Performing

You can play two different sounds from a single key at the same time. This method of
performance is called “Dual Play.”
As an example, let’s try layering piano and strings sounds.

fig.Panel-Tones-e.eps

1.

Hold down the [Piano] button and press the [Strings] button.

The indicators for both buttons light.
Try fingering the keyboard. Both the piano and strings sounds play.

Pressing two Tone buttons at the same time in this manner activates Dual Play.
Of the two selected tones, the one for the tone button at left is called “Tone 1” and the one for the
button at right is called “Tone 2.”

You can’t select Dual Play if you’ve turned on Split Performance or Twin Piano.

Turning Off Dual Play

1.

Press any one of the Tone buttons.

Now you’ll hear only the tone of the button you pressed.

You can change the pitch of the Tone 2 an octave at a time. Refer to p. 66.

You can vary the volume-level balance of the two tones. Take a look at “Changing the
Volume Balance for Dual Play” (p. 34).

If you press the damper pedal while using Dual Performance, the effect will be applied
to both Tone 1 and Tone 2. However, you can change this setting so that the damper
pedal will affect only one of the tones. Refer to “Changing How the Damper Pedal
Effects Is Applied (Damper Pedal Part)” (p. 67).

Depending on the combination of the two tones, the effect may not be applied to Tone
2.
