WHAT IS A “ PART”?
Each “PART” is equivalent to a player in a band or an orchestra. e 3 Parts here are
expressed in Organ terms: UPPER. LOWER, and PEDAL. ese parts can be individu-
ally played with di erent sounds.
e SKX has 2 keyboards. All parts are available simultaneously, by expanding the MIDI
Pedalboard.
MANUAL BASS

LOWER keyboard.
[MANUAL BASS] button
To use the Manual Bass function, press the [MANUAL BASS]
button and the light will go ON. e PEDAL/Bass sound is heard
in conjunction with the lowest note being played, on the manual
keyboard till that time.
In order to interface with the melody performance, the default
Manual Bass upper limit point is set to sound up to, and including
middle “B”.
NOTE: The Manual Bass can be set to play in Lowest, Polyphonic, and
Chord (P. 110). You can change the playing range of the Manual Bass
(the upper limit) (P. 110).
e part obtained when the Manual Bass is selected is called PED-
AL part and its sound is controlled by the Drawbars ([PEDAL]
when selected in Drawbar Select). is is originated from the style
of playing bass on the pedal keyboard of a 3 keyboard type organ.
You can use both the manual bass and the split at the same time.
is makes it possible to play the bass + chord + melody only by
yourself.
NOTE: You can triggering the Manual Bass by foot switch (P. 76).
