Key Hold
The Key Hold function can be used to hold a speci-
fied note while playing other notes, thus allowing more
than one note to be played at the same time. You actually
have a choice of four different Key Hold functions - Nor-
mal Hold, Follow Hold, Sustain, and Portamento - se-
lected by holding the Key Hold button and pressing one
of the Octave keys.
• When using a monophonic tone generator such as the
VL70-m, the Normal Hold and Follow Hold functions
cannot be used.
■ Normal Hold
Select the Normal Hold mode by pressing the [Down 1]
Octave key while holding the Key Hold button.
Normal Hold allows a specified note to be held while other
notes are played.
Applying Normal Hold
1
Play a note on the WX5.
2
While playing the note, rapidly press and release the
Key Hold button. The note will be held.
3
Any subsequently played notes will sound simulta-
neously with the held note.
Changing the Held Note
1
Play a different note than the held note.
2
While playing the new note, rapidly press and release
the Key Hold button. The note will be held in place of
the previous held note.
3
Any subsequently played notes will sound simulta-
neously with the held note.
