1 Voices – Playing the Keyboard with Various Sounds –
This instrument features a wide variety of exceptionally realistic instrumental Voices, including piano, organ,
guitar, strings, brass, wind instruments and more. Any of these Voices can be played on the Upper
Keyboard, Lower Keyboard and Pedalboard.
Up to two Voices (Upper Keyboard Voice and Lead Voice) can be played together in a layer on the Upper
Keyboard, while each of the Lower Keyboard and Pedalboard uses a single Voice. You can select a Voice
for each of these four keyboard parts, by using the buttons on the upper left of the panel.
1 Voice category buttons,
[USER] button.................. For selecting a Voice (page 35).
2 [ON/OFF] button
...............For turning each part on or off (page 35).
3 VOLUME buttons..............For adjusting the volume for each part.
Depending on the selected Voice, the Voice is played monophonically (single note only) even if two or more
keys are pressed simultaneously. This is ideal for lead or solo instruments such as trumpet and saxophone.
You can see this mono/poly setting and other current settings for each Voice part on the “Voice Effect”
display, called up by pressing the [VOICE EFFECT] button (page 42).
NOTE
