The Grand Piano Preset

THE GRAND PIANO PRESET

The Grand Piano Preset is an exception to the rule because, unlike the Presets of the PRO- GRAMMABLE PRESETS section, this preset recalls the Grand Piano sound with fixed param- eter values (volume, pan setting, reverb effect, etc.) which, if modified, cannot be memorized to the Grand Piano Preset. If you attempt to store any modifications that you apply to the GRAND PIANO Preset, the instrument “invites” you to save to the Programmable Presets.

What happens when you press the GRAND PI- ANO button depends on the current mode se- lected.

Select Grand Piano in Preset mode

If you are currently playing in Preset mode and you select the GRAND PIANO preset, the cur- rent Preset is cancelled and substituted by GRAND PIANO. The GRAND PIANO PRESET is displayed for a short period then the display switches to the standard default situation. In addition, the Upper 2 keyboard section is can- celled and the Lower keyboard section is disa- bled. Upper 1 activates across the Full keyboard.

Select Grand Piano in Style mode

If you are currently in Style mode and the Style is not playing, selecting GRAND PIANO recalls Variation 2 of the Style 8 Beat Standard from the 8 BEAT Style Group (unless already selected). The keyboard sounds are substituted by GRAND PIANO, the Upper 2 section is cancelled and the Lower section is disabled. Upper 1 activates across the Full keyboard.

If the Style is playing, the current Style remains unchanged while the keyboard sounds are sub- stituted by the GRAND PIANO preset as above.

Select Grand Piano in Song/Style or Song modes

If you are currently playing with Songs or Song/ Styles and you select the GRAND PIANO pre- set, the current mode is cancelled and the instru- ment sets to Real Time mode with GRAND PI- ANO selected to play across the full keyboard.

You can, therefore, select GRAND PIANO when- ever you want to escape the current mode to play a single sound.
