The Split Function
Pressing the Split Function button while in Setup mode will perform the Split Function.
When you create a Split in a Setup, you are in fact activating a Zone within the current Setup.
If the current Setup already has its maximum of four active Zones and you press the Split
Function button, then a message will appear on the display indicating that you have reached
the maximum of four active Zones. The Split Function is convenient, as you do not need to
go through Edit Setup Mode to delineate Zones, assign Programs, etc. You can simply hit
the Split Function button, and the SPS4 automatically activates another Zone in the Setup
for you, with default values for parameters of the Split.
The newly-activated Zone is the “Secondary Voice”. The currently active Zone(s) constitute
the “Primary Voice”.
There are four parameters (described below) that determine the behavior of the Split. You
can view these parameters by scrolling through them using the Chan / Param buttons.
To edit them, use the Value buttons or the secondary alphanumeric entry functions of the
Object select buttons.
Split Program
This parameter determines the Program for the Secondary Voice. Any of the Programs can
be chosen for this parameter.
Split Volume
This parameter determines the relative volumes of the Secondary and Primary Voices—it
can be set to any number between -127 and 127. By default, the Split Volume is set to 0,
which results in both Voices having the same volume. When set to a positive number, the
volume for the Secondary Voice is increased while the volume for the Primary Voice is
decreased—doing the opposite has the opposite effect on the relative volumes of the Voices.
