Voice Descriptions
GRANDPIANO 1
Recorded samples from a full concert grand piano. Also
includes three levels of dynamic sampling, sustain samples,
and key-off samples for exceptionally realistic acoustic
grand piano sound. Perfect for classical compositions as
well as any other style that requires acoustic piano.
VARIATION Warm and mellow piano. Good for classical compositions.
GRANDPIANO 2
Spacious and clear piano with bright reverb. Good for popu-
lar music.
VARIATION Bright, spacious piano. Good for popular or rock music.
E.PIANO 1
An electronic piano sound created by FM synthesis.
Extremely “musical” response with varying timbre according
to keyboard dynamics. Good for standard popular music.
VARIATION
A synth-generated type electronic piano sound often heard
in popular music. Used in the DUAL mode it blends well with
an acoustic piano voice.
E.PIANO 2
The sound of an electric piano using hammer-struck metallic
“tines”. Soft tone when played lightly, and an aggressive
tone when played hard.
VARIATION
A slightly different electric piano sound often heard in rock
and popular music.
HARPSICHORD
The definitive instrument for baroque music. Since harpsi-
chord uses plucked strings, there is no touch response.
There is, however, a characteristic additional sound when
the keys are released.
VARIATION
Mixes the same voice an octave higher for a more brilliant
tone.
E. CLAVICHORD
A hammer-struck keyboard instrument that utilizes an elec-
tric pickup that is often heard in funk and soul music. Its tone
is noted for the unique sound produced when the keys are
released.
VARIATION Includes a unique preset effect.
VIBRAPHONE
Vibraphone played with relatively soft mallets. The tone
becomes more metallic the harder you play.
VARIATION Stereo-sampled, spacious, and realistic marimba.
CHURCH ORGAN
This is a typical pipe organ sound (8 feet + 4 feet + 2 feet).
Good for sacred music from the Baroque period.
VARIATION
This is the organ's full coupler sound often associated with
Bach’s “Toccata and Fugue”.
JAZZ ORGAN
The sound of a “tonewheel” type electric organ. Often heard
in jazz and rock idioms.
VARIATION
Uses a rotary speaker effect with a different speed. The vari-
ations speed is faster. If the variation is selected while hold-
ing a chord, the speed of the effect will gradually change.
STRINGS
Stereo-sampled, large-scale strings ensemble with realistic
reverb. Try combining this voice with piano in the DUAL
mode.
VARIATION
Spacious strings ensemble with a slow attack. Try combining
this voice with a piano or electric piano in the DUAL mode.
CHOIR
A big, spacious choir voice. Perfect for creating rich harmo-
nies in slow pieces.
