Voices
– Playing the keyboard –
The instrument features a wide variety of exceptionally realistic instrumental Voices, including piano, guitar, strings,
brass, wind instruments and more.

Playing Preset Voices

The Voices can be played via three keyboard parts: Main, Layer and Left. These playing
modes allow you to play just one single Voice (Main), play two different Voices in layer
(Main and Layer), or play different Voices in the right- and left-hand areas of the
keyboard (Main/Layer and Left). By combining these three parts, you can create
luscious instrument textures and convenient performance combinations.
Left part
When the Left part is turned off, the entire keyboard is used for the Main and Layer
parts. When the Left part is turned on, the F 2 and lower keys are used for the Left part
while the upper keys (excluding F 2) are used for the Main and Layer parts. The key
which divides the keyboard into the left-hand and right-hand areas is referred to as
"Split Point" and its guide lamp lights when the Left part is turned on. The Voices of the
parts which are turned on can be confirmed on the Home display.
