Layering Two Voices (Dual Mode) - Yamaha 440 Owner's Manual

Turning transpose on or off
Each time you press the [TRANSPOSE] button, transpose turns on or off. When
the lamp is flashing, the function is on. When it is off or the transposition
amount is 0, the lamp does not flash.

Layering two Voices (Dual mode)

This function lets you layer and play two different Voices at the same time. You can layer Voices of two
different categories or two different Voices in the same category, and create a composite Voice of greater
richness and texture.
1.
Call up the Dual mode.
Press two Voice buttons at the same time. The Voice indicators of both
selected Voices will light when the Dual mode is active.
Try playing the keyboard and listen to the resulting sound.
Voice 1/ Voice 2
According to the Voice numbering
priority shown on the right, the
lower value Voice number will be
designated as Voice 1, and the other
Voice as Voice 2.
The Function mode provides access to a number of other Dual mode
functions, such as volume balance setting or octave setting (page 51).
2.
Exit the Dual mode and return to normal play mode.
To return to the normal single-Voice play mode, press any single Voice
button.
