The “Tones” That Change the Piano Tone

You can switch among nine tones to select the tone you want for the piano
part.

The nine tones can be selected from three tones and three variations. You
can select the category by pressing either [A.PIANO], [E.PIANO], or
[OTHERS] buttons.

Press [VARIATION] button to select the variation.

The [VARIATION] button’s indicator changes each time the button is
pressed, cycling through “Off,” “Red,” and “Green,” indicating which
variation is currently selected.
