Four Hands Mode
The Four Hands Mode function divides the keyboard into two sections in a similar way to that of the Split Mode
function. However, with Four Hands Mode enabled, the octave/pitch of each section is automatically adjusted to
create two separate 44-key instruments with the same playing range. Furthermore, the sustain (right) pedal and
soft (left) pedal act as separate sustain pedals for the respective upper and lower sections, allowing two people to
perform piano duets using a single instrument.
