Playing Rhythm Patterns in a

Specific Region of the

Keyboard

In Performance mode, you can create a split keyboard setup that divides the keyboard into a region for normal keyboard playing, and a separate region for playing rhythm patterns. For example, you could hold a rhythm pattern while you play a melody. In addition, you could specify a region for arpeggio performance, and use this to produce an accompaniment while you play the melody—an easy way to produce ensemble performances.

1.Access the PERFORMANCE PLAY screen (p. 84).

2.As described in the procedure for “Combining and Playing Sounds Together (Layer)” (p. 87), turn on the Internal Switch for the zone that is connected to the part whose sound you want to play.

3.Make sure the PERFORMANCE EDIT screen is displayed, and press [1 (▲)] or [2 (▼)] to select the “Rhythm Ptn” tab.

A screen like the one shown below appears.

5.Turn the VALUE dial or press [INC]/[DEC] to specify the zone that is connected to the part that is to play the rhythm pattern.
