Dual Mode

The DUAL mode makes it possible to play two
voices simultaneously across the entire range of
the keyboard. This makes it easy to create excep-
tionally rich, thick tonal textures.

A setting of "1" sets the volume of the lowest-numbered voice to maximum and
the highest-numbered voice to minimum (no sound).

A setting of "15" sets the volume of the highest-numbered voice to maximum
and the lowest-numbered voice to minimum (no sound).

through the values slowly, or press firmly to scroll rapidly.
• The dual mode cannot be used when the DRUMS voice is selected. Also, the
dual and split modes cannot be used at the same time.
