Playing the PSR-620
Keyboard Percussion
When one of the eight PERCUSSION KIT voices are selected — voice
numbers 142 through 149 — you can play drums and percussion instru-
ments on the keyboard. The drums and percussion instruments played by the
various keys are marked by symbols below the keys.
The Harmony/Echo and Dual
functions (pages 20 and 17)
cannot be turned ON while a
keyboard percussion voice is
selected, and will automatically
be turned OFF if a keyboard
percussion voice is selected
while they are ON.
The TRANSPOSE parameter
(page 23) has no effect on the
keyboard percussion voices.
See page 98 for a complete
listing of the keyboard percus-
sion drum instrument assign-
ments.
