Description
This determines the volume of the Split voice, letting
you create an optimum mix with the Main voice.
This determines the octave range for the Split voice.
Use this to set the most suitable range for the Split
(lower) voice.
This determines the pan position of the Split voice in
the stereo image. For a spacious sounding effect, set
this value at or near -7, and set the Main Voice Pan
(page 31) at the opposite positive value.
This determines how much of the Split voice’s signal is
sent to the Reverb effect. (See page 40.) Higher values
result in a louder Reverb effect for the Split voice.
This determines how much of the Split voice’s signal is
sent to the Chorus effect. (See page 41.) Higher values
result in a louder Chorus effect for the Split voice.
This determines how much of the Split voice’s signal is
sent to the DSP effect. (See page 42.) Higher values
result in a louder DSP effect for the Split voice.
This determines the Split voice. (See list on page 109.)
This turns the Split Voice mode on/off. This can also be
controlled by a connected footswitch. (See page 91.)
This determines the highest key for the Split voice and
sets the Split “point” — in other words, the key that
separates the Split (lower) and Main (upper) voices.
(The Split voice sounds up to and including the Split
Point key.) The default Split Point is 059 (B2). The
value can also be set directly by pressing the desired
key while this parameter is selected. While this is being
set, the keyboard does not produce any sound. After
setting this, make sure to select a different parameter
or exit the Function mode before playing the keyboard.
The Split Point setting is related to and affected by the
Accompaniment Split Point setting. (See page 58.)
