1.8PLAYING WITH MORE SOUNDS

You have already heard the CN’s main piano sound. The CN4 has a total of 305 sounds + 9 drum sets, not only different types of piano sounds but different instruments as well.

The different instrument sounds built into CN piano are called “preset sounds”.

All of the preset sounds have been created through advanced digital sampling technology achieving as natural and realistic sound as possible. Let’s try some of the preset sounds.

SELECTING ANOTHER PRESET SOUND

Press the SOUND SELECT button under the name of the

instrument you would like to listen to. When the button is pressed, the LED indicator will be turned on to indicate that this sound is selected.

The name of the selected preset sound is also shown in the LCD Display.

	The SOUND SELECT buttons are assigned with four preset sounds to
	select. To select the other sounds, press the button repeatedly.
	You can also select any preset sounds by using the VALUE buttons.
◆ NOTE	The OTHERS button is assigned with 278 sounds (including 9 drum sets).
	While holding down one of the VALUE buttons, pressing the other VALUE
	button will jump to the next sound category within the OTHERS button.
