Step 1
Press the E.PIANO button.
The LED indicator for the E.PIANO button will turn on.
The variation number ‘1’ will be shown in the LED display,
indicating that the Classic E.Piano sound has been selected.
Several sounds are assigned to each SOUND SELECTION button. Press the same SOUND SELECTION
button multiple times to cycle through each sound variation.
Step 2
Play the piano.
The sound of Classic E.Piano will be heard as the keys are
pressed.
Use the VOLUME slider to adjust the volume, if necessary.
The EP3 digital piano is capable of playing up to 96 notes simultaneously (96 note polyphony). However, when playing
in DUAL mode, or when playing a stereo piano sound, the polyphony will be reduced by half due to the number of
sounds being produced for each note.
