PRESET DEFINITION 4
STEREO VOICE
The Emax II plays back stereo samples, with no loss of polyphony. Stereo is implemented
using the primary and secondary voices and selecting Stereo Voice mode.
Stereo Voice mode uses all
primary
voice parameters for
both
primary and secondary
layers. With Stereo Voice off, the primary and secondary voice parameters are totally
independent and no sharing of functions occurs.
In order for a key to
become
stereo, it must meet all of the following criteria:
■
The primary and secondary voices must be assigned to the same keyboard range.
■
Both primary and secondary voices must have the same original key.
■
Both primary and secondary voices must have the same sample rate.
The above rules must not be violated after a stereo voice has been created or unpredict-
able (and undesirable) side effects may result (wrong pitches, etc.).
PRESET DEFINITION
Stereo Voice
■
Stereo Voice mode
may be used to "stack"
voices without loss of
polyphony, since the
primary and secon-
dary voices need not
be the same instru-
ment.
