27QQTG0701 About the display About the display A large-size display, easy to operate with excellent readability, is used for displaying various information such as the names of the selected sounds and rhythms etc. and when setting the functions. Let’s take a look. The display illustrations shown in this User’s Manual are examples for the sake of clarification; the actual displays on your in stru- ment may differ from the illustrations. Normal display (HOME PAGE) This is the kind of information you see on the dis- play during a normal performance. Volume balance At the bottom half of the normal display, the vol- ume balance of each part is represented in a fader illustration and by a number (0 to 127). You can use the balance buttons below the display to adjust the volumes. APC: AUTO PLAY CHORD RT: RIGHT METR: METRONOME When setting the volume balance, press the upper button to increase the volume and the lower button to decrease it. Hold a button down to scroll the volume quickly. Pressing the OTHER PARTS/TR button will dis- play the auto accompaniment part setting screen. DRM: DRUMS ACP: ACCOMP MUTE To mute a part, press both the corresponding upper and lower buttons at the same time. The volume display for a muted part is shown as “MUTE.” Pressing either balance button for a muted part will can- cel the mute function. OTHER PARTS/TR By the pressing the OTHER PARTS/TR button, the screen sequentially switches to the respec- tive volume balance screens of the play part, auto accompaniment part, playback part (1 to 8), and playback part (9 to 16).
