| Using unison to create thick, spacious sounds
This feature stacks and plays the same note together multiple times, creating a thick and spacious
sound.
Tip: This is applied only to the MAIN part program by default.
1 Press the UNISON section ON/OFF button to turn it ON (the button lights up).
2 Move the slider to adjust the number of notes stacked together and the spaciousness of the
sound.
Moving the slider to the right increases the number of notes played in unison, giving a thicker and
more spacious sound.
Tip: To enable the unison effect for the LAYER and SPLIT parts as well, set the “Use Unison” program parameter
for each part to “On”.
→ Use Unison: On/Off
