Dividing the Keyboard for Two-person Performance (Twin Piano)

You can divide the keyboard into left and right zones so that two people can play the same range of pitches, just as though there were two pianos.
This function is called “Twin Piano.”
For example, you could use Twin Piano to allow a student to play along with their teacher.
