NOTE You can also select the voice using the [­/NO] or [+/YES] buttons while holding down the [VOICE] button or when the BGM mode is off. C0 C1 A1 Then, when you start playing, re-adjust the [MASTER VOLUME] control for the most comfortable listening level. NOTE You can control the loudness of a voice by adjusting the force with which you strike the keys, although different playing styles (touch sensitivities) have little or no effect with certain musical instruments. Refer to "Preset Voice List" on page 27. ENGLISH Using the Pedals The instrument has three foot pedals that produce a range of expressive effects similar to those produced by the pedals on an acoustic piano. Damper (Right) Pedal The damper pedal functions in the same way as a damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When you select the Grand Piano 1 voice on the BKS1, pressing the damper pedal activates the instrument's special "Sustain Samples" to accurately recreate the unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano's soundboard and strings. Sostenuto (Center) Pedal If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the sostenuto pedal while the note(s) are held, those notes will sustain as long as you hold the pedal (as if the damper pedal had been pressed) but all subsequently played notes will not be sustained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while other notes are played "staccato. " When you press the damper pedal here, the notes you play before you release the pedal have a longer sustain. TIP Organ and string voices will continue to sound for as long as the sostenuto pedal is depressed. When you press the sostenuto pedal here while holding the note, the note will sustain as long as you hold the pedal. Soft (Left) Pedal The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played while the pedal is pressed. The soft pedal will not affect notes that are already playing when it is pressed. 28 BKS1 Owner's Manual Selecting & Playing Voices Combining Two Voices (Dual mode) You can play two voices simultaneously across the entire range of the keyboard. In this way, you can simulate a melody duet or combine two similar voices to create a thicker sound. Operation 1 Engage Dual mode.

TIP depth 0: no effect depth 20: maximum Reverb Depth TIP Default depth settings are different for each voice. Transposition ­ [TRANSPOSE] This instrument's Transpose function makes it possible to easily match the pitch of the keyboard in semitone intervals to the range of a singer or other instruments. For example, if you set the transposition amount to "5, " playing the C key produces a pitch of F. In this way, you can play a song as though it were in C major, and the BKS1 will automatically transpose it to the key of F. Operation Press one of the F#5-F#6 keys while holding the [BGM] button (see Quick Operation Guide). The current amount of transposition appears on the display while both controls are held. 5 Transposition TERMINOLOGY Transpose: Changing the key signature of a song. On the BKS1, transposing shifts the pitch of the entire keyboard. To transpose the pitch down (in semitone steps) Press one of the F#5-B5 keys while holding the [BGM] button. To transpose the pitch up (in semitone steps) Press one of the C#6-F#6 keys while holding the [BGM] button. To initialize the normal pitch Press the C6 key while holding the [BGM] button. TIP The transposition range: F#5: -6 semitones C6: normal pitch F#6: +6 semitones TIP Notes below and above the C-2 . . . . G8 range of the BKS1 sound one octave higher and lower, respectively. BKS1 Owner's Manual 31 ENGLISH This setting adds a continuous reverb effect to the sound, similar to the acoustic reverberation you would hear in a room. Selecting & Playing Voices Fine Tuning of the Pitch You can fine tune the pitch of the entire instrument. This function is useful when you play the BKS1 along with other instruments or CD music. Operation You can also use the keyboard to set the pitch. To tune up (in about 0. 2Hz steps) Press the [+/YES] button while holding down the [BGM] and [PLAY/STOP] buttons.
