Keyboard split tones

Some of the preset tones split the keyboard and assign two or more sounds. With such a preset tone, the sound produced depends on what position of the keyboard you play. For example, BASS/PIANO (tone 90) puts BASS on the left and PIANO on the right of the keyboard.

Digital Sampling

A number of the tones that are available with this keyboard have been recorded and processed using a technique called digital sampling. To ensure a high level of tonal quality, samples are taken in the low, mid, and high ranges and then combined to provide you with sounds that are amazingly close to the originals. You may notice very slight differences in volume or sound quality for some tones when you play them at different positions on the keyboard. This is an unavoidable result of multiple sampling, and it is not a sign of malfunction.
