NOTE

Always enter two digits for the tone number. If you enter only one digit, the display will automatically return to the previous tone number setting after a few seconds.

If you change the tone setting while a keyboard key is depressed, the tone does not change until you release the key and press a keyboard key again.

With certain tones (such as percussion sounds and sound effects), there may be very little or no change at all in the pitch, no matter which keyboard key you press.

If you input the wrong first digit for a tone number, you can return to the previous setting by pressing the TONE button.

Keyboard split tones

Some of the preset tones split the keyboard and assign two or more sounds. With such a preset tone, the sound produced depends on what position of the keyboard you play. For example, BASS/PIANO (tone 90) puts BASS on the left and PIANO on the right of the keyboard.

PERCUSSION (No.99)

PERCUSSION (Tone 99) assigns 35 percussion sounds to the keyboard as shown below. The sounds assigned to each key are indicated above the keyboard.
