Two options are available for the primary keyboard:
- Long Listing will allow you to browse all of the available keyboard voices in the keyboard modes using the voice select function button (4 on the remotes).
- Preferred voicing will only present the two voices for Split and Full selected above. This simplifies the selection and keeps the sound of your carillon consistent with automatic ringing.
