ORCH. 1
In this mode a single voice — the ORCH. 1 voice — can be played across the entire keyboard.
ORCH. 2+1
This is a “dual” mode in which two voices — ORCH. 1 and ORCH. 2 — can be played simultaneously
across the entire keyboard.
ORCH. 2
v
1
This is a “split” mode in which the ORCH. 2 voice is played on the left-hand section of the keyboard
(to the left of the “split point” — see “NOTES” below), while the ORCH. 1 voice is played on the right-
hand section of the keyboard.

Split Point (F
#
2)
• The lowest key on the keyboard is C1.
NOTES
• The split point for the PSR-6000 is initially set at F
#
2.
This means that when the “ORCH. 2
v
1” mode is
selected, the ORCH. 2 voice will be played by all keys
to the left of and including F
#
2, while the ORCH. 1 voice
will be played on all keys to the right of F
#
2. You can
change the split point to any key desired as described
on page 16.
• Since two voices are played simultaneously in the dual
and split modes, the total number of notes that can be
played on the keyboard at the same time is reduced.
• When the “ORCH.2+1” mode is selected and the same
voice is selected for both ORCH. 1 and ORCH. 2, the
sound may be slightly different from the normal voice.
• When the “ORCH.2
v
1” mode is selected, the ORCH.
2 voice will automatically be transposed up one octave.

from which you want to select a voice. The corre-
sponding voice display will appear.
NOTES
• The display will automatically revert to the main display
after a few seconds if the [LIST HOLD] button is not
engaged (page 11).
