Playing Different Tones with the Left

and Right Hands (Split)

Dividing the keyboard into right-hand and left-hand areas, then playing different

sounds in each section is called “split performance.” The boundary key is called the

“split point.”

The split point key is included in the left-hand keyboard area. Each time power to

the keyboard is turned on, the split point is reset to “F#3.”
