Press the [RIGHT 1], [RIGHT 2], [LEAD], and/or [LEFT]
PART ON/OFF button(s), turning on the indicators corre-
sponding to the parts you want to play. When a part is turned on
the corresponding voice in the main play mode display will be
highlighted (i.e. inverted — white characters against a dark
background).
• The more parts you play simultaneously, the fewer the total number of
notes that can be played on the keyboard at the same time.
• When the LEFT part is on, the left voice will automatically be transposed
up one octave.
CSelect the Part You Want to Assign a Voice To.............................................................................................
The PART SELECT buttons above the PART ON/OFF
buttons determine which part is selected for voice assignments.
If you want to change the voice assigned to the RIGHT 1 part,
for example, the [RIGHT 1] PART SELECT indicator must be
lit. Each time you turn a part on using the PART ON/OFF
buttons, the corresponding PART SELECT button indicator
will light automatically. You can also directly press any of the
PART SELECT buttons. Only one P ART SELECT button can
be active at a time.
VSelect a Voice ..............................................................................
Use the VOICE group buttons to select the group from
which you want to select a voice. The corresponding voice
display will appear.
• Custom voices which can be selected via the [CUSTOM VOICE] button
can be created via the CUSTOM VOICE CREATOR mode described
on page 51, or loaded from disk.
Use the page-number LCD dials to select the page contain-
ing the voice you want if more than one page is available, then
press the LCD button corresponding to the desired voice. You
can also use either of the SELECT LCD dials to select any of the
voices within the selected group.

You can now play the selected voice or voices on the
keyboard. Use the [MASTER VOLUME] control to adjust the
overall volume level, and the MIXING CONSOLE MAIN
VOLUME LCD dials to set the desired balance between the
parts.
