PLAYING VOICES - THE VOICE MODE PPLLAAYYIINNGG TTWWOO VVOOIICCEESS -- SSPPLLIITT VVOOIICCEE In the Split Voice mode, you can assign two different Voices to opposite parts of the PERFORMANCE section of the keyboard, and play one Voice with your left hand while your right plays another. For example, you could play bass with the left hand and play piano with the right. The right-hand (or upper) Voice is selected in the Main Voice mode (page 25), and the left-hand (or lower) Voice is selected in the Split Voice mode, as described below. Where the Split voice is actually played on the keyboard depends on the Part Control and Pattern Control on/off settings. When both of these are off, the entire keyboard can be used for the Main and Split voices. (For details, see page 13.) Split point Split voice Main voice 1 Turn the Split voice on in the Function parameters (#28). To do this, press the FUNCTION button, then use the numeric keypad to select parameter number 28. After "FUNCTION" stops flashing, use the +/buttons to change the setting. (For details, see page 18.) 2 Make other settings for the Split voice (if desired) in the Function mode. 3 Exit the Function mode. Once you've made all desired settings, press one of the other mode buttons (SONG, STYLE, or VOICE). • For the Split voice to be heard properly, make sure to: * Turn the following functions off: Part Control (page 59) and Pattern Control (page 45). * Set the volume to an appropriate level (#21, Split Volume). * Set the octave to a musically appropriate setting (#22 Split Octave). For example, a bass voice might best be played with a "-1" setting, while a strings voice might sound best at "1." * Set the desired Split Point (#29). For most purposes, however, the default Split Point of "071" (Main voice starts at middle C) is suitable. (See the "Parameters" list below for details.) These settings are not saved when you turn off the power. If you wish to save them, save them to a User bank in the Performance Setup feature (page 56). 31
