Voice Mode

The Voice mode features 100 authentic Voices.

Many of these Voices have special preset character-

istics or embellishments. The Voices are divided into

various categories depending on their characteris-

tics or the effects used.

Dual Voices (#41 - #56) feature two Voices mixed

together in a layer for rich ensemble sounds. Split

Voices (#57 - #67) also have two Voices, but rather

than being layered, each is played from a different

range of the keyboard. Sustain Voices (#68 - #721

extend the sound by adding a natural, slow release.

Harmony Voices (#73 - #85) have an additional one-,

two- or three-note harmony added to the original

monophonic Voice. Finally, Echo Voices (#86 - #00)

have an echo effect that adds delayed repeats to the

original Voice.

Included in the Voices are special PERCUSSION

Voices (#40 and #00) that lets you play various drum

and percussion sounds from the keyboard. (Refer to

the Percussion Assign List page 11.)

NOTE

Selecting a Voice

1. 1. Press the VOICE button to select the Voice mode.

2. 2. Use the Numeric Keypad to select the desired

Voice number.

Each Voice is automatically called up with the

most suitable octave range setting. Thus, playing

middle C with one Voice may sound higher or

lower than another Voice at the same key.

3. 3. Play the newly selected Voice. To change to

another Voice, repeat step 2 above.

You can also play rhythm Styles in the Voice mode

by simply pressing the START/STOP button. The

Style last selected from the Style mode will be

played.

About the Harmony Voices

Since Harmony Voices are designed to automati-

cally play two or more notes with the notes you

play on the keyboard, only one note can be played

on the keyboard at a time.

If several notes are

played together, only the last note or highest note

played will be heard.

The type of harmony used depends on the Voice

that is selected. When a Style or Song/Jam Track

is not being played back, the basic key for the

harmony is always C. When a Style is played or

the Stopped Accompaniment function is active, the

harmony changes according to the chord played

with the left hand. When a Song is played back, the

harmony changes according to the chord progres-

sion of the Song or Jam Track.

The PortaTone is polyphonic up to a maximum of 12 notes.

(Depending on the Voice selected, fewer notes may be

available.) This includes not only the Voices played from the

keyboard, but also the notes in a Style pattern, and so on,

Thus, if you play too many notes at one time, some may not

sound and/or others may be cancelled.
