Piano Split Mode

Piano Split mode divides the CUP2A keyboard into an upper and lower region, above or below the F4 key. Each
region then functions as a 44-key instrument: the left region is transposed up two octaves; the right is transposed down
two octaves. This allows the instrument to be played with four hands. The left pedal will function as sustain on the left
zone, the right pedal will function as sustain on the right zone.
Entering Piano Split Mode
Pressing the Favorite 1 + Favorite 2 buttons simultaneously will initiate Piano Split Mode. The display will scroll
"PS Piano Split" and then just "PS." The Favorites buttons will remain lit while in this mode.

Transpose

To enter Transpose Mode press the Transpose button. The Transpose LED will blink, and the Voice LED will turn
off. The display will indicate the current transposition. Pressing the Next+ or Prev- buttons will adjust the transposi-
tion between -24 and 24 in steps of 1 semitone.
Press Prev- /Next+ simultaneously to reset the Transpose value to 0.
To exit Transpose Mode, press Transpose again, or the Voice button, to return to Voice Mode. If the Transpose
value is not 0, the Transpose LED will remain lit, to indicate that the keyboard is currently transposed.

Metronome

When the Metronome button is selected, the metronome will be heard through the piano speakers when playing. It
will be set to its default tempo (120 beats per minute) upon powering on the instrument up but it can range from 20 to
300 BPM. To change the Metronome Volume, see the Settings section of this manual.

Changing the Tempo

To change the metronome tempo, press the Tempo button. Its LED lights and the display shows the current tempo in
beats-per-minute (BPM). Press the Prev- button to decrease the tempo (to a low of 20 BPM) or press the Next+ but-
ton to increase the tempo (up to the maximum of 300 BPM).
While the Tempo button LED remains lit, the display will show the selected tempo. To return to the default setting of
120 BPM, press the Prev- /Next+ button pair. Hitting any other button will exit Tempo mode and the display will show
the current Voice number.

Using Tap Tempo

Pressing the Tempo button repeatedly will allow you to set the tempo manually. Your tapping intervals will be
measured and displayed in beats-per-minute.
