Various Settings

You can divide the keyboard into left and right sections so that two

people can play the same range of pitches.

This means that you’ll be able to use the keyboard as though it were

two separate pianos.

For example, this provides a convenient way for one person to

follow along with another person’s performance to check it. See the

illustration at the bottom of this page.

When you turn Twin Piano on, the instrument will be in the

following state.

• The keyboard will be divided into left and right sections, with

“middle C” located in the center of each section.

• The left and right sections will have the same sound (Grand Piano 1).

• The right pedal will be the damper pedal for the right section, and

the left pedal will be the damper pedal for the left section.

• If the Split function or the Dual function was on when you turned

Twin Piano on, the Split function and the Dual function will be

turned off.

Some effects (p. 22) will be turned off.

You can also decide to assign the left section only to the left

speaker and the right half only to the right speaker, when set

Twin Piano mode to “2.”

1.

Hold down the [Song] button and press the [Metronome]

button.

The display will indicate “Fnc” and you’ll be in Function mode.

2.

Press the [Reverb] button to select “tPn.”

3.

Release the [Reverb] button to see the current setting.

4.

Use the [–] [+] buttons to change the setting.

You can choose one of the following ways in which the sound will

be heard.

This setting is not remembered when you switch off the RP201.

The next time you switch the RP201 on, this parameter reverts

to the “OFF” setting.

If you set this parameter to “2,” reverb will no longer be

applied.

For some sounds, the sound may not be split even if you set

Twin Piano mode to “2.”

5.

Press the [Song] or [Metronome] button to leave

Function mode.

If you selected “1” or “2,” the display now shows the following to
