Using the Upper 2 part
The EM-55 OR’s Upper 1 part is assigned to the right half of the keyboard (in ARRANGER mode) or to the
entire keyboard (PIANO mode).
In all modes except M.DRUMS, you can add a
second part (Upper 2) to Upper 1 by pressing the
[UPPER 2] button. This allows you to play two
sounds simultaneously (piano and strings, for
example). It is also possible to switch off Upper 1
and only work with Upper 2. This allows for
quick question-and-answer switches.
(1) Select the desired KBD MODE (ARRANGER
or PIANO).
(2) Press the [UPPER 2] button (indicator
must light) to switch on the Upper 2 part.
(3) To use both Upper 1 and Upper 2, switch
on both [UPPER 1] and [UPPER 2].
You can also add the Lower part if you like,
so as to play three sounds simultaneously. If
the KBD MODE [ARRANGER] indicator
lights, however, the Lower part can be
played via the left half, while Upper 1 and
Upper 2 can be played via the right half.
(4) To select another Tone for Upper 2, press
and hold the [UPPER 2] button until its
indicator starts flashing, then use the [A/
B], [1]~[8] and possibly also the [VARIA-
TION/STYLE DISK] button.
See p. 15 for selecting Tones and below for
selecting Variations
Selecting Tone Variations
Tone Variations are alternatives for the Tones you can select with the numeric keypad. The PIANO bank, for
instance, contains a grand piano, an upright piano, an electric piano, etc. These are the Tones. If you also
want to specify the kind of grand piano (mellow, bright, stereo/mono), you need to turn to the Variations
(i.e. “Tone subcategories”).
Variations are indicated by means of a smaller
number in the upper left corner of the display
(see the illustration).
(1) Press the [TONE] button.
(2) Select the desired Tone with [A/B] and
[1]~[8] (see p. 15).
(3) Press the [VARIATION/STYLE DISK] button
to step through the available Variations.
See the Tone list on page 61. The number of
Variations depends on the Tone you select.
Whenever the Variation entry in the address
field is empty, the “main” Tone (called Cap-
ital
) is selected.
You can also select Variations by holding
down [VARIATION/STYLE DISK] while you
press [7] (
√
) or [8] (
