Adjusting the dynamics and equalizer

Dynamics

This adjusts how the volume and tone will be changed in
response to how hard the keys are played (velocity) on the
Grandstage.
Pressing the button to turn DYNAMICS on (the button will light)
will activate the knob settings.
Turning the knob to the left will cause the sound to play
softer in response to the strength of the keys played.
This is good for playing highly inflected passages from
pianissimo (very soft) to fortissimo (very loud), such as solo
piano or in band ensembles.
Turning the knob to the right will cause the sound to play
louder in response to the strength of the keys played.
This is good for generally making your sound stand out when
playing backing parts in a band ensemble, or when playing a
solo.
The DYNAMICS effect will not be applied when the knob is
in center position.
For layered and split sounds, the dynamics effect will be applied
to both sounds.
Note:
The effect controlled may differ, depending on the
program. The dynamics will have no effect on programs
that do not change in volume or tone with velocity, such
as organ sounds or some synth sounds.
Note:
Dynamics settings cannot be saved to the favorites.
Dynamics will always be off when turning on the
Grandstage. Turning DYNAMICS on will cause the
effect to be applied, according to the position of the knob.
Note:
The effect will be applied according to the velocity curve
(see page 16) that is set.

Equalizer

The overall audio output characteristics can be adjusted using the
three equalizer faders, LOW, MID and HIGH.
Pressing the button to turn the equalizer on (the button will light)
will activate the slider settings.
The equalizer effect will be applied to all sounds in the same way,
regardless of favorite or program.
Slider Explanation
LOW Low-end shelving type
MID Midrange band type
HIGH High-end shelving type
Note:
Equalizer settings cannot be saved to the favorites.
The equalizer will always be off when turning on the
Grandstage. Turning the equalizer on will cause the
effect to be applied, according to the positions of the
sliders.
Increasing the equalizer settings may cause excessive levels,
which could distort the audio output. Turn the LEVEL knobs
for the KEYBOARDS and ENSEMBLE sections down
when adjusting the equalizer settings.

Transpose and panel lock

Transpose

By changing (transposing) the key in semitones, you can play
using fewer black keys, or play along with other instruments
that may be in different keys, while still using the fingering you
previously memorized.
Setting the transpose feature
While holding down the TRANSPOSE button, press a key from
C3 to B3 to transpose the keyboard down in semitones, or press a
key from C

The TRANSPOSE button will light when the keyboard is
transposed. The display in the KEYBOARDS section will show
the transpose value while the TRANSPOSE button is being held.
Cancelling the transpose feature

and the transpose feature will be cancelled.
Note:

Panel lock

The Grandstage features a Panel Lock function to
prevent the sounds and programs on the panel from
accidentally being changed by hitting the wrong button
or knob while playing.
When this function is turned on, all buttons and knobs
on the panel will be "frozen" and will not respond,
except for the pitch bend wheel, modulation wheel,
