THE GRAND PIANO PRESET
The Grand Piano Preset is an exception to the
rule because, unlike the Presets of the PRO-
GRAMMABLE PRESETS section, this preset
recalls the Grand Piano sound with fixed param-
eter values (volume, pan setting, reverb effect,
etc.) which, if modified, cannot be memorized to
the Grand Piano Preset. If you attempt to store
any modifications that you apply to the GRAND
PIANO Preset, the instrument “invites” you to
save to the Programmable Presets.
What happens when you press the GRAND PI-
ANO button depends on the current mode se-
lected.
Select Grand Piano in Preset mode
If you are currently playing in Preset mode and
you select the GRAND PIANO preset, the cur-
rent Preset is cancelled and substituted by
GRAND PIANO. The GRAND PIANO PRESET
is displayed for a short period then the display
switches to the standard default situation. In
addition, the Upper 2 keyboard section is can-
celled and the Lower keyboard section is disa-
bled. Upper 1 activates across the Full keyboard.
Select Grand Piano in Style mode
If you are currently in Style mode and the Style is
not playing, selecting GRAND PIANO recalls
Variation 2 of the Style 8 Beat Standard from the
8 BEAT Style Group (unless already selected).
The keyboard sounds are substituted by GRAND
PIANO, the Upper 2 section is cancelled and the
Lower section is disabled. Upper 1 activates
across the Full keyboard.
If the Style is playing, the current Style remains
unchanged while the keyboard sounds are sub-
stituted by the GRAND PIANO preset as above.
Select Grand Piano in Song/Style or Song modes
If you are currently playing with Songs or Song/
Styles and you select the GRAND PIANO pre-
set, the current mode is cancelled and the instru-
ment sets to Real Time mode with GRAND PI-
ANO selected to play across the full keyboard.
You can, therefore, select GRAND PIANO when-
ever you want to escape the current mode to play
a single sound.
