* The key (split point) that you choose is included in the left-side key range.
Balance Selects the volume balance between the left-side and right-side tones.

Twin Piano

performance, and the other person can practice along with that model performance. You can also change the way (Mode) in which notes are
sounded in Twin Piano.
* If you select a tone from the “Grand” group, it sounds dierent than usual.
Twin Piano Mode
Pair
(default setting)
Notes played in the right zone are louder in the right speaker; notes played in the left zone are louder in the
left speaker.
Individual
Notes played in the right area are heard only from the right speaker; notes played in the left area are heard
only from the left speaker. When using headphones, you won’t be able to hear the other person’s playing.
Kbd Transpose
The keyboard can be transposed in semitone steps.
When accompanying a vocal, or when performing as a singer-instrumentalist, you can transpose the pitch to match the singer’s pitch range without changing the
ngering of your keyboard playing.
-6–0–+5 (default value: 0)
Key Touch
You can change the playing feel (touch) of the keyboard. The default value of 50 provides a key touch that is closest to that of an acoustic piano. Higher settings make the
keyboard feel heavier. With the “Fix”, notes sound at a xed volume regardless of how strongly you play the keyboard.
Fix, 1–100 (default value: 50)
Hammer
Response
Adjusts the time from when you play the key until the piano sound is heard. Higher values produce a greater delay.
O, 1–10 (default value: 1)
