Play the keyboard to hear the combination you selected.
While playing the keyboard, use the joystick, and realtime controllers to modify the sound.
The result will differ depending on the combination, so play the keyboard while operating
these controllers to hear what they do. You can use the OCTAVE [

the pitch in steps of one octave.
Note:
You can’t use the [AUDITION] button to play a riff (phrase) in Combination mode.
Selecting combinations by category

procedure, see “Using the [CATEGORY] and PROGRAM/COMBINATION buttons to select a
