The Dual Mode
The dual mode makes it possible to play two voices simultaneously across
the entire range of the keyboard.
To activate the dual mode simply press two voice selectors at the
same time (or press one voice selector while holding another). The
voice indicators of both selected voices will light when the dual mode is
active. To return to the normal single-voice play mode, press any single
voice selector.
According to the voice numbering priority as shown in the diagram
on the left, lower valued voice numbers will be designated as the 1st
Voice (the other voice will be designated as the 2nd Voice).
The [STRINGS] [VARIATION] voice has a slow attack. This
voice can sometimes be used with another voice in the Dual Mode to
produce a better “blend”.
NOTE
The [VARIATION] button indicator will light if the variation is engaged for
either or both of the dual-mode voices. While the dual mode is engaged
the [VARIATION] button can be used to turn the variation for both voices
on or off. To use the variation for only one of the voices the setting must
be made prior to engaging the dual mode.
[REVERB] in the Dual Mode
The reverb type assigned to the 1st Voice will take priority over the other.
(If the reverb is set to OFF, the 2nd Voices reverb type will be in affect.)
Reverb depth setting via the panel controls (i.e. pressing the [-/NO] or [+/
YES] buttons while holding the [REVERB] button see page 16) will be
applied to the 1st Voice only.
