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
person watches and practices while sitting at the first person’s side.
1
Press a [FUNCTION] button several
times until “DuoMode” (Function 051;
page 63) appears on the display.
2
Use the [+/YES] button to select “on.”
The F#3 key becomes the Duo Split Point and the
keyboard is divided into two sections: one for the
left Voice and one for the right Voice.
3
One person can play the left Voice sec-
tion of the keyboard while the other
plays the right Voice section.
4
To exit from Duo mode, select “oFF” via
“DuoMode” (Function 051; page 63) by
executing steps 1.
Changing the Left Voice
Only the left Voice can be changed via “DuoLVc”
(Function 052; page 63).
How sounds are output in the Duo mode
The performance sound of the left Voice will
sound from the left speaker, and the performance
sound of the right Voice will sound from the right
speaker, in the initial Duo mode setting (“Sepa-
rate”). This output setting can be changed from
the “DuoType” setting (Function 058; page 63).
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 footswitch (page 16) connected to the
[SUSTAIN] jack.
• Set “Sustain” (Function 024; page 61) to on.
Sustain is applied to all notes.
• The right Voice section and the left Voice section of the
keyboard are both set to the same Voice (Main Voice).
• The Duo Split Point can be changed via Function number
053 (page 63).

NOTE
• When playing different Voices between the left and right,
the right Voice name is shown in the display.
• Certain functions such as Lesson, Harmony/Arpeggio
and Dual cannot be used in the Duo mode.
• In the Duo mode, the pan, volume and tonal characteris-
tics of the stereo sound may differ from those in the nor-
mal mode, due to the setting of DuoType = “Separate”
(page 63). Particularly with Drum Kits, the difference may
be more obvious, since each key of a Drum Kit features a
different stereo pan position.
• Sustain cannot be applied independently to the left Voice
section and the right Voice section.
• While Sustain is set to on via Function 024, the setting of
hold is maintained even when the power is turned off.
