Split
Split mode enables you to split the 88 keys into two zones so that you can play two different
voices for each of your hands. For example, you may want the Piano voice for your right hand,
and the Bass voice for your left-hand. When Split mode is enabled, the left-hand voice is
referred to as the Lower voice. To turn the Split mode on or off, press the Split button.
To set the split point:
1. Press the Function Menu button repeatedly to cycle through to the Keyboard Split
setting.
2. Press the -/+ buttons or a piano key to set the keyboard split point.
Tip: Press the -/+ buttons at the same time to reset the split point to the default value, F#3.
If Split mode is enabled, you can repeatedly press the Voice button to switch between the
upper and lower voice and select different voices.
Note: If you are using the Layer mode and Split mode at the same time, only the upper region
will use the Layer Voice function.
