ADVANCED TONE

Using an Advanced Tone

100 of the preset tones are “Advanced Tones,” which are variations of standard tones created by programming in effects (DSP) and other settings. For example, PIANO is modified into STEREO PIANO, ORGAN becomes ROTARY SPEAKER ORGAN, and so on.

To select an Advanced Tone

1. Press the ADVANCED TONE button.

•This causes “AD” to appear on the display, and caus- es the currently selected tone to change to its Ad- vanced Tone version.

Lit

•“AD TONE” stands for “ADVANCED TONE.”

2.Press the TONE button.

•This causes “AD” to disappear from the display, and returns to the tone to its standard preset.

❚NOTE

•Preset tone numbers 000 to 099 have Advanced Tone versions.

•Anytime “AD” is on the display indicating that an Advanced Tone is selected, you can use [+] and [–] to scroll the tone number on the display.

•If any tone number outside the range of 000 to 099 is selected when you press the ADVANCED TONE button, the tone auto- matically changes to the Advanced Tone version of tone number 00.

•Only one of the channels (1 to 16) can have an Advanced Tone assigned to it at one time. Assigning an Advanced Tone to an- other channel causes the currently assigned channel to change automatically to its standard (non-Advanced) version.

Polyphony

The term polyphony refers to the maximum number of notes you can play at the same time. The keyboard has 32-note po- lyphony, which includes the notes you play as well as the rhythms and auto-accompaniment patterns that are played by the keyboard. This means that when a rhythm or auto- accompaniment pattern is being played by the keyboard, the number of notes (polyphony) available for keyboard play is reduced. Also note that some of the tones offer only 16-note polyphony.

Digital Sampling

A number of the tones that are available with this keyboard have been recorded and processed using a technique called digital sampling. To ensure a high level of tonal quality, samples are taken in the low, mid, and high ranges and then combined to provide you with sounds that are amazingly close to the originals. You may notice very slight differences in volume or sound quality for some tones when you play them at different positions on the keyboard. This is an unavoidable result of multiple sampling, and it is not a sign of malfunction.
