In general, Yamahas don't offer the glitch capabilities of Casio keyboards, but as far as I can tell, their two speakers are amplified semi-separately - I assume this is done purely for signal strength, as the keyboard only normally plays in mono. The distortion bends I added to this keyboard - a bend I frequently use to make oscillator tones using the amplifier and surrounding components as the oscillator - sound very loudly in the right speaker, and just a little bit in the left. I wired separate 1/4" outputs for each speaker to take advantage of this situation. Unfortunately, I don't have a mixer with me, so you can't hear the result in this recording:
