Use the VOLUME controller to adjust the
volume level.
Press one of the 14 TONE buttons to select
the tone you want.
• The names of the main tones are marked above the
TONE buttons.
• This will cause the lamp of the selected tone's button
to light.
Example: GRAND PIANO 3
NOTE
• The DSP effect (pages E-26 and E-28) will be applied if
you select a tone with DSP.
• Note that the digital piano's DSP resources are limited.
Because of this, selecting a tone with DSP can cause notes
that are currently being played to cut off (if they are
being played using a tone with DSP), or it can remove the
DSP effect from an operation (layer, split, demo song)
that was previously assigned a tone with DSP.
