Selecting Parts - Yamaha CP4 Stage Owner's Manual

Tip
Setting your favorite Voices
The Voice selected first of all whenever you press a
Voice Category button is referred to as a "favorite
Voice". By default, the first Voice from each category is
set as its favorite Voice; however, you can set your
own favorite Voices using the following procedure:
Select the Voice you wish to set using Steps 1 and 2
from Changing Voices above; hold down [SHIFT] and
press the Voice Category button for the selected
category.
The message "Favorite voice registered" will be
displayed on-screen to confirm your new setting.
NOTE
If the category of the pressed button matches the Voice
category of the Part currently selected for editing, the set
favorite Voice will not be recalled.
Turning on and off Parts
Using the [SPLIT] and [LAYER] buttons, you can turn on
and off the corresponding Parts — that is, set whether or
not they will produce a sound when you play the
keyboard. When a Part is turned on, its button will be lit
and vice-versa. Simply press a button to toggle the
corresponding Part on and off. It should be noted that the
MAIN Part is always on, and therefore, its button is always
lit. In addition, the on/off condition of individual Parts can
be stored for each Performance.
Button not lit:
Part is off
NOTE
On the CP40 STAGE, pressing the [LAYER] button turns off
the SPLIT Part; similarly, pressing the [SPLIT] button turns off
the LAYER Part.
[MAIN] button always lit:
Part is always on

Selecting Parts

In order to change a Part's Voice or edit any of its
parameters, you will first need to select that Part. To do
so, hold down the [PART SELECT] button and press the
corresponding Part button. If currently on the
Performance screen, you can select a Part simply by
turning it on.
The following shows how, for example, to select the
LAYER part:
NOTE
On the CP40 STAGE, pressing either the [LAYER] or
[SPLIT] button essentially selects the same Part. The
SPLIT/LAYER Part can be used as either a LAYER or
SPLIT Part.
The on-screen cursor will move to the LAYER Part to
confirm that it is currently selected.
