TUTORIAL: BASIC OPERATIONS

TUTORIAL

Basic Operations

You can adjust the volume balance between the two sounds. Use the

DUAL/SPLIT BALANCE slider to adjust the balance.

Move the slider

to the right to increase the volume of the rightmost preset sound and

decrease the volume of the leftmost preset sound. The balance changes

in the opposite way when the slider is moved to the left.

SPLIT

The CA piano provides you with another type of sound combination called

a split. The split function divides the keyboard into two sections—upper

keyboard

and lower keyboard—and lets you play a different sound in

each section.

Press the SPLIT button to activate the split function. Press the

SOUND SELECT button for the sound you would like to use for

the upper keyboard. Then, while holding down the SPLIT button,

press another SOUND SELECT button to select a sound for the

lower keyboard.

The LED indicator for the upper sound will be turned

on and the LED for the lower sound will start flashing. The LCD display

will show the names of the two selected sounds.

Sound name for the upper keyboard
Sound name for the lower keyboard

You can adjust the volume balance between the two sounds. Use the

Dual/Split Balance slider to adjust the balance.

Move the slider to

the right to increase the volume of the upper sound and decrease the

volume of the lower sound. The balance changes in the opposite way

when the slider is moved to the left.

The split point determines where the upper keyboard section will be

divided from the lower one. You can move the split point to any key you

like. To do this, please read “8. Split Button” in the Reference section,

page 56.

ABOUT POLYPHONY

The CA piano is capable of playing up to 64 notes simultaneously (64-

note polyphony). When playing in dual mode, or when playing the stereo

piano sound, the polyphony will be reduced by half since the piano has to

produce two sounds for each note.
