The Split and Layer Soft Buttons
e soft buttons SPLIT and LAYER perform slightly dierent functions, but oer identical
parameters.
e Split Function allows you to split Programs such that keys in one region of the keyboard
produce dierent sounds than another region. e Layer Function allows you to layer
Programs and Multis such that more than one sound can be produced by striking one key.
is is convenient, because you do not need to use Multi Edit Mode to congure Zone key
ranges, Programs and volumes. Simply hit the soft button while in Program Mode to select
the Function. You can then congure additional Zones, each of which may have its own
Program and controller assignments. e result may be saved as a new Multi (see Ch. 10
Multi Mode for more information on Multis).
The Split Function
When you create a Split in Program Mode, you are in fact creating a Multi with two active
Zones. Multis are congurations of multiple Zones, each of which may have its own Program
and controller assignments.
