Voice
The P-250 features 45 preset voices and an XG voice set (equivalent to a single voice). You can combine
any of these voices in Dual or Split mode and play them simultaneously on the keyboard. The diagram
below illustrates voices in Dual and Split modes.
You can set the effects and various controls for each voice. These settings are automatically recalled
when you select a voice. In Dual or Split mode, you can set the parameters for each combination of
voices. For example, the same voice used in different voice combinations can have different parameter
settings for each combination.
For a list of parameters, see page 58. For information on editing the parameters, see “Editing” on
page 61 and “Voice Edit” on page 65.
