setting, and can be recalled by pressing the TEMPO [ ] and [ ] buttons si-
multaneously).
A setting of "15" sets the volume of the right voice to maximum and the left
voice to minimum (no sound).

foot switch connected to the rear-panel FOOT SWITCH jack) while holding
the [SPLIT] button.
Both Voices: Press both the DAMPER and FOOT SWITCH pedals while
holding the [SPLIT] button.

hand voices.
• When the ABC Single Finger mode (page 20) and the split mode are used simul-
taneously, the left-hand voice will be accompanied by the appropriate ABC chord
voices.
