2.2 DUAL
Another feature of the CE200 piano is the ability to layer two preset sounds
together to create a more complex sound. For example, piano layered
with strings, electric piano with choir sound, and so on.
To layer two sounds, select the first sound and then, while holding
down that SOUND SELECT button, select the second sound by
pressing another SOUND SELECT button. The LED indicators for
each will be turned on to indicate the two sounds you have chosen. The
display briefly shows the combination of the selected sound variation
numbers.
If you want to layer two sounds assigned to the same SOUND SELECT
button, while pressing the desired SOUND SELECT button use the VALUE
buttons to select your desired layered sound.
ABOUT POLYPHONY
The CE200 piano is capable of playing up to 96 notes simultaneously (96-
note polyphony). When playing in dual mode, or when playing the stereo
piano sound, the polyphony will be reduced by half since the piano has to
produce two sounds for each note.
