For instance, it’s possible to play the Tones for both Piano and Strings simultaneously.

The tone that was sounding before you switched to layer performance, plus the tone
indicated in the lower part of the display, are now played together.
Here, the tone appearing in the upper part of the display is called the “right-hand

tone.”
