voice display will appear.
NOTES
• The display will automatically revert to
the main display after a few seconds if
the [LIST HOLD] button is not en-
gaged (page 11).
• Custom voices which can be selected
via the RIGHT ORCHESTRA, LEFT
ORCHESTRA, and LEAD [CUSTOM]
buttons can be created via the CUS-
TOM VOICE EDIT mode described on
page 78, or loaded from disk.
