Using the Modulation Wheel
The Modulation function applies a vibrato effect to notes played on the keyboard. This is applied to all the keyboard
parts (RIGHT 1, 2 and LEFT). Moving the MODULATION wheel down (towards MIN) decreases the depth of the effect,
while moving it up (towards MAX) increases it.
n • To avoid accidently applying modulation, make sure the MODULATION Wheel is set at MIN before you start playing.
• The MODULATION Wheel can be set to control a different parameter other than vibrato (page 96).
n The effects caused by using the MODULATION wheel will not be applied to the LEFT part when the Chord Fingering type is set to
the one other than “FULL KEYBOARD” or “AI FULL KEYBOARD” with the [ACMP] and PART ON/OFF [LEFT] turned on.
Using the Metronome
The metronome provides a click sound, giving you an accurate tempo guide when you practice, or letting you hear and
check how a specific tempo sounds.
