PSR2000.
In the "Directions for use" (manual?)
from the Net I read:
"The (UPPER OCTAVE) button allows the MAIN and LAYER parts to be simultaneously transposed up or down by one octave".
I.e. not only the upper octave will be transposed but the whole right side. Ehhh...
To me it is good I think to be able to play physically one octave up which I transpose down one octave. Therefore my hands will not collide; I am used to two manuals on my old
Ya Electone HS5.
Any comments?

Krix, Instead of Main and Layer, you could play right hand Main voice, and use your left hand on the Left voice. The Left voice can be set to different areas than the Accp.

Thank You very much for your response DonM.
But .....
Could You explain for a dumb Swede how this will solve my collision-problem.

Maybe I don't understand what you want to do. When you shift the octave on the right side, both the Main and the Layer voices are shifted. By using either the Main or the Layer on, say, Piano, you could also set Piano voice to Left, and have different octaves assigned. This would let you play piano with both hands, but different octaves.
Or you could use Full keyboard Mode and have one or two voices across the entire keyboard. Chords will only change when you hit at least 3 notes at the same time.
There are many options, but the fact is you only have one manual.

Kris,
I think you may be able to solve your keyboard collision problem by going into the 'mixing console' and transposing the entire keyboard (Main, Layer, & LEFT) up/down an octave. Then you can go back and reset the 'upper octave' transposition (Main & Layer parts) as needed. This seemed to solve it for me. Hope it works for you.

In addition to the 'transpose' setting I mentioned above (entire keyboard transposition), you can also go to the 'mixing console' page and go to the 'right side' of the 'tune page'.

Here you can raise/lower each SPECIFIC part you choose (Left, Layer, Main) up/down two octaves (total 4 octave range). This should certainly allow you to correct any collision problems you are having. If this doesn't work, I think you better get 'collision insurance coverage'.

"I have got it !
Cost: 1$ per ppq!"
Damn! then we are being ripped off by 9000Pro! it should be less expensive than PSR2000... a lot less.
