Entering Partner Mode
With the C1/C1 Air turned o, hold down the BANK but-
ton, and then press the Power buon. When a dot appears
in the lower-right corner of the display, release the BANK
buon.
WhentheC1/C1AirisinPartnerMode,adotappearsinthe
lower-rightcornerofthedisplay.
ThePIANO1soundisusedforboththeleftandrightsides
ofthekeyboard.
The right sideof the keyboard, from E4 to C8, produces
soundstwooctaveslowerinpitch(E2–C6).

Changing the sound for both sides
Pressasoundbuon.Bothsideswillchangetothesame
sound.
Selecting sounds for the left and right sides
Simultaneouslypressthetwosoundbuonsforthesounds
tobeused.Thetwopressedsoundbuonslightup.
Sound for left side of keyboard
Sound for right side of keyboard
Theleftmostoruppermostselectedsoundbuonisfor
theleftsideofthekeyboard,andtheother(rightmost
orlowermost)oneisfortherightsideofthekeyboard.
Forexample,ifthesoundfromtheE.PIAN1buonisto

theE.PIAN1buon,andthenpresstheORGAN1buon.
Previously,eachSoundBuonshouldhavebeenused
intheSingleModetoselectthecorrectsound.
Damper Pedal Assignments
In thePartnerMode, the Softpedal acts as a damper
pedal for the left side of the keyboard; the Damper
pedalactsasthedamperpedalfortherightsideofthe
keyboard.
TheSostenutopedalhasnofunctioninPartnerMode.
The volume balance of the sounds for the left and right
sides can be adjusted with “Volume balance for Layer Mode
(or Partner Mode)” in “Function Mode” on page 12.
Exiting Partner Mode
Turn o the C1/C1 Air to exit Partner Mode.
When only the Power buon is pressed to turn on the C1/
C1 Air, it will be in the normal mode (Single Mode).
 InPartnerMode,ademosongcannotbeplayedback
andausersongcannotberecordedorplayedback.In

Performance Modes
Playing two sounds at the same time (Layer
Mode)
Youcanplaytwosoundsatthesametimeonthekeyboard.
ThisiscalledtheLayerMode.
1. While holding down the buon of a sound to be lay-
ered, press another sound buon.
Thetwoselectedsoundbuonslightup.
Inordertousesoundsindierentbanks,rstselectthe
banksintheSinglemodeforthesoundbuonstobe
pressed.
For example, to play by layering the German Grand
PianoandJazzOrgan2sounds,selectbank1(German
GrandPiano)forthePIANO1buonandbank2(Jazz
Organ2)fortheORGAN1buon,andthenpressboth
buonssimultaneously.
To adjust the volume balance of the two sounds, press
the FUNCTION buon, then the HARPSI/CLAV but-
ton, and then press the + or – buon to adjust the set-
ting. After selecting the seing, press the FUNCTION
buon again.
(Referto“LayerModeseings”belowand “Function
Mode”onpage12.)
2. To return to Single Mode, press any single Sound But-
ton.
 WhenselectingLayerMode,thetotalnumberofvoices
thatcanplayatthesametimeisreduced,depending
onthetotalnumberofoscillatorsusedpervoicebythe
selectedsounds.(referto“Aboutmaximumpolypho-
ny”onpage16.)
 SoundsaccessedbythesameSoundBuoncannotbe
layered.For example, GermanGrandPiano and Jazz
Piano are both accessed via the PIANO1 buon and
thuscannotbelayered.
Layer Mode settings
InLayerMode,thevolumebalancebetweensoundscanbe
adjusted,theoctaveforeachsoundcanbeshifted,andthe
damperpedalcanbeenabledordisabledforeachsound.
(referto“FunctionMode”onpage12.)
The leftmost or uppermost selected sound buon is
layer1,andtheother(rightmostorlowermost)oneis
layer2(seethediagramatthebelow).

Performing with another person
(Partner mode)
Twopeoplecanplayinthesamerangewiththekeyboarddi-
videdinhalfbetweenthem.ThisiscalledthePartnermode.
