•Turning on layering switches the currently selected part from Part 1 to Part 2, and displays the layered tone. At that time,

you can use the [ ] and [ ] CURSOR buttons to switch between parts. Turning off layering returns to Part 1.

•The main tone sounds over Channel 1, while the layered tone sounds over Channel 2. You can also use the Mixer to change the tone and volume settings for these channels.

•Note that layering is not possible during record standby or recording in the Song Memory Mode, or while you are using the SMF Player Mode.

Using Split

With split you can assign two different tones (a main tone and a split tone) to either end of the keyboard, which lets you play one tone with your left hand and another tone with your right hand. For example, you could select GM STRINGS 1 as the main (high range) tone and GM PIZZICATO as the split (low range) tone, putting an entire string ensemble at your fingertips.

Split also lets you specify the split point, which is the location on the keyboard where the changeover between the two tones occurs.

•Leave the MODE button in the NORMAL or FULL RANGE CHORD position.
