Using Split - Casio PX-410R User Manual

Digital Piano Settings

Using Split

With split you can assign two different tones (a main tone
and a split tone) to either end of the keyboard, which lets
you play one tone with your left hand and another tone with
your right hand. For example, you could select GM STRINGS
1 as the main (high range) tone and GM PIZZICATO as the
split (low range) tone, putting an entire string ensemble at
your fingertips.
Split also lets you specify the split point, which is the location
on the keyboard where the changeover between the two tones
occurs.
NOTE
• Leave the MODE button in the Normal or FULL RANGE
CHORD position.

Press the SPLIT button again to unsplit the keyboard
and return it to normal.
NOTE
• Turning on split switches the currently selected part to
Part 3, and displays the split tone. At that time, you can
use the [ ] and [ ] CURSOR buttons to switch between
parts. Turning off split returns to Part 1.
• The main tone sounds over Channel 1, while the split
tone sounds over Channel 3. You can also use the Mixer
to change the tone and volume settings for these
channels.
• Note that split is not possible during record standby or
recording in the Song Memory Mode, or while you are
using the SMF Player Mode.
• When the MODE button is set to CASIO CHORD or
FINGERED, the accompaniment keyboard range is in
accordance with the split point you specify with the above
procedure.
