Playing programs and combinations
By default, Combination mode will be selected when you turn on the power.
Play the keyboard, and you will hear the sound of bank A combination number 000.
A combination consists of up to eight programs that are split, zoned, layered or velocity-
switched across the keyboard. A combination can also use up to two Arpeggiators simulta-
neously (a program can use only one Arpeggiator), letting you produce far more complex
sounds than a single program.
Although you could simply continue selecting and playing different combinations, let’s start by
selecting and listening to the “basic” sounds of the X50 – programs.
Note:
If you don’t hear any sound when you play the keyboard: Check the connections once
again. Also make sure that the X50’s VOLUME and the volume of your powered speakers or
stereo amp are turned up appropriately.
