Polyphony also depends on the effects being used, and
on which synthesis types are being used (HD-1, AL-1,
CX-3 etc.). For more information, see “8–5a: Effect/EXi
Fixed Resource Meter” on page 126.
1–1c: Voice Assign Mode
Voice Assign Mode
[Poly, Mono]
These radio buttons select the basic voice allocation
mode. Depending on which one you select, various
other options will appear, such as
Poly Legato
(
Poly
mode only) and
Unison
(
Mono
mode only).
Poly:
The program will play polyphonically, allowing
you play chords.
Mono:
The program will play monophonically,
producing only one note at a time.
Poly
Poly Legato
[Off, On]
Poly Legato is available when the
Voice Assign Mode
is set to
Poly
.
Legato means to play note so that they are smooth and
connected; the next note is played before the last note
is released. This is the opposite of playing detached.
On (checked):
When you play a legato phrase, only the
first note of that phrase (and notes within 30 msec of
the first note) will use the normal multisample start
point specified by
Start Offset
(2–1c); all subsequent
notes will use the legato start point specified for each
multisample.
Note:
This is a useful way to simulate the percussive
attack of a tonewheel-type organ.
Off (unchecked):
Notes will always use the setting of
the Start Point Offset, regardless of whether you play
legato or detached.
With some Multisamples, Poly Legato may not have
any effect.
Single Trigger
[Off, On]
Single Trigger is available when the
Voice Assign
Mode
is set to
Poly
.
On (checked):
When you play the same note
repeatedly, the previous note will be silenced before
the next note is sounded, so that the two do not
overlap.
Off (unchecked):
When you play the same note
repeatedly, the notes will overlap.
Mono
Mono Legato
[Off, On]
This is available when the
Voice Assign Mode
is set to
Mono
.
Legato means to play note so that they are smooth and
connected; the next note is played before the last note
is released. This is the opposite of playing detached.
When Mono Legato is On, the first note in a legato
phrase will sound normally, and then subsequent
notes will have a smoother sound, for more gentle
transitions between the notes.
The
Mode
parameter, below, switches between two
different Mono Legato effects, each of which achieves
this smoothness in a different way. See the description
of that parameter for more details.
On (checked):
When you play with legato phrasing,
the notes within a legato phrase will sound smoother,
according to the setting of the
Mode
parameter, below.
Off (unchecked):
Legato phrasing will produce the
same sound as detached playing.
Mode
[Normal, Use Legato Offset]
This parameter is available only when
Mono Legato
is
On
.
Normal:
When you play legato, the multisample,
envelopes, and LFOs will not be reset; only the pitch of
the oscillator will change. This setting is particularly
effective for wind instruments and analog synth
sounds.
With this option, the pitch may occasionally be
incorrect, depending on which multisample you
play, and where on the keyboard you play.
Use Legato Offset:
When you play legato, the second
and subsequent notes will use the legato start point
specified for each multisample, rather than the
Start
Offset
(2–1c) setting.
This is effective when used with a multisample for
which you’ve assigned a specific legato offset point.
For example, you might use it to control the attack of a
breathy, slow-attack sax sound. On some
multisamples, this will have no effect.
Envelopes and LFOs will still be reset, as they are with
detached playing.
Priority
[Low, High, Last]
Priority is available when the
Voice Assign Mode
is
set to
Mono
.
This parameter determines what happens when more
than one note is being held down.
Low:
The lowest note will sound. Many vintage,
monophonic analog synths work this way
High:
The highest note will sound.
Last:
The most recently played note will sound.
Max # of Notes
Max # of Notes
[Dynamic, 1…16]
Dynamic
is the default. With this setting, you can play
as many notes as the system allows.
1-16
lets you limit the maximum number of notes
played by the Program. Voices will still be allocated
dynamically, up to this maximum number. You can use
this to:
• Model the voice-leading of vintage synthesizers,
such as the Polysix
• Control the resources required by individual
Programs in Combination and Sequencer modes
Max # of Notes
applies only when the main
Voice
Assign Mode
is set to
Poly
. If
Mono
is selected, this is
grayed out.
