PLAYING VOICES — THE VOICE MODE

PLAYING TWO VOICES — DUAL VOICE

The Dual Voice mode lets you create richly textured sounds by “layering” two different voices together — one voice being the Main voice selected in the normal way (page 27), and the other a Dual voice selected as described below.

1 Turn on the Dual Voice mode.

Press the DUAL button.

REVERB DUAL

MEASURE 001 116TEMPO

HARMONY

When you play the keyboard, both the currently selected Main and Dual voices will be heard.

To turn the Dual mode off, press the DUAL button again.

2 Select the desired Dual voice and make other set- tings for the voice (if desired) in the Function mode.

To do this, first call up the Function mode by pressing the FUNCTION button.

3 Select the desired Function parameter number.

While the “FUNCTION” indication is flashing, use the numeric keypad to select the desired Dual Voice Function parameter number (11 - 18). Actual selection of the Dual voice is made from parameter #17. (See the “Param- eters” list below for details.)

FUNCTION

Function parameter numbers can be selected in the same way as with the voices (see page 28) — with the numeric keypad, +/- keys, or the FUNC- TION button.

The Dual Voice mode can also be turned on and off with a connected footswitch. (See page 91.)

•Since the “FUNCTION” indication flashes for only a couple of seconds, make sure to select the parameter quickly after step 2 above.

•For the Dual voice to be heard properly, make sure to:

* Select a different voice (#17, Dual Voice).

* Set the volume to an appropriate level (#11, Dual Volume).
