Playing Different Tones with the Left and Right Hands (Split Play)

Dividing the keyboard into right-hand and left-hand areas, then playing different sounds in each is called “Split play.” The boundary key is called the “split point.”

The split point key is included in the left-hand keyboard area.

1 Press the [SPLIT] button.

The button’s indicator will light.

The keyboard is divided into right-hand and left-hand areas.

The tone you were playing before you pressed the [SPLIT] button will be selected for the right-hand area. A tone that is a suitable match for the right-hand tone will be selected for the left-hand area.

To cancel Split play, press the [SPLIT] button, getting its indicator to go dark.

Changing tone played by the left hand

Press the [VARIATION] button.

Each time you press the [VARIATION] button, the button’s indicator will change color, and the left-hand tone will change.

Some tones assign the tone that had been selected before you pressed the [SPLIT] button to the left hand area of the keyboard.

Changing tone played by the right hand

Press the TONE SELECT button.

The tone of the right-hand area will change. A tone that is a suitable match for the right-hand tone will be selected for the left-hand area.

If you want to change the variation for the right-hand tone, cancel Split play and then re-select the tone.

When using Dual play, press the [SPLIT] button

The right hand will play the tone of the left button of Dual play, and the left hand will play a suitable match for the right-hand tone.

For information about the tones that can be selected for the left hand section, refer to the “Tone List” (p. 34).

The selected left hand tone is remembered for each TONE SELECT button. When you turn off the power, it will return to the original setting.

In Split play, the damper pedal will be applied only to the right-hand area of the keyboard. If you want the damper pedal to be applied to the left-hand area, refer to “Applying the Damper Pedal to the Left-hand Keyboard Area” (p. 28).
