P-90 Selecting & Playing Voices

ENGLISH

Splitting the Keyboard Range and Playing Two Dif-

ferent Voices (Split mode)

Split mode enables you to play two different voices on the keyboard — one with the left hand and

another with the right hand. For example, you can play a bass part using the Wood Bass or Electric

Bass voice with the left hand, and a melody with the right hand.

1. Engage Split mode.

Press the [SPLIT] button so that its indicator lights. The default setting (WOOD

BASE)

will be selected for the left-hand voice at ﬁrst.

The Function mode provides access to a number of other Split mode functions

(page 38). (If you make no settings for Split mode functions, the appropriate

setting will be set in each voice by default.)

2. Specify the split point (the border between the

right-and left-hand range).

You can change the split point to any other key by pressing the key while hold-

ing the [SPLIT] button (the name of the current split-point key appears on the

LED display while the [SPLIT] button is held).

The split point is initially set at the F



2 key by default.

If you do not need to change the split point, skip this procedure.

3. Select a voice for the right hand.

Press a voice button.

4. Select a voice for the left hand.

Press the corresponding voice button while holding the [SPLIT] button. (The

indicator of the Left Voice button will light while the [SPLIT] button is pressed.)

To turn the variation on or off for the split voice, hold the [SPLIT] button and

press the [VARIATION] button or the currently-selected voice button.

Procedure

Dual (page 23) and Split

(page 23) modes cannot be

engaged simultaneously.

A speciﬁed “split point” key is

included in the left-hand range.

The split point can also be set

via Function 4 (page 38).

[VARIATION] in Split Mode

You can turn the variation on or

off for Split mode voices. Nor-

mally, the voice indicator of the

right voice lights in Split mode.

The [VARIATION] can be used

to turn the variation for the right

voice on or off as required.

While the [SPLIT] button is

held, however, the voice indica-

tor of the left voice lights. In this

state the [VARIATION] button

turns the variation for the left

voice on or off.

[REVERB] in Split Mode

The reverb type assigned to the

right voice will take priority over

the other. (If the reverb is set to

OFF, the left voice’s reverb type

will be in effect.) Reverb depth

setting via the panel controls

(i.e. pressing the [–/NO] or [+/

YES] buttons while holding the

[REVERB] button — see

page 20) will be applied to the

right voice only.
