Keyboard split tones Some of the preset tones split the keyboard and assign two or more sounds. With such a preset tone, the sound produced depends on what position of the keyboard you play.

Digital Sampling A number of the tones that are available with this keyboard have been recorded and processed using a technique called digital sampling. To ensure a high level of total quality, samples are taken in the low, mid, and high ranges and then combined to provide you with sounds that are amazingly close to the originals. You may notice very slight differences in volume or sound quality for some tones when you play them at different positions on the keyboard. This is an unavoidable result of multiple sampling, and it is not a sign of malfunction. Polyphony The term polyphony refers to the maximum number of notes you can play at the same time. This keyboard has 12-note polyphony, which includes the notes you play as well as the rhythms and auto-accompaniment patterns that are played by the keyboard. This means that when a rhythm or auto-accompaniment pattern is being played by the keyboard, the number of notes (polyphony) available for keyboard play is reduced. Also note that some of the tones offer only 6-note polyphony. · When rhythm or auto accompaniment is playing, the number of sounds simultaneously played is reduced. · Though you can sound up to 12 notes at one time, only the last four keyboard keys pressed light up. I Other Useful Functions To change the key of the keyboard The transpose feature of this keyboard lets you raise or lower its key in semitone increments. This means you can easily match to suit someone's voice, and you can eliminate sharps and flats from music making it easier to play. 1.
