Mixer Function
What you can do with the Mixer
This keyboard lets you play multiple different musical instrument parts at the same time during auto- accompaniment play, song memory playback, receipt of data through the MIDI terminal, etc. The Mixer assigns each part to a separate channel (1 through 16) and lets you control the channel on/off, volume, and pan pot parameters of each channel.
In addition to channels 1 through 16, the Mixer also has a DSP channel that you can use to adjust the DSP level, DSP pan, and other DSP parameters.
