Playing Various Musical Instrument Sounds (Voices)

YDP-S52 Owner’s Manual

You can layer two Voices and play them simultaneously to create a more richly textured sound.

1. Engage the Dual mode.

While holding down [PIANO/VOICE], simultaneously hold down two keys

between C1 and A1 to select the two desired Voices. For information on which

Voices are assigned to the keys, refer to “Voice List” (page 18).

The Voice assigned to the lower key will be designated as Voice 1, and the Voice

assigned to the higher key will be designated as Voice 2. You cannot assign the same

Voice to both Voice 1 and Voice 2 simultaneously in Dual mode.

To shift the Octave for each Voice:

While holding down [PIANO/VOICE], press one of the C5 – F5 keys.

To adjust the Balance between two Voices:

While holding down [PIANO/VOICE], press one of the F♯ 5 – F♯ 6 keys. A setting

of “0” (C6) produces an equal balance between two Voices. Settings below “0”

increase the volume of Voice 2, while settings above “0” increase the volume of

Voice 1, in relation to the other.

2. To exit from Dual mode, press [PIANO/VOICE].
