Using the Controllers
You can control tone, volume, pitch and other parameters by using the controllers on
the front panel, as well as by using external controllers connected to several controller
jacks on the rear panel.

Use the Pitch Bend wheel to bend notes up (roll the wheel away from you) or down (roll the wheel toward
you) while playing the keyboard. This wheel is self-centering and will automatically return to normal pitch
when released. Try out the Pitch Bend wheel while pressing a note on the keyboard.

■Modulation wheel ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ●

This controller is used to apply vibrato to the keyboard sound.
The more you move this wheel up, the greater the effect that is applied to the sound.
Try out the Modulation wheel with various Preset Voices while playing the keyboard.
