Using an Advanced Tone
100 of the preset tones are Advanced Tones, which are vari-
ations of standard tones created by programming in effects
(DSP) and other settings. For example, PIANO is modified
into STEREO PIANO, ORGAN becomes ROTARY SPEAK-
ER ORGAN, and so on.
To select an Advanced Tone
1. Press the ADVANCED TONE button.
This causes AD to appear on the display, and caus-
es the currently selected tone to change to its Ad-
vanced Tone version.
•“AD TONE stands for ADVANCED TONE.
2. Press the TONE button.
This causes AD to disappear from the display, and
returns to the tone to its standard preset.
NOTE
Preset tone numbers 000 to 099 have Advanced Tone versions.
Anytime AD is on the display indicating that an Advanced Tone
is selected, you can use [+] and [] to scroll the tone number
on the display.
If any tone number outside the range of 000 to 099 is selected
when you press the ADVANCED TONE button, the tone auto-
matically changes to the Advanced Tone version of tone number
00.
Only one of the channels (1 to 16) can have an Advanced Tone
assigned to it at one time. Assigning an Advanced Tone to an-
other channel causes the currently assigned channel to change
automatically to its standard (non-Advanced) version.

Polyphony
The term polyphony refers to the maximum number of notes
you can play at the same time. The keyboard has 32-note po-
lyphony, which includes the notes you play as well as the
rhythms and auto-accompaniment patterns that are played
by the keyboard. This means that when a rhythm or auto-
accompaniment pattern is being played by the keyboard, the
number of notes (polyphony) available for keyboard play is
reduced. Also note that some of the tones offer only 16-note
polyphony.
Digital Sampling
A number of the tones that are available with this keyboard
have been recorded and processed using a technique called
digital sampling. To ensure a high level of tonal quality, sam-
ples are taken in the low, mid, and high ranges and then com-
bined to provide you with sounds that are amazingly close to
the originals. You may notice very slight differences in vol-
ume or sound quality for some tones when you play them at
different positions on the keyboard. This is an unavoidable
result of multiple sampling, and it is not a sign of malfunction.
