Voice Characteristics
The Voice type and its defining characteristics are indi-
cated above the Voice name. There are various Voice char-
acteristics; however, only the following ones are covered
here. For detailed explanations, refer to the Reference
Manual on the website (page 9).
• S.Art (Super Articulation) Voices (page 63)

nected to the FOOT PEDAL [2] jack.
• Organ Flutes Voices (page 49)
Lets you recreate all of the classic organ sounds by adjusting the flute footage levels and the percussive sounds,
just like on conventional organs.
• Drums/SFX Voices
These let you play various drums and percussion instruments or SFX (sound effects) sounds on the keyboard, col-
lected together in what are called Drum/SFX kits. For details, see the “Drum/SFX Kit List” of the Data List on the
website.
