Step2

Play the keyboard.

The selected sound will be heard as the keys are pressed.

Use the MASTER VOLUME slider to adjust the volume if necessary.

The CN41 piano is capable of playing up to 96 notes simultaneously (96-note polyphony). However, when playing in dual mode, or when playing a stereo piano sound, the polyphony will be reduced by half because the piano has to produce two sounds for each note.
