Performing

The HP203 features over 300 different internal sounds, allowing you to enjoy performing
with sounds suitable for many different types of music.
These onboard sounds are called “Tones.” The Tones are divided into six different
groups, each of which is assigned to a different Tone button.
The Tone “Grand Piano 1” is selected when the instrument’s power is turned on.
