Playing Different Tones with the Left
and Right Hands (Split Performance)
Dividing the keyboard into right-hand and left-hand areas, then playing
different sounds in each is called “Split performance.”
The boundary key is called the “split point.”
The split point key is included in the left-hand keyboard area. Each time
power to the keyboard is turned on, the split point is reset to “F#3.”
