SPLITS

Split Mode allows the keyboard to be divided
into two sections so that different voices may be
played with the left and right hands. The volume
may be independently adjusted for each voice, the
Split Point (the highest note played with the left
hand) may be adjusted and the Split Voice may be
changed as desired.
To Enter Split Mode
Press the [SPLIT] button. The Split (left hand) voice
will be the Acoustic Bass and the last Split Point
used. The lower split point will be shown with the
key lights turning green.
To Change the Split Mode Settings
The quickest way to change split settings is to press
and hold the Split button. Hold the Split button and
press a key to make a new split point. Hold the
Split button and turn the data wheel to select a new
lower split sound.
Alternately, press the FUNCTION button. On the
Trans/Split page you can change parameters for the
Split mode by selecting the setting you want with
the page buttons to adjust and turning the Value dial
to change the parameters.

is enabled. The key label and MIDI note number are
