The LP-350 will be in Layer mode, and the indicators above the two sound select
buttons will light.
Layering sounds in different banks
1. While still in Single mode, select the bank that you want to use for
each sound.
For example if you want to layer Mellow Piano with Jazz Organ 2, press the
[PIANO 1/L] sound select button and choose bank 3 (Mellow Piano), and then
press the [ORGAN 1] sound select button and choose bank 2 (Jazz Organ 2).
2. Simultaneously press the two sound select buttons for the sounds you
selected in step 1.
The LP-350 will be in Layer mode, and the indicators above the sound select but-
tonses for the sounds you selected will light.
The polyphony is limited by the number of oscillators used by the sounds
you select. ( “About the maximum polyphony” on page 31,)
You can’t simultaneously select two sounds that are accessed by the same
sound select button (e.g., the Grand Piano and the Bright Piano both use
the [PIANO 1/L] sound select button).
3. To return to Single mode, press a sound select button to select a single sound.
Adjusting the volume balance of two layered sounds
Press the two sound select buttons of the layered sounds. Then while holding down
the sound select button of the sound whose volume you want to decrease, repeat-
edly press the sound select button of the sound whose volume you want to increase.
The settings you make in Layer mode will be cleared when you turn off the
power. You can use the Data Dump function to save your Layer mode set-
tings on an external MIDI data filer (“MIDI data dump” on page 29).
Effects (reverb and chorus)
The LP-350 has two built-in effects: reverb and chorus.
Reverb adds ambience and depth to the sound, producing the sense of performing
in a concert hall.
Chorus adds modulation to the sound, adding richness and motion.
The effect settings you specify for each sound are remembered, even when you
switch sounds.
However if you change the effect settings while in Layer mode, and then switch to
Single mode, the settings that had been specified in Single mode will return.
Using reverb will decrease the maximum polyphony by 10 notes, and
using chorus will decrease it by 3 notes ( “About the maximum polyph-
ony” on page 31).
