Casio LK-50 Settings Guide

E-32
This section describes how to use layer (to play two tones with a sin-
gle key) and split (to assign different tones to either end of the key-
board), and how to make touch response, transpose, and tuning set-
tings.
Using Layer
Layer lets you assign two different tones (a main tone and a layered
tone) to the keyboard, both of which play whenever you press a key.
For example, you could layer the FRENCH HORN tone on the BRASS
tone to produce a rich and brassy sound.
To layer tones
1. First select the main tone.
Example: To select “061 BRASS” as the main tone, press the
TONE button and then use the number buttons or [+]
and [–] buttons to input 0, 6 and then 1.
2. Press the LAYER button.
3. Select the layered tone.
Example: To select “060 FRENCH HORN” as the layered tone,
use the number buttons or [+] and [–] buttons to in-
put 0, 6 and then 0.
Keyboard Settings
4. Now try playing something on the keyboard.
• Both tones are played at the same time.
5. Press the LAYER button again to unlayer the tones and
return the keyboard to normal.

Using Split
With split you can assign two different tones (a main tone and a split
tone) to either end of the keyboard, which lets you play one tone
with your left hand and another tone with your right hand. For ex-
ample, you could select STRINGS as the main (high range) tone and
PIZZICATO as the split (low range) tone, putting an entire string en-
semble at your fingertips.
Split also lets you specify the split point, which is the location on the
keyboard where the changeover between the two tones occurs.
To split the keyboard
1. First select the main tone.
Example: To select “048 STRINGS 1” as the main tone, press the
TONE button and then use the number buttons or [+]
and [–] buttons to input 0, 4 and then 8.
