Voice Mode
The Voice mode features 100 authentic Voices.
Many of these Voices have special preset character-
istics or embellishments. The Voices are divided into
various categories depending on their characteris-
tics or the effects used.
Dual Voices (#41 - X56) feature two Voices mixed
together in a layer for rich ensemble sounds. Split
Voices (#57 - #67) also have two Voices, but rather
than being layered, each is played from a different
range of the keyboard. Sustain Voices (#66 - #72)
extend the sound by adding a natural, slow release.
Harmony Voices (#73 - #85) have an additional one-,
two- or three-note harmony added to the original
monophonic Voice. Finally, Echo Voices (#86 - #00)
have an echo effect that adds delayed repeats to the
original Voice.
Included in the Voices are special PERCUSSION
Voices (#40 and #00 that lets you play various drum
and percussion sounds from the keyboard. (Refer to
the Percussion Assign list page 11.)
Selecting a Voice
1 .
Press the VOICE button to select the Voice mode.
2 .
Use the Numeric Keypad to select the desired
Voice number.
Each Voice is automatically called up with the
most suitable octave range setting. Thus, playing
middle C with one Voice may sound higher or
lower than another Voice at the same key.
3.
Play the newly selected Voice. To change to
another Voice, repeat step 2 above.
You can also play rhythm Styles in the Voice mode
by simply pressing the START/STOP button. The
Style last selected from the Style mode will be
played.

About the Harmony Voices
Since Harmony Voices are designed to automati-
cally play two or more notes with the notes you
play on the keyboard, only one note can be played
on the keyboard at a time. If several notes are
played together, only the last note or highest note
played will be heard.
The type of harmony used depends on the Voice
that is selected. When a Style or Song/Jam Track
is not being played back, the basic key for the
harmony is always C. When a Style is played or
the Stopped Accompaniment function is active, the
harmony changes according to the chord played
with the left hand. When a Song is played back, the
harmony changes according to the chord progres-
sion of the Song or Jam Track.
NOTE
The PortaTone is polyphonic up to a maximum of 12 notes.
(Depending on the Voice selected, fewer notes may be
available.) This includes not only the Voices played from the
keyboard, but also the notes in a style pattern, and so on.
Thus, if you play too many notes at one time, some may not
sound and/or others may be cancelled.
