Selecting & Playing the Voices

Dual Mode

In the dual mode both the [R1] and [R2] part

voices are selected so they can be played simultane-

ously across the entire keyboard. To select the dual

mode, make sure that both the [L1] and [L2] indica-

tors are out, then press both the [R1] and [R2] but-

tons simultaneously (or hold one while pressing the

other).

You can switch back to either of the single modes

from the dual mode simply by pressing the [R1] or

[R2] button, as required.

EDIT

The R1 & R2 voices are played

across the entire keyboard.

Split Modes

The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 allow four different

split modes, with one voice played on the left-hand

section of the keyboard ([L1] or [L2]) and a different

voice on the right-hand section of the keyboard ([R1]

or [R2]). Selecting a split mode is simply a matter of

pressing the buttons corresponding to the desired

left- and right-hand parts.

The split point (i.e. the key at which the voices

change over) can be set at any desired key by using

the SPLIT POINT CHANGE function described on

page 20.
