U10 Overview and Features
This section covers the performance modes of the
MU10 and describes in detail Voice- and Effect-
related controls and features.
The MU10 has 32-note polyphony and is 16-Part
multitimbral, which means it can play up to 16
different instrument Parts (one Part per each of the
16 MIDI channels), each Part having its own
Voice. Up to 16 different Voices can be sounded
simultaneously.
The MU10 features both XG and TG300B
performance modes. Normally the MU10 plays in
XG mode. However, since it automatically
recognizes which mode to select based on
incoming MIDI data, you can easily change the
mode by MIDI System Exclusive messages that
you program in sequencer data, at the head of your
composition.
●
TG300B Mode
In TG300B mode the MU10 will play multitimbral
music data created for TG300B-compatible tone
generators. TG300B mode also provides compat-
ibility with the GM System Level 1 format.
In TG300B mode the MU10 can:
• Play up to 16 Parts.
• Choose from 579 Normal Voices and 10
Drum Voices.
■
Voices and Elements
An MU10 Voice can be made up of one or two
elements (i.e., sounds), depending on the complex-
ity of the Voice. Many Voices are made up of only
one element. Two-element Voices are made up of
two one-element Voices, and may be configured in
a variety of ways.
The number of elements in use determines the
maximum number of simultaneous notes (po-
lyphony) which the MU10 can play at any given
time, depending on the amount of incoming MIDI
Note data. For details about the number of
elements used in each Voice, see the XG/TG300B
Normal Voice List on page 42.
■
Normal Voices and Drum Voices
The MU10 has two types of Voices—Normal
Voices and Drum Voices. (In this Owner’s Manual,
in general the word Voice refers to a Normal
Voice.)
The distinction between a Normal Voice and a
Drum Voice is as follows:
• A Normal Voice is simply a pitched Voice
which can be played on a musical scale from
low to high, such as a piano or trumpet. The
MU10 has 676 Normal Voices.
• A Drum Voice is a complete set of drum and
other percussion sounds, each sound having a
fixed pitch. Each sound is assigned to a specific
MIDI Note number (which also corresponds to
a key on a MIDI keyboard). The MU10 has 21
Drum Voices.
Please note the following:
• Turning on the power of the MU10 will
automatically initialize all MU10 settings,
or parameter values.
• Since the MU10 requires about half a
second to change modes when it receives a
mode change message, be sure to insert at
least one blank measure at the top in order
to allow enough time for the mode to
change before your actual music data
begins.
●
XG Mode
In XG mode the MU10 will play XG-compatible
multitimbral data, as well as multitimbral data
created for the GM System Level 1 format.
In XG mode the MU10 can:
• Play up to 16 Parts.
• Choose from 480 Normal Voices and 11
Drum Voices.
