Playing with Different Tones
NOTE
• Of the digital piano’s 18 built-in tones, the first five
are grand piano tone. Each tone has its own
distinctive merits, so you should select the tone that
suits the song you are playing along with or your
own personal preferences. The CONCERT and
MODERN tones are assigned to buttons for quick
and easy selection.
* Feature that applies computer morphing
technology to enable seamless changes between
sounds sampled at various dynamics from a full
concert grand piano.
Bass Tone (BASS)
Selecting the BASS (LOWER) tone in step 1 of the
above procedure will assign the bass tone to the low
range (left side) of the keyboard. The high range (right
side) will be assigned the tone that was selected when
you pressed the BASS key.
• BASS tone lets you effectively split the keyboard
between two different tones.
NOTE
• To return the keyboard to a single tone, select any
tone other than BASS.
• You cannot select BASS when recording to Track 2.
• You can configure settings to sustain reverberation
of the BASS (LOWER) tone while the damper pedal
or sostenuto pedal is pressed. For more information,
see “Bass damper effect” (page EN-30).
