YING THE
PIANO
6) FOUR HANDS MODE
The FOUR HANDS function divides the keyboard of the CN32 digital piano into separate Upper and Lower sections
in a similar way to that of the SPLIT function. In addition, the octave/pitch of each section is also adjusted,
allowing two people to play the piano together.
Step 1
Press and hold the SPLIT button, then press the damper/sustain (right) pedal and the soft (left) pedal
together.
The LED indicator for the SPLIT button will start to
fl ash, indicating that FOUR HANDS mode has been
activated.
In addition, the LED indicator for the Upper section
sound button will also turn on, while the Lower
section sound button will start to fl ash.
The selected sound variation numbers will be shown
in the LED display.
The left number represents the Lower section, while
the right number represents the Upper section.
When activating FOUR HANDS mode for the fi rst
time, the sound of both the Upper and Lower sections
will be set to Concert Grand.
Step 2
Play the piano.
With FOUR HANDS mode activated, the sounds in the Upper section are transposed two octaves down from the
original pitch, while sounds from the Lower section are transposed two octaves up from the original pitch, allowing
two people to play within the same key range.
The number of keys used for the Upper and Lower sections can be freely adjusted by changing the Split Point.
The default Split Point setting is set between E3 and F3.
When FOUR HANDS mode is activated, the Lower Octave Shift function can be used to adjust the octave range for the
Lower section. Please refer to the instructions on page 40 for more information.
