The Split Mode
The SPLIT mode lets you play different voices with the left and right hands.
You could, for example, play bass with the left hand while playing piano with
the right. The right-hand voice is the keyboard voice you select in the normal
way (page 12), and the left hand voice is selected via the SPLIT VOICE func-
tion, described below. The “split point” is initially set at B2 (note number 59),
but it can be set at any key on the keyboard.
The SPLIT mode is engaged by pressing the
[MODE]
button so that the
arrow in the display appears next to “SPLIT” in the mode list to the right of the

case the dual voice plays simul-
taneously with the right-hand
voice only.
