Splitting
Chapter 6
Split mode enables you to play two different voices on the keyboard - one with the left hand
another with the right hand. For example, you can play a bass part using the Bass voice with
the left hand and a melody voice with the right hand.
First, select a main (Primary, right hand side) sound and press the [Split] button. A message
will appear on the LCD display.
The [Split] button will light and you can select the secondary, left hand sound. To return to
Primary Sound selection, press the [Split] button again.
1) Setting the Split Volume
This parameter determines the relative volumes of the Secondary and Primary Sounds - it
can be set to any number between -127 and 127. By default, the Split Volume is set to 0,
which results in both sounds having the same volume. When set to a positive number, the
volume for the Secondary Sound is increased while the volume for the Primary Sound is
decreased - doing the opposite has the opposite effect on the relative volumes of the sounds.
In Split mode, press the Transpose [-] or [+] button to reach the Split Vol display. Then
press the [Previous] or [Next] buttons to adjust the relative volume.
Default volume : 0
Volume range : -127 ~ 0 ~ +127
2) Specify the Split Point
Press the Transpose [-] or [+] button to reach the Split Point display. Then press the
[Previous] or [Next] buttons to move the Split Point left or right.
In addition to using the value buttons, you can directly select the Split Point by striking the
desired split point key on the keyboard.
3) Split Transposition
This parameter determines the transposition of the Secondary Voice relative to that of the
Primary Voice - it can be set to -24, -12, 0, 12 and 24. By default, Split Transposition is set
to 0. Select and adjust Split Transposition as above.
