Basic Operations

This section provides information on performing basic
keyboard operations.

Playing the Keyboard

To play the keyboard

1

Set the POWER/MODE switch to NORMAL.

2

Use the MAIN VOLUME slider to lower the
keyboard volume.

• It’s always a good idea to set the keyboard volume at

a relatively low level before playing.

3

Play something on the keyboard.

Selecting a Tone

This keyboard comes with 242 built-in tones. Use the
following procedure to select the tone you want to use.

To select a tone

1

Find the tone you want to use in the TONE List and
note its tone number.

• Not all of the available tones are shown on the tone

list printed on the keyboard console. For a complete
list, see the “Tone List” on page A-1.

2

Press the TONE button.

3

Use the number buttons to input the three digit tone
number for the tone you want to select.

Example: To select “041 ACOUSTIC BASS”, input 0, 4 and

then 1.

NOTE

• Always input all three digits for the tone number,

including leading zeros (if any). If you input one or two
digits and stop, the display will automatically clear your
input after a few seconds.

• You can also increment the displayed tone number by

pressing [+] and decrement it by pressing [–].

Combination tones

The following describes the two types of combination tones
that are available.

Layered Tones (Tone Numbers: 098 through 107)

Example: 098 STRINGS PIANO

This tone layers a strings tone with a piano tone so they both
sound when a keyboard key is pressed.

Split Tones (Tone Numbers: 108 through 112)

Example: 108 BASS/PIANO

This tone splits the keyboard so one range is assigned a bass
tone and another range is assigned a piano tone.
