Playing the Piano Parts on the Tone Generator

Normally, piano parts are played back by the piano. You can, however, change this so that the piano parts are also played by the internal XG tone generator or a MIDI instrument connected to the MIDI OUT connector.

You can use this to double up the Disklavier piano parts with a different voice, say strings or vibes. This technique is sometimes referred to as voice layering or unison.
