Playing the Piano
Four Hands Mode
The Four Hands Mode function divides the keyboard into two sections in a similar way to that of the Split Mode
function. However, the octave/pitch of each section is also adjusted, while the sustain (right) pedal and soft
(left) pedal act as separate sustain pedals for the upper and lower sections respectively.
With Four Hands Mode enabled, the CA93/CA63 digital piano can be used as two separate 44-key instruments,
allowing two people to perform piano duets within the same key range using the same instrument.
Entering four hands mode
Press and hold the SPLIT button, then press the sustain (right)
and soft (left) pedals simultaneously.
The LED indicator for the SPLIT button will start to ash to
indicate that four hands mode has been enabled.
The name of the upper section and lower section sounds
will also be shown in the LCD display, with a slash symbol (/)
indicating that four hands mode is in use.
* The ‘Concert Grand’ sound will be selected automatically for both sections.
