Selecting and Playing a Tone

E-13

IMPORTANT!

• You can select a tone for each zone in both the 

MASTER CONTROL and CARD PLAYER modes. 
Note however that some procedures and operations 
(lamp lighting status) when a tone is selected for 
each zone in the CARD PLAYER mode are different 
from those in the case of the MASTER CONTROL 
mode.
Here, explanations are based on selecting a tone for 
each zone in the MASTER CONTROL mode. For 
information about selecting tones in the CARD 
PLAYER mode, see “To select a tone for each zone 
in the CARD PLAYER mode” (page E-44).

NOTE

When using Layer and/or Split to play more than 
one tone at the same time, you can adjust the volume 
balance of each zone, perform octave shift for each 
zone, and configure detailed settings for the effects 
applied to zones. For details about parameters that 
can be configured and setting procedures, see 
“Editing Zone Parameters” (page E-28).

Layering Two Tones

1.

Use the “Tone List” (page E-57) to look up the 
group(s) and numbers of the two tones 
(UPPER 1 zone tone and UPPER 2 zone 
tone) you want to use.

2.

Check to make sure that the both the

unlit.

For details about selecting tones, see “To select a 
tone” (page E-11).

5.

Press the 

cs

 

(LAYER)

 button so its lamp is lit.

At this time the 

4

 

(UPPER 1)

 button lamp will go out

(UPPER 2)

 button lamp will light in its 

place. This indicates you can select the UPPER 2 zone 
tone.

6.

Select the UPPER 2 zone tone.

7.

Play something on the keyboard to check 
how the tones sound layered together.

At any time you can press the 

4

 

(UPPER 1)

 button to
