Viscount Maestro – Grande - Sinfonia

For instance, if you set
Bass Mode to OVERLAP and Priority to LEFT, making
some chords with your left hand, these will be played by the 1ST and/or 2ND parts,
whereas the MANUAL BASS will play the lowest note of the chord.
The
1st and 2nd Play Mode field, finally, allows to set the two parts in layer mode
only on a zone of the keyboard: when the Split Mode is selected (PROG.SPLIT button
lighted up), setting
1st and 2nd Play Mode to LAYER, the 1ST and 2ND parts will play
overlaid in the highest part of the keyboard, down to the point defined by the
Split
Sections voice; on the contrary, if you set the 1st and 2nd Play Mode to Split, the 1ST
and 2ND part will be normally associated to the two splits. This setting, obviously, has
no effect if the keyboard is in LAYER Mode: in this case, the two parts will play overlaid
even below the split point.
As the keyboard mode is stored in the performances, it is possible to recall a
setting, even a complex one, by just pressing a button. For further information on that,
please refer to Chapter 8.
