Voice

What is Super Articulation! Voice? The SA Voices provide greater playability and expressive control in

real time. For example, with the Saxophone Voice, if you play a C and

then a D in a legato manner, you will hear the note change

seamlessly, as though a saxophone player played it in a single

breath. Similarly with the Concert Guitar Voice, the D note would

sound as a “hammer on”, without the string being plucked again.

Depending on how you play, other effects such as shake or breath

noises (for the Trumpet Voice), or finger noises (for the Guitar Voice)

will be produced.

What is Super Articulation 2! Voice? Mainly for wind instrument Voices, a special technology developed by Yamaha, called AEM has been used. SA2! Sounds feature detailed samples of special expressive techniques used on those specific instruments to bend or slide into notes, to “slur” different notes together, or to add expressive nuances at the end of a note, etc. You can add these articulations by playing legato or staccato, or by jumping in pitch by around an octave.
