8 Voice Edit This Electone has a Voice Edit feature that allows you to create your own Voices. We suggest that you read through the Voice Structure below at first to get a firmer understanding of the Voices. Then go through the editing steps, reading Editing a Voice on page 130 for editing of an AWM Voice, or page 135 for editing of a VA Voice.

Refer also to "AWM Voices and VA Voices" (page 34). AWM Voice structure AWM Voices consist of up to four recorded samples of a real instrument. Each waveform, referred to as an "Element," can be edited, by changing the level (volume), filter settings, and so on. A single Voice contains four boxes (AWM1 - 8 AWM4) in which the Elements are put. If a Voice consists of less than three Elements, some boxes are empty. For example, Strings 1 consists of two Elements (as shown). Voice Edit Strings 1 Element 1 Element 2 AWM1 AWM2 AWM3 AWM4 You can add Elements from other Voices - Brass, for example - if a box (AWM3 and/or AWM4) is empty. This allows you to create your own original ensemble sounds. In the Voice Edit function, you can edit not only each Element, but also assemble some Elements from other Voices.
