The tones for UPPER and LOWER are layered and played.

When you press [DUAL], the [LOWER SELECT] indicator automatically light up, and the LOWER tone number appears in the display. You can display the UPPER TONE number by pressing [LOWER SELECT] so its indicator goes out.

Press [DUAL] once more, and the indicator light goes out.

The tone for UPPER played.

Pressing Two TONE SELECT buttons Simultaneously

You can layer two tones by pressing two TONE SELECT buttons simultaneously.

For example, if you want to layer a piano sound with strings, together press both [PIANO] and [STRINGS].

[DUAL] starts to flash and when you begin playing the keyboard, the piano and strings sounds are layered together.

When this is done, the tone for the button that is pressed down first (indicator lit in red) is assigned to UPPER, and the other tone (indicator lit in orange) is assigned to

LOWER.

Once you have selected two TONE SELECT buttons, pressing either TONE SELECT button then selects that tone as the [UPPER] tone, and the LOWER tone stops playing.

“Adjust the Volume Level for Individual Zones (ZONE LEVEL sliders)” (p. 24)

* You cannot layer two tones when [SPLIT] is set to ON.
