Yamaha Portatone PSR-225 Owner's Manual - Turn On The Dual Voice Mode.

34

The Dual Voice mode lets you create richly textured sounds by “layering”

two different voices together — one voice being the Main voice selected in

the normal way (page 27), and the other a Dual voice selected as described

below.

1

Turn on the Dual Voice mode.

Press the DUAL button.

When you play the keyboard, both the currently selected Main and Dual

voices will be heard.

2

Select the desired Dual voice and make other set-

tings for the voice (if desired) in the Function mode.

To do this, first call up the Function mode by pressing the FUNCTION

button.

• Since the “FUNCTION”

indication flashes for only a

couple of seconds, make

sure to select the parameter

quickly after step 2 above.

• For the Dual voice to be

heard properly, make sure

to:

* Select a different voice

(#17, Dual Voice).

* Set the volume to an

appropriate level (#11, Dual

Volume).
