A Word About the “R1”, “R2”, and “L” Voices
The PSR-530 allows up to three voices to be selected at the same time: “R1” (Right-
hand 1), “R2”, (Right-hand 2) and “L” (Left-hand). Only the “R1” voice is used when
you’re playing a single voice over the entire range of the keyboard. When you’re using
the DUAL VOICE and/or SPLIT VOICE modes (decribed on pages 19 and 20),
however, the “R2” and/or “L” voice will be used as well. The numbers of the currently
selected R1, R2, and L voices are all shown on the display panel.
See the “Voice List” on page 99.
