level display. It is not adjustable from the +/YES or –/NO Buttons. It is adjust-
able only by the Song Volume Slider Control located next to the Bass and Treble
sliding controls.
When the Song Volume Function Mode is engaged the LCD screen will show the
numerical value of the Song Volume when the Song Volume Slider Control is
moved to the left or to the right.

in entire Octave increments. The range is 2+ to 2- from normal Keyboard note
