Layering Two Instrument Sounds (Dual Play)

You can hold down one Tone button and press another Tone button to layer two sounds for playing together.

This function is called “Dual Play.”

Example: Combining Piano and Strings

1

1. While pressing the [Piano] button, also press the [Strings]

button.

The indicators for both buttons light.

When you then play the keyboard, the layered sounds of the piano and strings will play.

The [Variation] button indicator now indicates the tone for the right button of the two selected Tone buttons.

When you press the [Variation] button, the indicator color switches, and the tone assigned to the right tone button is changed.

Of the two selected tones, to change the tone assigned to the left tone button, first exit Dual Play, then reselect the tone.

2. To cancel Dual Play, press either Tone button.

When you play the keyboard, only the tone of the button you pressed will be heard.

You can adjust the volume balance between the two selected tones in Dual Play. For details, refer to “Changing the Volume Balance in Dual Play”

(p. 21).

When the power is turned on, the sound of the left Tone button is set to be louder.

You can only select tone number one or two in Dual Play.

If you use Dual play with a Tone button for which tone number 3 or 4 is selected, tone number 1 will be selected for that Tone button.
