Splitting the keyboard.
When the LEFT/SPLIT Part is activated, the CP automatically splits the keyboard and only the
sound assigned to the LEFT/SPLIT Part will be heard when you play below a specified key (split
point) on the keyboard. The default split point is between F2 and F#2 but you can freely change the
split point to any key on the keyboard.
To change the split point:
1) Press the LEFT/SPLIT button to activate the LEFT/SPLIT Part. The LEFT/SPLIT button LED will light
and the LCD screen will display a diagram of the CP’s 88 note keyboard.
2) Press the LEFT/SPLIT button again, and while holding it down, press the desired key on the keyboard
that you want to serve as the split point. The key you press will become the lowest note the Right
hand Parts will play (RIGHT1, RIGHT2, and SOLO). The LEFT/SPLIT sound will be heard when keys
below the split point are played.
You may also use the L4 and R4 buttons to move the split point. On the LCD screen the split point
marker will move across the 88 note keyboard diagram as you press these buttons.
• Moving the split point completely to the LEFT end of the keyboard will allow the LEFT/SPLIT
Part to function as a layer with the three right hand Parts. In this manner you can create four
part layered across the entire keyboard.
