Using Split and Layer Modes Together

When Split and Layer Modes are both enabled, Layer Mode will take priority, so the Data Control knob will be automatically assigned to control the volume level for the Layer Voice. If Layer Mode and Split Mode are both active, the Layer Voice will be added only to the Main Voice, not to the Split Voice. In other words, playing to the right of the Split Point will sound the Main and Layer Voices. Playing to the left of the Split Point will sound only the Split Voice.

For example, the image on the left shows a setup with Grand Piano as the Main Voice, Strings as the Layer Voice and Upright Bass as the Split Voice.

Note that the following instructions regarding using Layer Mode and Split Mode together are actually the same as if you were using either of the two modes separately, with the exception of the method for changing the Split Voice volume (which is different when using the two modes together).
