Description

VOLUME

Style Volume

000–127

100

Determines the volume of the Style.

Song Volume

000–127

100

Determines the volume of the Song.

OVERALL

Tuning

415.3–466.2Hz

440.0Hz

Sets the pitch of the instrument’s sound.

Pitch Bend Range

01–12

2

Sets the pitch bend range in semitone increments.

Split Point

036–096

(C1–C6)

054 (F

#

2)

Determines the highest key for the Split Voice and sets the Split 
“point”—in other words, the key that separates the Split (lower) and 
Main (upper) Voices. The Split Point setting and Accompaniment Split 
Point setting are automatically set to the same value.

Touch Sensitivity

1 (Soft), 
2 (Medium), 
3 (Hard)

2 (Medium)

Determines the keyboard touch sensitivity. Small values will produce 
a high volume level even if the key is hit softly. Large values require 
that the keys be played relatively hard to produce maximum loudness.

Chord Fingering

1 (Multi Finger), 
2 (FullKeyboard), 
3 (AI Finger)

1 (Multi Finger)

Sets the chord detection mode. In the Multi Finger mode, both normal 
chords and simple chords played to the left of the split point are 
detected. In the Full Keyboard mode normal chords played anywhere 
on the keyboard will be detected, and the notes played will sound as 
well. The AI Finger mode is basically the same as Multi Finger, except 
that less than three notes can be played to indicate the chords (based 
on the previously played chord, etc.). However, Easy chords 
described in the Owner’s Manual cannot be detected in the AI Finger 
mode.

MAIN/DUAL: ON

“STYLE” Part is Style playback.

External Scale Tune

OFF, 
ON (KEYBOARD)

Off

Selects the part to which the Scale Tune MIDI messages received 
from an external MIDI device will be applied. With the default setting 
of “OFF,” MIDI messages are applied to Song channels 1–16, but not 
to the keyboard performance. If you set this to “ON (KEYBOARD),” 
the MIDI messages are applied to the keyboard performance as fol-
lows: Channel 1 = Main Voice, Channel 2 = Dual Voice, and Channel 
3 = Left Voice; the other channels are not affected.

Main Pan

000–64–127

A value of “0” results in the sound being panned full left, while “127”
