Selecting a Tone

This keyboard comes with 100 built-in tones. Use
the following procedure to select the tone you want
to use.

To select a tone

1

Find the tone you want to use in the tone
list and note its tone number.
• Not all of the available tones are shown on

the tone list printed on the keyboard
console. For a complete list, see the “Tone
List” on page A-1.

2

Press the TONE button.

3

Use the number buttons to input the two
digit tone number for the tone you want to
select.
Example: To select “26 WOOD BASS”, input

2 and then 6 .

• Now notes played on the keyboard will be

played using an acoustical wood bass
sound.

NOTE

• Always input both digits for the tone number,

including a leading zero (if any). If you input
one digit and stop, the display will
automatically clear your input after a few
seconds.

• You can also increment the displayed tone

number by pressing [+] and decrement it by
pressing [–].

• Sound effect tones such as 77 VEHICLE

sound best when you keep a keyboard key
depressed.
