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
individually played with diff erent sounds.
e XK-1C has a single keyboard. Plural parts are available simultaneously, by split-
ting the keyboards or expanding them using a MIDI keyboard.
KEYBOARD SPLIT
e XK-1C has only 1 manual, but it can be split and will respond
as if it were a 2 manual instrument.
[SPLIT] button
To use the Split function, press the [SPLIT] button and the light
will go ON. e default setting split is at the middle B/C.
NOTE: You can change the split point (dividing note) and octave. (P. 106)
NOTE: The Split function is disabled when a second MIDI Keyboard is
added. (P. 108)
Right of the split point is referred to as: UPPER and the left side
LOWER. Percussion does not function on the LOWER part.
ere is no SPLIT function available when the keyboard is ex-
tended.
MANUAL BASS
You can play the Pedal voices using the lowest notes of the keyboard
(the LOWER keyboard if keyboard is extended) using MANUAL
BASS.
[M. BASS] button
To use the Manual Bass function, press the [M. BASS] button and
the light will go ON. e Pedal/Bass sound is heard in conjunc-
tion with the lowest note being played, on the manual keyboard
till that time.
In order to not interfere with the melody performance, the de-
fault Manual Bass 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 modes (P. 106 #1). You can change the playing range of the
Manual Bass (the upper limit) (P. 106 #2).
NOTE: When the XK-1C is expanded to 2 manual, the Manual Bass func-
tion appears on the LOWER keyboard. (P. 108)
e Manual Bass plays the PEDAL part and its sound is controlled
by the [PEDAL] Drawbars. 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.
Making it possible to play the bass + chord + melody together.
NOTE: Jazz organists add a distinctive rhythm by “thumping” one or
more pedals in time to their playing. You can simulate this tech-
nique without having a pedalboard by assigning a pedal note to
a foot switch via a CONTROL parameter. See (P. 72).
