Chapter 2. Performance
Playing Different Tones with the Left
and Right Hands (Split Performance)
Dividing the keyboard into right-hand and left-hand areas, then playing different
sounds in each is called “Split performance.” The boundary key is called the “split
point.”

Press the [Split] button.
The button’s indicator will light.
The keyboard is divided into right-hand and left-hand areas.
The tone you were playing before you pressed the [Split] button will be selected for
the right-hand area, and a tone that is a suitable match for the right-hand tone (e.g.,
a bass tone) will be selected for the left-hand area.
To cancel Split performance, press the [Split] button, getting its indicator to go dark.
Changing tone played by the left hand
Press the [Variation] button.
Each time you press the [Variation] button, the button’s indicator will change color,
and the left-hand tone will change.
Some tones assign the tone that had been selected before you pressed the [Split]
button to the left hand area of the keyboard.
Changing tone played by the right hand
Press the Tone button.
The tone of the right-hand area will change.
If you want to change the variation for the right-hand tone, cancel Split performance
and then re-select the tone.

When Split performance is
used, only tone numbers 1 or 2
can be selected.
If you use Split performance
with a Tone button for which
tone numbers 3 or 4 selected,
tone number 1 will be selected
for that Tone button.
When using Dual 
performance, press the 
[Split] button 
The right hand will play the 
tone of the left button of Dual 
performance, and the left hand 
will play a suitable match for 
the right-hand tone.
For information about the 
tones that can be selected for 
the left hand section, refer to 
the “Tone List” (p. 41).
The selected left hand tone is 
remembered for each Tone 
button. When you turn off the 
power, it will return to the 
original setting.
In Split performance, the 
damper pedal will be applied 
only to the right-hand area of 
the keyboard. If you want the 
damper pedal to be applied to 
the left-hand area, refer to 
“Applying the damper pedal 
to the left-hand keyboard 
area” (p. 35).
