Setting The Split Point; Playing Chords Without Style Playback - Yamaha PSR-I455 Owner's Manual

Setting the Split Point

The point on the keyboard that separates the left-hand
range and the right-hand range of the keyboard is
called the "Split Point."
When a Style is selected and ACMP is on, the notes
played to the left of the Split Point are used to specify
the chord for Style playback. When the Split function
is on, the notes played to the left of the Split Point are
used to play the Split Voice.
The initial default Split Point is key number 54 (the
F#2 key), but you can change it to another key.

If you press the [STYLE] button, press the [ACMP
