Chapter 6 Using the Lower Keyboard Effectively
Using the Lower Keyboard to Play the
Bass Voice ([To Lower] Button)
By using the Pedal [To Lower] button, you can sound the Pedal Bass voice
by playing the root note (see p. 212) of a chord on the Lower keyboard in the
area that is playing the Lower voice.
fig.06-18
1. Select a Pedal Bass voice (p. 38).
2. Press the Pedal [To Lower] button (indicator lights).
When you play a chord in the area of the Lower keyboard that sounds the
Lower voice, the Pedal Bass voice will also be heard and will play the root
note.
If the “Leading Bass” function is on (p. 64), the lowest note played in the
lower keyboard will sound the pedal bass voice.
NOTE
If no portion of the Lower
keyboard is sounding the
Lower voice (the [Drums/
SFX] button is ON), the
Pedal Bass voice will not
sound.
