Casio SA-65 - Manual (Page 11)

E-11
Tones
Some tones actually assign two or more different sounds to the
keyboard. The sound produced when you press a key depends
on where the key is located, as illustrated below.
Polyphony
This keyboard can play up to four notes at the same time when there is no pattern or Song Bank
tune being played. Even if you press more than four keys, only four notes will sound at the same
time.
Digitally Sampled Tones
This keyboard features a number of digitally sampled tones, which are digital recordings of
musical instruments. Actually, three recordings are made for each tone, covering the low range,
middle range, and high range.
• The point where the key to the left falls in one range and the key to the right falls in a different
range is called a “split point.” With some tones, you may notice a very slight difference in tone
quality or volume between the two keys at a split point. This is an unavoidable result of the
sampling process, and does not indicate malfunction of the keyboard.
• The sounds of some tones do not change pitch no matter which keyboard key you press.
