Creating Key Splits and Layers

Splits and Layers

Let’screateaCombinationthatcombinesbothsplits
andlayers,likethediagrambelow:
1. AccesstheCombiP0:Play–ProgramT01–08page.
2. SelectapianosoundforTimbre1,abrasssound
forTimbre2,andastringssoundforTimbre3.
3. AccesstheP3:TimbreParameters–MIDIT01–08

4. ForTimbres1–3,setStatustoINTandMIDI
ChanneltoGch(theGlobalChannel).
5. AccesstheP4:Zone/Delay–KeyZT01–08page.
6. SetTimbre1’sTopKeytoG9,anditsBottomKey
toC4.
