Playing the Solo Voice on the Lower Keyboard (Solo [To Lower] Button)

Normally, the solo voice will sound on the upper keyboard.

By using the Solo [To Lower] button, you can play the solo voice in the right- hand side of the lower keyboard that includes the B4 key. The state in which the keyboard is divided in this way is called “split,” and the location at which the keyboard is divided to play the solo voice in the lower keyboard is called the “Solo Split Point.”
