volume of Digital Piano output.
1.
While holding down the
bs
(FUNCTION)
button, press the
8
(METRONOME) button.
This displays the metronome volume screen.
2.
Use the
bt
(w, q) buttons to adjust the
metronome volume.
3.
Press the
bs
(FUNCTION) button.
This will exit the metronome volume screen and cause
the FUNCTION lamp to go out.
NOTE
You also can use the procedure under “Metronome
Volume” (page E-41) to adjust the metronome
volume.
You can use the pitch bend wheel to slide the pitch of
notes smoothly upwards and downwards. This
capability makes it possible to reproduce saxophone
and electric guitar choking effects.
Adding a Pitch Bend Effect
1.
While playing a note on the
keyboard, rotate the pitch bend
wheel on the left of the keyboard
upwards or downwards.
The amount the note bends depends on
how much you rotate the pitch bend
wheel.
Do not have the pitch bend wheel
rotated as you turn on the Digital Piano.
NOTE
You also can configure pitch bend wheel operation
by specifying the amount of pitch change at
maximum rotation in either direction. See “Pitch
Bend Range” (page E-43) for more information.
You can use the Duet Mode to split the Digital Piano’s
keyboard in the center so two people can play a duet.
This makes it possible to configure the keyboard so, for
example, the teacher can play on the left and the
student can follow along on the right. Or one person
can play the left hand part on the left, while another
plays the right hand part on the right.
