Playing the keyboard with two persons (Duo mode)

When the Duo mode is activated on this instrument, two different players can play the

instrument simultaneously, with the same sound, over the same octave range—one per-

son on the left and the other on the right. This is useful for learning applications, in

which one person (a teacher, for example) plays a model performance and the other per-

son watches and practices while sitting at the first person’s side.

To start this instrument in the Duo

mode, simultaneously hold down the [L]

button and press the [ ] (Standby/On)

switch to turn on the power.

“DuoMode” is shown in the display for a few sec-

onds, and the F#3 key becomes the Split Point

and the keyboard is divided into two sections:

one for the left Voice and one for the right Voice.

One person should play the left Voice

section of the keyboard while the other

plays the right Voice section.

Selecting a Voice

Select a Voice by executing Steps 1 and 2 in

“Selecting a Main Voice” on page 16.

How sounds are output in the Duo mode

Notes played in the left Voice section sound from

the left side speaker while notes played in the

right Voice section sound from the right side

speaker, in the initial Duo mode setting. This out-

put setting can be changed from the “VoiceOut”

setting (Function 027; page 41).

Using sustain in the Duo mode

Sustain can be applied to the left and right Voice

sections in Duo mode just as it normally is by

using one of the following methods in the Duo

mode like the usual mode.

• Press the foot switch (page 13) connected to the

[SUSTAIN] jack.

• Set “Sustain” (Function 023; page 41) to on.

Style Playback in the Duo mode

Although full Style features (accompaniment)

cannot be used in the Duo mode, the rhythm part

of a Style can be played back while playing the

left/right Voices normally.

Recording in the Duo mode

The right Voice section and the left Voice section

are recorded on the same track.

To exit from the Duo mode, press the

[ ] (Standby/On) switch to turn off the

power, and turn the power back on again

normally.

• The right Voice section and the left Voice section of the

keyboard are both set to the same Voice (Main Voice).

• In the Duo mode, the Split Point cannot be changed

from F

• When a Dual Voice is selected from Voice numbers 162

to 188, the left Voice section sounds only the Main Voice.

• Certain functions such as Lesson, Harmony/Arpeggio

and Dual cannot be used in the Duo mode.

Right Voice

NOTE

• In the Duo mode, the pan, volume and tonal characteris-

tics of the strereo sound may differ from those in the nor-

mal mode, due to the setting of VoiceOut = “Separate”

(page 41). Particularly with Drum Kits, the difference

may be more obvious, since each key of a Drum Kit fea-

tures a different stereo pan position.

• Sustain cannot be applied independently to the left

Voice section and the right Voice section.

• While Panel Sustain is on, the setting of hold is main-

tained even when the power is turned off.
