Voices – Playing the Keyboard –
Example 2
Playing the keyboard while holding down the available [ART] button changes the nature
of Voice. For example, in the case of the NylonGuitar Voice in GUITAR category, holding
down the [ART. 1] button lets you play harmonics for the guitar Voice. Releasing the but-
ton returns the Voice to normal.
The button lights in red while it is being held down.
Example 3
When an SA2 Voice is selected, pressing the available [ART] button and playing/releasing
a note enables you to add articulation effects, such as bend up/down, glissando up/down,
brass fall, etc.
When you press the available [ART] button, it will flash in red until the effect is finished
playing. You can cancel by pressing the button again while it flashes. Just after you press/
release the note and articulation effect sounds, the button lights in red.
Example 3 effects can also be used as the same manner as Example 2. Holding an [ART]
button (the button flashes in red) and playing/releasing a note enables you to add the artic-
ulation effect several times in succession.

Notice for when Super Articulation Voices are selected for multiple parts
When you select SA/SA2 Voices for two or more keyboard parts, using an [ART] button simultaneously affects all
parts on which SA/SA2 Voices are selected.
When a Example 3 effect is assigned to both the Right and Left parts and an [ART] button flashes in red (standby sta-
tus), playing only one part (for example Right part) adds an articulation effect to only the Right part. Since the other
part (Left part) is kept in standby status, the button continues flashing. To cancel the standby status, you need to play
the keyboard in the Left part range. (Pressing the flashing button cannot cancel standby status, because this can cancel
the standby of the Left part but turns the Right part to standby again.)
