Simple combination editing
You can start with one of the preloaded combinations
and modify it to your own liking, or create a combina-
tion “from scratch.”
Up to eight Timbres can be assigned to a combination to
create a complex sound. A timbre consists of a program
together with various parameters to control that pro-
gram.
You can create keyboard splits or layers in which differ-
ent programs will sound when you play different areas
of the keyboard or vary your playing strength.
Here’s how to change the programs that are assigned to
a preloaded combination, and how to adjust the pan and
volume settings.
Changing the program assigned to a timbre
In this example we’ll select the combination K032: Shiny
DigiPiano and do some simple editing.
1
Press the [COMBI] key (it will light).
You’re in Combination mode. Make sure that the
Combination P0: Play, Program Select page is dis-
played.
If a different page is displayed, press the [EXIT] key
and then the Prog. Select tab.
2
Select K032: Shiny DigiPiano.
This combination layers (simultaneously sounds)
the programs of timbre 1 and timbre 2. A typical
electric piano M017: Pro-Stage EP is assigned to
Timbre 1, and a digital-type electric piano M049:
Classic Tines is assigned to Timbre 2. These two
programs are layered to create a frequently-heard
type of electric piano sound.
3
Specify the “Status.”
When a timbre’s “Status” is turned Off, the pro-
gram assigned to that timbre will not sound. If the
“Status” is set to INT, the program will sound. Try
setting timbres 1 and 2 alternately to INT and Off,
and listen to the result.
After you have listened to the sound, set the “Sta-
tus” for timbres 1 and 2 to INT.
As an alternative to changing the “Status” setting,
you can select the page menu command “Solo
Selected Timbre” to hear the sound of an individual
timbre.

Press the Timbre 2 category popup button, and
select a program from the menu.
In this combination, both timbre 1 and timbre 2 use
programs from the “Keyboard” category. In the
menu that appears, try choosing different programs
for timbre 2 and listening to the results.
As an alternative way to select a program, you can
press “Bank/Program (Program Select)” to highlight it,
and use the [ ][ ] keys, the [VALUE] slider, or
numeric keys [0]–[9]. Use the BANK [A]–[N] keys to
switch banks. You can also press the popup buttons
located beside the program numbers and choose from
the bank select menu.
