3. The Performance Mode
The PAGE [
] and [
] keys can usually be used to select the
various parameter and function screens in any edit mode. There
is another way, however, that can be more direct is some cases.
To call the
“
LAYER Voice Number screen
”
, for example, press
the [MENU] key, use either the data entry dial or the [-1] and
[+1] keys to select
“
1:Voice Number
”
, and then press [ENTER/
YES].
5.
Set the Volume of Each Layer
Press the PAGE [
] key to move to the “LAYER Volume” screen.
You can now use the [CS2] slider to adjust the volume of the layer-A
voice, the [CS4] slider to adjust the volume of the layer-B voice, and the [CS6]
slider to adjust the volume of the layer-C voice. The volume range is from “0”
to “127”, with “127” being maximum volume. The bars to the right of the
volume parameters indicate volume level — the longer the bar the higher the
volume.
For now, just use [CS6] to lower the volume of the layer-C strings voice to
“98”. Notice that since layer D is turned “off”, no parameter appears for the
layer-D voice.
In addition to using the control sliders, these and most other
parameters can be adjusted by first pressing the function key
immediately below the parameter in order to select that param-
eter (the underline cursor will appear below the selected
parameter), and then using either the data entry dial for large
changes or the [-1] and [+1] keys for small stepwise changes.
6.
Set the Pan Position of Each Layer
Press the PAGE [
] key to move to the “LAYER Pan” screen.
Use the [CS4] slider to set the layer-B pan parameter to “-15 and [CS6] to
set the layer-C pan parameter to “+15”. This pans the piano voice slightly to
the left and the strings voice slightly to the right for a broader, more spacious
sound (the bass voice is left in the center — “+0”). Note the position of the
marker in the graphic pan display on the upper display line as you set these
parameters.
