GETTING STARTED
1. BASIC OPERATIONS
(1) Turn on the power.
You will find the POWER SWITCH at the right end of the front panel. Press this button to turn on the power. Pressing it again will turn off the power.
(2) Adjust the volume.
Play a note on the keyboard and adjust the volume (Moving the slider to the right raises the volume while moving to the left lowers it.)
(3) Select a 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 SOUND SELECT buttons are assigned with three preset sounds to select. To select the other sounds, press the button repeatedly. When a SOUND SELECT button is pressed, the variation number is briefly shown in the display. Pressing the same SOUND SELECT button again will select the next variation sound assigned to the SOUND SELECT button.
You can also select any preset sounds by using the VALUE buttons while the variation number is shown on the LED display.
(4) Play.
Experiment by playing the different sounds.
(5) Dual
Another feature of the CP piano is the ability to layer two preset sounds together to create a more complex sound. For example, piano layered with strings, e. piano with brass sound, and so on.
To layer two sounds, select the first sound and then, while holding down that SOUND SELECT button, select the second sound by pressing another SOUND SELECT button. The LED indicators for each will be turned on to indicate the two sounds you have chosen. The display briefly shows the combination of the selected sound variation numbers.
You can adjust the volume balance between the two sounds. Use the Balance slider to adjust the balance. Move the slider to the right to increase the volume of the rightmost preset sound and decrease the volume of the leftmost preset sound. The balance changes in the opposite way when the slider is moved to the left.
