Section 1 — Getting Started
EPS-16 PLUS Musician's Manual
If you play now, you will hear the bass in the bottom two octaves and the Piano
over the rest of the keyboard. If you de-select the bass (by pressing its
instrument button again) its LED goes from yellow back to red and it returns the
whole keyboard range to the piano.
This same logic applies no matter how many instruments are loaded and selected.
Whichever one you select comes to the "top of the pile."
Important: The "Pile" described here only exists in LOAD Mode. In EDIT and COMMAND
modes, only one instrument can ever be selected at a time.
Additional Notes:
• Whenever a selected instrument is covered up completely by the selection of
another, its LED changes from yellow back to red—it is automatically de-
selected.
• Up to all eight instruments can be selected and can play on some part of the
keyboard at once, as long as none is covered up completely. Also, up to all
eight instruments can be stacked at once.
• Instruments which you "stack" by double-clicking their instrument buttons will
play simultaneously with whatever other instruments are on the pile. Selecting
another instrument, however, will bring that instrument to the top, covering up
any stacked instruments as well as any selected ones.
• You can reset any instruments key range. This is done on the EDIT/Pitch page.
See Section 7—Voice Parameters for details.
