The Dual Voice Mode
When the DUAL VOICE mode is engaged you can play two voices (the R1 and R2
voices) simultaneously across the entire keyboard.
The DUAL VOICE mode is turned on and off by pressing the [DUAL VOICE]
button. When the DUAL VOICE mode is turned on both R1 and R2 icons in the display
will light. Press the [DUAL VOICE] button a second time to turn the DUAL V OICE
mode off: the R2 icon in the display will go out leaving only the R1 icon lit.
In the Syle mode, the R2 TRACK button below the display (second from the right)
can also be used to turn the R2 voice on or off as required.
The HARMONY effect
(page 47) cannot be
turned on while a
drum kit is selected
for the “R1” voice, and
will automatically be
turned off if a drum kit
is selected while
HARMONY is on.
The TRANSPOSE pa-
rameter (page 56) has
no effect on the drum
kit voices.
See page 140 for a
complete listing of the
keyboard percussion
drum instrument as-
signments.
The R1/R2 voice set-
tings (voice param-
eters) can be changed
as required by using
the REVOICE function,
described on page
110.
The R1 voice cannot
be turned off.
The DUAL VOICE
mode can be used at
the same time as the
SPLIT VOICE mode,
described below. In
this case the L voice is
played on the left-hand
section of the key-
board while both the
R1 and R2 voices are
played on the right-
hand section of the
keyboard. See the
“The Split Voice Mode”
section, below, for
more information.
