Voices – Playing the keyboard –

4Use the [1 ▲▼], [3 ▲▼] – [5 ▲▼] and [I] buttons to apply effects

to the Voices.

NOTE

Portamento is a function that creates a

smooth transition in pitch from the

ﬁrst note played on the keyboard to

the next.

NOTE

“DSP” stands for Digital Signal Pro-

cessor (or Processing). DSP changes

and enhances the audio signal in the

digital realm to produce a wide range

of effects.

NOTE

The effect type can be changed. On

the Voice Selection display, select

[6▲] (VOICE SET) → TAB [E][F]

EFFECT/EQ → [A]/[B] 2 DSP.

NOTE

Depending on the harmony/echo

type, harmony will be applied regard-

less of the chord played with your left

hand.

1[1 ▲▼] LEFT HOLD This function causes the LEFT part Voice to be

held even when the keys are released. Non-

decaying Voices such as strings are held continu-

ously, while decay-type Voices such as piano

decay more slowly (as if the sustain pedal has

been pressed).

When the Left Hold is ON, an “H” indication

appears in the Main display.

2[3 ▲▼] MONO/POLY This determines whether the part’s Voice is played

monophonically (only one note at a time) or poly-

phonically. Using the MONO mode lets you play

single, lead sounds (such as brass instruments)

more realistically. It also lets you expressively

control the Portamento effect (depending on the

selected Voice) by playing legato.

DSP/DSP

VARIATION

With the digital effects built into the instrument,

you can add ambience and depth to your music

in a variety of ways—various effect types, such

as chorus and delay are included.

• The DSP switch is used to turn the DSP (Digi-

tal Signal Processor) effect on or off for the cur-

rently selected keyboard part.

• The DSP Variation switch is used to change

between variations of the DSP effect. You could

use this while you play, for example, to change

the rotating speed (slow/fast) of the rotary

speaker effect.

4[I] HARMONY/

ECHO

When this is set to ON, the Harmony/Echo

effects are applied to the right-hand Voices

depending on the chord played with your left

hand. For details, refer to the Reference Manual

on the website.
