Playing the Sounds from the Keyboard

press BALANCE [

] (to decrease the volume) or [

] (to

increase the volume).
To adjust the volume of the dual part, hold down [DUAL] and

press BALANCE [

] (to decrease the volume) or [

] (to

increase the volume).

As an alternative to using the FAMILY or SELECT [

][

]

buttons, you can also select tones using the numeric keys or TONE
category buttons.

1.

Press [TONE] so it’s lit.

2.

Press [NUMERIC] so it’s lit.

3.

Use TONE category buttons [1]–[0] to enter a tone number.
Example:

To enter “12”

Press [1] -> [2] and wait a few moments until the
number is confirmed. Alternatively, press [0] -> [1]
-> [2].

To select the tone for the split part, hold down [SPLIT] while
you enter the tone number.
To select the tone for the dual part, hold down [DUAL] while
you enter the tone number.

To defeat the numeric key function, press [NUMERIC] so it
goes out.

You can use the TONE category buttons to select tones directly,

without using [TONE], FAMILY [

][

], SELECT [

][

], or

numeric keys. This method lets you select from nine melody sounds
and one drum set.
You can assign a favorite tone to each button. This is convenient for
live performance, since you can select a tone simply by pressing a
single button.

Assigning other tones to the TONE
category buttons

After selecting a tone, press the TONE category button for the group
that includes the selected tone. The screen will briefly indicate
“Memorized.”
You can assign the following groups of tones to each of the category
buttons.

Drum Sets

The last sixty-one tones (615–675) are called “drum sets.” If you
select a drum set, a different sound is assigned to each note of the
keyboard. For example, you can use the leftmost key to play a bass
drum (kick) sound, and another key to play a snare drum sound.
A drum set is a collection of ninety or more sounds, each assigned to
a different key.

You can’t assign a drum set to the split part or dual part.

Sound Effects (SFX)

The E-09 contains numerous sound effects, drum, and percussion
tones (551–614). You can assign these tones to a keyboard part and
play them. These tones can be assigned to the main, split, or dual
part and played across the entire range of the keyboard.

If [SPLIT] is lit, you will probably want to set the split point
near

C6

if you want to use your right hand to play sound effects

or percussion, or near

C3

if you want to play these using your

left hand. (p. 22)

It’s convenient to sound the metronome while you’re practicing a
new song.

1.

Press [METRONOME] so it’s lit.

The metronome will sound.

2.

Hold down [METRONOME] for a while until the “Metro TS”
screen appears.

In this screen you can set the time signature of the metronome.

3.

Use TEMPO [

(-)][

(+)] to select a time signature.

Range: 1/4, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4, 6/4, 6/8, 9/8

4.

Use SELECT [

][

] to access the “Metro Vol” screen.

5.

Use TEMPO [

(-)][

(+)] to adjust the volume.

Range: 0–127

6.

When you press the [METRONOME] button so it goes out,
the metronome will stop sounding.
