PLAY WITH A PRESET ARABIC SCALE

The Arabic Scale Memory section contains 3 preset (ROM) Arabic Scales
(factory-set which cannot be permanently erased from memory).

1. Press one of the 3 Arabic Scale Memory buttons (1, 2, 3) to select a

preset Arabic Scale.

The corresponding LED turns on. At the same time, one or more buttons
of the ARABIC SCALE section activate (shown by the corresponding LED)
to identify the Arabic notes.

PLAY MANUAL BASS

In Real Time Mode, WK1 Or adds a fourth Sound to the keyboard, allow-
ing you to play bass manually.

5. Press Function button F2 twice and play again with both hands.

The display shows the activation of the Bas section with the BAS symbol
above the BASS track.

A fourth sound (PickBass) is now added to the other three. You will hear
a layered combination of two sounds on the right and a layered
combination of two sounds on the left (below note F#3).

6. Deactivate LOWER (if on) and play on the keyboard.

The LED of the Lower button goes off and the Upper 1 and 2 sounds
will play together with the Bass Sound. If you now deactivate both
Upper 1 and Upper 2 section, the Bass sound will play across the
entire keyboard.

It is also possible to set WK1 Or to power up with the Manual Bass
active by memorizing the corresponding panel situation in the power-
up Performance. Manual Bass is governed by the AUTO MANUAL
BASS option under the ARRANGE MODE function (see the Styles
chapter). The default setting of AUTO MANUAL BASS is ON.

The pitch of the Arabic notes will be lowered by 1/4 of a tone. Recalling an

Arabic Scale affects the keyboard on a global basis, regardless of th
ecurrent mode.

2. To recall a different preset Arabic scale, simply press one of the other

Memory buttons.

The previous button will cancel and the Arabic Scale will change configu-
ration according to which Memory button is pressed.

3. To cancel the selected Arabic Scale, press the Cancel button.

The preset Arabic Scale cancels and restores the instrument to the normal
(equal) playing scale.

Refer to the Arabic Scale chapter for more information regarding the se-
lection and programming of Arabic Scales.
