Selecting and Playing a Tone
Your digital piano has the following types of tones
built in.
1. Press the POWER button.
IMPORTANT!
• When you turn on the digital piano, it performs a power
up operation in order to prepare its system. The power up
operation takes about 10 seconds, and is indicated by
the following messages appearing on the display.
2. Use the VOLUME controller to adjust the
volume level.
3. Press one of the 14 TONE buttons to select
the tone you want.
• The names of the main tones are marked above the
TONE buttons.
• This will cause the lamp of the selected tone’s button
to light.
Example: GRAND PIANO 3
NOTE
• The DSP effect (pages E-26 and E-28) will be applied if
you select a tone with DSP.
• Note that the digital piano’s DSP resources are limited.
Because of this, selecting a tone with DSP can cause notes
that are currently being played to cut off (if they are
being played using a tone with DSP), or it can remove the
DSP effect from an operation (layer, split, demo song)
that was previously assigned a tone with DSP.
