Playing the keyboard with two persons (Duo mode)
When the Duo mode is activated on this instrument, two different players can play the
instrument simultaneously, with the same sound, over the same octave ran
g e—one per-
son on the left and the other on the ri g ht. This is useful for learnin g applications, in
which one person (a teacher, for example) plays a model performance and the other
person watches and practices while sittin
g at the first person’s side.
1
Press the [FUNCTION] button several
times until “DuoMode” (Function 050;
pa
g e 57) appears on the display.
2
Use the [+/YES] button to select “on.”
The F
#
3 key becomes the Duo Split Point and the
keyboard is divided into two sections: one for the
left Voice and one for the right Voice.
3
One person should play the left Voice
section of the keyboard while the other
plays the ri
g ht Voice section.
4
To exit from the Duo mode, select “oFF”
via “DuoMode” (Function 050; pa
g e 57)
by executin g steps 1 and 2.
Chan g in g the Left Voice
To change only the Left Voice, select the desired
Left Voice with “DuoLVc” (Function 051; page 57).
If the Left Voice is different from the Right Voice,
the Right Voice is shown on the display.
How sounds are output in the Duo mode
The performance sound of the left Voice will
sound from the left speaker, and the performance
sound of the right Voice will sound from the right
speaker, in the initial Duo mode setting. This out-
put setting can be changed from the “DuoType”
setting (Function 057; page 57).
Usin g sustain in the Duo mode
Sustain can be applied to the left and right Voice
sections in Duo mode just as it normally is by
using one of the following methods in the Duo
mode like the usual mode.
• Press the foot switch (page 14) connected to
the [SUSTAIN] jack.
• Set “Sustain” (Function 026; page 55) to on.
Sustain is applied to all notes.
• The right Voice section and the left Voice section of the
keyboard are both set to the same Voice (Main Voice).
• The Duo Split Point can be changed via Function number
052 (page 57).

NOTE
• Certain functions such as Lesson, Harmony/Arpeggio
and Dual cannot be used in the Duo mode.
• In the Duo mode, the pan, volume and tonal characteris-
tics of the stereo sound may differ from those in the nor-
mal mode, due to the setting of DuoType = “Separate”
(page 57). Particularly with Drum Kits, the difference may
be more obvious, since each key of a Drum Kit features a
different stereo pan position.
• Sustain cannot be applied independently to the left Voice
section and the right Voice section.
• While Sustain is on, the setting of hold is maintained even
when the power is turned off.
