Performing with Ensemble

( ENSEMBLE)

Here’s how to play the Ensemble part. This part lets you play high-quality sounds from the keyboard.

You can switch the sound (e.g., brass ensemble using SuperNATURAL technology, or strings) by selecting a

sound button.

Selecting a Sound

Press a button to select a sound.

To play an Ensemble sound, press one of the buttons to make it light. If you press a button that’s already lit,

it will go dark and the Ensemble part will no longer produce sound.

You can simultaneously play more than one part by turning on a sound button for the Vocal
Designer and/or Bass & Percussion parts. If you want to hear only the Ensemble part, simply turn
off the sound buttons for the other parts so that they are dark.
