Using Split And Layer - Yamaha MONTAGE M6 Operation Manual

Using Split and Layer

Split allows you to divide the keyboard into sections to play each section with a different sound,
while Layer allows you to combine multiple sounds on top of each other on a Split section or
across the entire keyboard.
To set up splits and layers on the MONTAGE M, use the Split Points to make the groups of
keyboard sections and assign a Part to each group.
To open the Split setting screen, press the [SPLIT] button.
The Split Job screen for the Performance appears, allowing you to change the Split settings.
By tapping the items on the screen to specify the number and position for the Split Point, you
can set the key range and select a sound for each Part.
By tapping the group button (A, B, C, D) on the screen while holding down the [SHIFT] button,
you can set the Part for more than one group.
When the setup is finished, press the [EXIT] button on the top panel or tap Done on the screen.
Tapping on the upper left cancels the setup and closes the screen.
To change the note range, simultaneously hold down the [SHIFT] button and press the [SPLIT]
button.
This calls up the Part—Note view of the Performance screen, allowing you to change the note
range of each Part.
Set the value by using the built-in keyboard or Data dial.
