Chapter 6 Using the Lower Keyboard Effectively
Playing the Solo Voice on the Lower
Keyboard (Solo [To Lower] Button)
Normally, the solo voice will sound on the upper keyboard.
By using the Solo [To Lower] button, you can play the solo voice in the right-
hand side of the lower keyboard that includes the B4 key. The state in which
the keyboard is divided in this way is called “split,” and the location at
which the keyboard is divided to play the solo voice in the lower keyboard
is called the “Solo Split Point.”
