Turning on either Layer Performance or Split Performance allows you to divide the
keyboard into a upper and a lower part and play with two Tones layered in the
upper part.

Shifting the Keyboard Pitch in Octave Steps
(Octave Shift)
When using Layer performance (p. 25) or Split performance (p. 26), you can change
the pitch of the keyboards sound in octave units. This function is called Octave
Shift.
For example, when using a Layer performance, you can change the pitch of either.
You can make the pitch of the keyboards Lower part match the pitch of the Upper
part during split performance.
1. On the Basic screen, touch <Layer> or <Split>.
The KR105 switches to Layer performance or Split performance.
2. To apply Octave Shift, touch the name of the tone you’ve selected.
3. Press the Tone button to display the Tone selection screen.

4. Touch Octave <–> or <+> in the lower part of the screen to adjust the
pitch of the sound.
Each time you touch <+>, the pitch is raised one octave.
Each time you touch <>, the pitch is lowered one octave.
The sound can be changed from two octaves lower than the original sound (2) to
two octaves above the original (+2).
Touch <Exit> to return to the Basic screen or the previous screen.
When the keyboard has been
divided into Upper and Lower
sections, the damper pedal
only affects the Upper section.
If you want to sustain the notes
of the Lower section, see
Assigning Functions to
Pedals and Performance Pads
(Pedal Setting/User
Functions) (p. 126).
