The Dual Voice mode lets you create richly textured sounds by “layering”
two different voices together — one voice being the Main voice selected in
the normal way (page 27), and the other a Dual voice selected as described
below.
1
Turn on the Dual Voice mode.
Press the DUAL button.
When you play the keyboard, both the currently selected Main and Dual
voices will be heard.
2
Select the desired Dual voice and make other set-
tings for the voice (if desired) in the Function mode.
To do this, first call up the Function mode by pressing the FUNCTION
button.
• Since the “FUNCTION”
indication flashes for only a
couple of seconds, make
sure to select the parameter
quickly after step 2 above.
• For the Dual voice to be
heard properly, make sure
to:
* Select a different voice
(#17, Dual Voice).
* Set the volume to an
appropriate level (#11, Dual
Volume).

Function parameter numbers can be selected in the same way as with the
voices (see page 28) — with the numeric keypad, +/- keys, or the FUNC-
TION button.
The Dual Voice mode can
also be turned on and off
with a connected
footswitch. (See page 91.)
To turn the Dual mode off, press the DUAL
button again.
