Sustain causes a sound to slowly fade away after the keys are released. Without sustain, the sound of the
keys stop immediately upon being released. This feature allows you to individually change the sustain
lengths in specific sections.

UPPER STRINGS/VOCAL
(U Stg Vocal) - the green String/Vocal Sustain tab in the UPPER section.
LOWER FLUTES
- the green Lower Flute Sustain tab.
LOWER STRINGS/VOCAL
(L Stg Vocal) - the green String/Vocal Sustain tab in the LOWER section.
BASS TABS
- the orange Bass Sustain tab in the BASS section.
AUTO BASS
- the orange buttons in the RHYTHM PLUS ORCHESTRATION section. This is only affect-
ed when a Rhythm Style is on and you are actually playing the Bass Pedals.

This feature gives you the ability to determine your own personal choice of what harmony notes and sounds
you wish to hear when using the AOC-type harmonies in the HARMONY section.

you to select which of the tabs or buttons you wish to change. It will
also indicate the factory setting in each section.
