PORTABLE GRAND

This convenient function lets you automatically exit from any other mode or function and instantly call up the Grand Piano voice.

Press the piano-shaped PORTABLE GRAND button.

Doing this automatically cancels any other mode or function, and resets the entire instrument for playing the special “Stereo Sampled Piano” Grand Piano voice (voice 001). It automatically selects the Song mode, calling up song #72, “Für Elise” — which can be played instantly by pressing the START/STOP (>/■) button. It also sets the Multi Pads to special piano phrases, and calls up style #81 (“2beat”).
