Playing a Voice
Based on an AWM2 synthesis engine, this synthesizer offers various kinds of preset Voices (256
Normal Voices and 8 Drum Voices). You can also create your original Voices and store them into the
instrument’s internal memory (INT) or an external Memory Card (EXT). The internal and external
memory can each contain up to 128 Normal Voices and 2 Drum Voices. You can freely select and play
Voices from both groups of memories, as explained in the following.
