Type  Multi Assign
The Multi Assign effect automatically assigns notes played simultaneously on the right-hand
section of the keyboard to separate parts (Voices). Both of the keyboard parts [Main] and
[Layer] should be turned on when using the Multi Assign effect. The Main and Layer Voices
are alternately assigned to the notes in the order you play.
 Echo Type (Echo, Tremolo and Trill)
When one of the Echo Types is selected, the corresponding effect (echo, tremolo, trill) is
applied to the note played in the right-hand section of the keyboard in time with the currently
set tempo, regardless of the [ACMP ON/OFF] and the Left part on/off status. Keep in mind
that Trill only works when you hold down two notes on the keyboard simultaneously (last two
notes if more than two notes are held), and it plays those notes alternately.
Volume This parameter is available for all types with the exception of “Multi Assign.” It determines the
level of the harmony/echo notes generated by the Harmony/Echo effect.
Speed This parameter is only available when Echo, Tremolo, or Trill is selected in Type above. It
determines the speed of the Echo, Tremolo, and Trill effects.
Assign This parameter is available for all types with the exception of “Multi Assign.” This lets you
determine the keyboard part via which the harmony/echo notes will be sounded.
• Auto: Applies the effect to the part which is turned on. When the both parts are on, the Main
part is given priority over the Layer part.
• Multi: When both parts are on, the note played on the keyboard is sounded by Main part and
the harmonies (effect) are divided to the Main and Layer parts. When only one part is on, the
note played on the keyboard and effect are sounded by that part.
• Main, Layer: Applies the effect to the selected part (Main or Layer).
Chord Note
Only This parameter is available when one of the Harmony Types is selected. When this is set to
“On,” the Harmony effect is applied only to notes (played in the right-hand section of the
keyboard) that belong to a chord played in the chord section of the keyboard.
Minimum
Velocity This parameter is available for all types with the exception of “Multi Assign.” It determines the
lowest velocity value at which the harmony note will sound. This allows you to selectively
apply the harmony by your playing strength, letting you create harmony accents in the
melody. The harmony effect is applied when you play the key strongly (above the set value).
