Hi Bassgolf,
Here are some supplementary information:
Setting the split points is not in the "Utility" display, but in "[Function] > Style Setting/Split Point/Chord Fingering > Tab > Split Point". (See page 62 in the Tyros5 Owner's Manual.)
You can call up the Split Point display very quickly by pressing "Direct Access" and then "Sync Start" (in Style Control section). In order for the set/changed split points to be saved in the so-called "System Setup", it is important to close the split point display by pressing the "EXIT" button. (So do not leave this display open in the background!) Then the setting should be available again after a restart.
But note: When saving Registrations, automatically also the split points are saved (STYLE and LEFT split points with the "STYLE" tick, the Right3 split point with the "Voice" tick). By calling up a Registration that contains different split points, so your preferred split point settings would be changed again.
The only way to protect the split point settings permanently from unwanted changes is to use the "Parameters Lock" function:
- Go to the page "[FUNCTION] > Utility > Config1 > 3 Parameter Lock".
- Tick "Split Point". If you also want to lock the currently set Chord Fingering, you also tick "Fingering".
- In addition, "Master EQ" should always be ticked.
- Press the "EXIT" button to close the Lock Display parameter. The changes are automatically stored in the "System Setup".
- Note: Manually you can change the split points (or fingering) of course at any time, the checkmarks in the Parameter Lock can always remain set!
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Chris
