The VOLUME section

Below the Display, you’ll find a set of buttons which determine the volume and muting status of each of the tracks in an arrangement. (Note that in Song Play mode, these buttons become Track/MIDI channel buttons 1-16, and that in Program mode, these buttons function as Performance Edit buttons)

When you are working with an arrangement, pressing any of these buttons will cause the Display to indicate the selected Program. If you look in the Display, you’ll also see the volume level indicators for each track left-to-right, in the lower part of the Display.

Let’s get an idea of how this works:

1.Press the ARR.PLAY button.

2.Press ARRANGEMENT BANK [A], then press ARRANGEMENT NUMBERS [56] “Hip Hop”.

3.Play a chord in the lower range of the keyboard then press START/STOP to start the arrangement.

4.In the VOLUME section, press the DRUMS button. The Display will indicate the drum program that is being used in this arrangement.

5.Press and hold the lower button, below the DRUMS button. Notice that the volume of the drum program is decreasing.

6.Press and hold the DRUMS button to increase the volume. Watch the Display and release the button when the Display indicates a volume level of “126”.

Muting the tracks:

1.Let Arrangement 56 continue to play - change to another Variation if you are getting bored...or change arrangements to something else if you like...

2.Press both the upper and lower DRUMS buttons to MUTE the drum track. Press them both again to UN-MUTE the track.

The ACC1-3 MUTE button:

To the right of the VOLUME section, there is a button labeled ACC1-3 MUTE. When playing an arrangement, you can press this button to mute the accompaniment tracks. In Backing Sequence mode, this button selects extra tracks.
