About zones and zone parts
Keyboard, pedal, button, and other operations not only affect the Digital Piano's tones, they are also sent as
MIDI data and affect any external device (electronic musical instrument or computer) connected to the Digital
Piano. Because of this, parameter setting areas called "zones" are used to configure common settings for
internal and external use. The sound source parts inside the Digital Piano are called "zone parts". For example,
if you select a tone for the Digital Piano's Zone 2, that tone is used for the internal sound source's Zone 2 and
for the part that corresponds to MIDI Channel 2 of the external device.
• You can change the relationships between zones and MIDI data send channels, if you want (page E-31).

You can perform using four tones at the same time. You also can use "stage setups" to register tone, phrase
sequencer, and other Digital Piano setups for quick and simple recall while you are performing.
