You cannot have the LEFT Voice hold (I assume play when you release the left chord), however you can have either or both of the 2 LOWER voices hold (same results ... just by using the LOWER VOICE, rather than the LEFT voice). Simply pressing "HOLD" won't get you the results you are looking for I believe.

To achieve this, proceed as follows:-

* Press STYLE MODE to access the STYLE MODE screen.
* Press F1 and F2 and turn them both on [Lower Hold = On] (or just 1 if you are interested in having only 1 of the left/lower voices hold).
* Change F5 to MODE 3 (Hold STOP) which means hold notes/chord even when Arranger is/has been stopped.
* Press the HOLD button below screen (LED on) - as you would when playing a regular style to hold chords when keyboard is released.
* Make sure MUTE (F4) is OFF, otherwise if On, LOWER SOUNDS are mutted.

Now try it .. then save CUSTOM SETUP so you don't repeat this each time you turn on your unit ...or save to a specific registration if needed only here and there...

Not that when you change the style, the LOWER VOICES might change as they are determined by the style ... to prevent this press F9 (VOICE LOCK) to lock/freeze the Lower voices so that as you change from style to style, these voices remain unchanged.

Thanks,

AJ

PS: Make sure the LOWER volume slidder is up!
