Turning On Layer and Split Performance Simultaneously
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 lower
part, and three Tones layered in the upper part.

Shifting the Keyboard Pitch in Octave Steps
(Octave Shift)
When using layer performance (p. 31) or split performance (p. 32), you can change
the pitch of the keyboard’s sound in octave units. This function is called “Octave
Shift.”
For example, when playing a Layer performance, if you change the pitch of one of
the tones and then layer it, it changes the impression created with the tone.
1.
On the Basic screen, touch <Layer1> or <Split>.
The KR 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).
Press the [Exit] button to return to the Basic screen or the previous screen.
When the keyboard has been
divided into upper and lower
sections, the damper pedal is
applied to only the upper
section. If you want to add
lingering reverberations to the
notes of the lower section, see
“Assigning Functions to
Pedals and Performance Pads
(Pedal Setting/User
Functions)” (p. 167).
