If you press [HOLD] (lights up
in red), you can have the note
continue to play after you
release the note-entry button
(Hold function). When a note
is played using the Hold
function, the note-entry button
blinks in amber. To stop the
held note, press the note-entry
button again.
To cancel the Hold function,
press [HOLD] again to turn off
the button.

You can raise or lower the
octave setting by pressing [-
OCT] or [+OCT] to the right of
[PREVIEW].
Each time you press [-OCT],
the octave goes down. Each
time you press [+OCT], the
octave goes up. You can shift
by up to four octaves in either
direction. You can check the
current octave through the
blinking of the button. To
restore the original conditions,
press [-OCT] and [+OCT]
simultaneously.

By holding down [PREVIEW]
and pressing [VALUE ▼/▲],
you can set the Velocity value
(000–127) for the notes played
with the note-entry buttons.
However, this setting is not
saved.
