What is Combination?
A Combination is a sound that consists of
up to eight Programs. Combinations allow
you to:
• Produce a thick and complex sound by
layering multiple Programs (Layer)
• Produce the sound of different Programs
depending on the range of the keyboard
(Split)
• Play different Programs by applying a
different key touch to the keyboard
(Velocity Switch).
Try different key ranges and key
velocities.
