Adding articulation eects by the [ART. 1]–[ART. 3] buttons
When you select a Super Articulation Voice, the [ART. 1]/[ART. 2]/[ART. 3] buttons may light in blue. Pressing a lit button adds the
eect (buttons not lit have no eect).
Below are three examples of Super Articulation Eects by the buttons.
 Example 1
Pressing the available [ART] button triggers dierent playing eects and techniques, separate from your keyboard playing.
For example, pressing the [ART] button for a S.Art saxophone Voice can produce breath noise or key noise, while doing the same
for a S.Art guitar Voice can produce fret noise or body-tapping sound. You can eectively intersperse these into the notes as you
play.
While the articulation eect sounds, the button lights in red.
 Example 2
Playing the keyboard while holding down the available [ART] button changes the nature of the Voice.
For example, in the case of the NylonGuitar SW Voice in A.GUITAR category, holding down the [ART. 1] button lets you play
harmonics for the guitar Voice. Releasing the button returns the Voice to normal.
The button lights in red while it is being held down.
 Example 3
When an S.Art2 Voice is selected, pressing the available [ART] button and playing/releasing a note enables you to add articulation
eects, such as bend up/down, glissando up/down, brass fall, etc.
When you press the available [ART] button, it will ash in red until the eect is nished playing. You can cancel by pressing the
button again while it ashes. Immediately after you press/release the note and articulation eect sounds, the button lights in red.
