Left — Setting Separate Voices for the Left and Right Sections of the Keyboard
This section of the panel lets you add a variety of effects to the voices you play on the keyboard.
■ TOUCH
This button turns the touch response of the keyboard on or off. When this is set to off, the same volume is produced no
matter how strongly or softly you play the keyboard.
■ SUSTAIN
When this Sustain feature is on, all notes played on the keyboard (MAIN/LAYER parts only) have a longer sustain. You
can also set the Sustain depth (page 82).
■ DSP
The PSR-A1000 features a variety of dynamic built-in digital effects, letting you process
the sound in various ways. You can use DSP to enhance the voices in subtle ways — such
as by applying chorus to add animation and depth, or using a symphonic effect to give
the sound warmth and richness. DSP also has effects such as distortion that can
completely change the character of the sound. DSP is set for the currently selected part
(MAIN/LAYER/LEFT).

voices on the right.
