Chapter 2. Performance

Playing Different Tones with the Left

and Right Hands (Split Performance)

Dividing the keyboard into right-hand and left-hand areas, then playing different

sounds in each is called “Split performance.” The boundary key is called the “split

point.”

Press the [Split] button.

The button’s indicator will light.

The keyboard is divided into right-hand and left-hand areas.

The tone you were playing before you pressed the [Split] button will be selected for

the right-hand area, and a tone that is a suitable match for the right-hand tone (e.g.,

a bass tone) will be selected for the left-hand area.

To cancel Split performance, press the [Split] button, getting its indicator to go dark.

Changing tone played by the left hand

Press the [Variation] button.

Each time you press the [Variation] button, the button’s indicator will change color,

and the left-hand tone will change.

Some tones assign the tone that had been selected before you pressed the [Split]

button to the left hand area of the keyboard.

Changing tone played by the right hand

Press the Tone button.

The tone of the right-hand area will change.

If you want to change the variation for the right-hand tone, cancel Split performance

and then re-select the tone.

HP-7

When Split performance is

used, only tone numbers 1 or 2

can be selected.

If you use Split performance

with a Tone button for which

tone numbers 3 or 4 selected,

tone number 1 will be selected

for that Tone button.

When using Dual
performance, press the
[Split] button
The right hand will play the
tone of the left button of Dual
performance, and the left hand
will play a suitable match for
the right-hand tone.

For information about the
tones that can be selected for
the left hand section, refer to
the “Tone List” (p. 41).

The selected left hand tone is
remembered for each Tone
button. When you turn off the
power, it will return to the
original setting.

In Split performance, the
damper pedal will be applied
only to the right-hand area of
the keyboard. If you want the
damper pedal to be applied to
the left-hand area, refer to
“Applying the damper pedal
to the left-hand keyboard
area” (p. 35).
