Using Built-in Tones

Splitting the Keyboard between Two Tones

You can split the keyboard so the left side (lower range) plays one tone and the right side (upper range) plays a different tone.

Example: To split the keyboard between the GM SLAP BASS 1 tone on the left (lower range) and the GRAND PIANO tone on the right (upper range).

3. To unsplit the keyboard and return it to a single tone, press the  (SPLIT) button.

The SPLIT lamp will go out, indicating that the keyboard is no longer split.

NOTE

If the keyboard is set up with layered tones (page E-10) when you perform the above split operation, the layered tones will play on the right (upper range) side of the keyboard.

Moving the Keyboard Split Point

You can use the procedure below to specify the location on the keyboard where it splits between the left side and the right side. That location is called the “split point”.
