Layer mode settings

In layer mode you can effect additional settings for advanced
playing with two sounds at the same time.
All sounds are numbered internally from 1 through 14. This order of
sounds determines which sound is addressed internally as voice #1,
voice #2, etc., which in turn is important for making changes to the
sounds selected.
1 2 3
8 9 10 11
In our example the two sounds GRAND 1 and STRINGS are being
used in layer mode. Internally, GRAND 1 is #1, STRINGS is #11. The
sound with the lower number is addressed internally as voice #1
(here: GRAND 1), the sound with the higher number as voice #2
(here: STRINGS).
◊
Please note the order of voices used in the sound
combination selected, in order to understand which
settings apply to which voice in the examples below.
◊
A layer combination consisting of two sounds must be set
up before you can adjust the following functions
(see chapter 4.1).

5.3.3 Transposition
Use this function to transpose the selected sounds up or down
by one octave. Depending on which sounds are used in a
combination, the tranpose function can help make the sounds
more homogeneous.
Example:
In a combination of GRAND 1 and STRINGS, the STRINGS sound
too low. In this case, it helps to transpose the STRINGS up by one
octave.
