The Lower manual will be divided or split into two sections:
Ë Pressing the [+]/[-] or [++]/[--] buttons in the EDIT section allow you to move the split point on the
Lower manual. Use these buttons to set the desired split point.
Ì
Now you can select and layer Tones for the keybass section using the same procedure described for
the Upper and (complete) Lower manuals. The Tone(s) previously selected for the Lower manual will
now only apply to the section to the right of the split point.
Note also that there are four BASS drawbars which you can use to control the Drawbar organ sound when
the BASS section [CURRENT DRAWBAR] button is lit. (Remember that drawbars for a particular section
are active only when the corresponding [CURRENT DRAWBAR] button is lit.)
The drawbar parameters that we mentioned earlier also apply to the Bass drawbar sounds. Refer to 'Drawbar
Parameters' on page 113 for information about them.
BASS SUSTAIN/SOLO
When the BASS [SUSTAIN] button is lit, a release sustain is added to the Bass Tones played. This release
time is variable:
Ê Press the [SUSTAIN] button in the BASS section; 'Bass Sustain' will appear in the LCD.
Ë
Set the release time (0-10) with the [+]/[-] buttons. (Higher numbers create a longer release time.)
The Pedalboard also contains a Solo function which works in a similar way as with the keyboards (however,
there are no Arpeggio modes):
Ì Press [NEXT] as necessary until the words 'Bass Sustain Solo Mode' appear in the LCD.
Í
With the [+]/[-] buttons, select the desired Solo mode: High, Low, Last, First or Poly.
Refer to 'BASS [SUSTAIN] Parameters' on page 116.
