This status is referred to as a "single timbre" tone generator. This mode lets you play a Performance (in which multiple Voices or Parts are combined-in a layer, or in other configurations) using the keyboard. Keep in mind that Song data on an external sequencer consisting of multiple MIDI channels will not play back properly in this mode. If you are using an external MIDI sequencer or computer to play the instrument, make sure to use the Song mode or Pattern mode. Reference Voice mode Performance mode Song mode Pattern mode Mixing mode Master mode Remote mode Utility mode Quick setup File mode Performance A program in which multiple Voices (Parts) are combined in a layer, or in other configurations is referred to as a "Performance." Each Performance can contain up to four different Parts (Voices). Each Performance can be created by editing parameters unique to each Part and parameters common to all Parts in Performance mode (page 55). Performance Memory contents Using iOS Applications Appendix MIDI Two User Banks are provided. Each Bank contains 128 Performances, for a total of 256 User Performances. Tone Generator block in the Song mode/Pattern mode Part structure of the tone generator block in the Song mode/Pattern mode In these modes, multiple Parts are provided and different Voices and different melodies or phrases can be played back for each Part. A MIDI tone generator that simultaneously receives over multiple MIDI channels and plays multiple instrument Parts is referred to as a "multi-timbral" tone generator. The settings for the multi-timbral tone generator are collectively referred to as a "Mixing." You can use the Mixing when playing the MOXF6/MOXF8 sounds by using an external MIDI sequencer as well as using the sequencer block of the instrument. In this case, you should use the Mixing of the Song or Pattern that does not contain any sequence data. About Mixing A program in which multiple Voices are assigned to Parts for multi-timbral play in the Song and Pattern modes is referred to as a "Mixing." Each Mixing can contain up to 16 parts. Each Mixing can be created by editing parameters unique to each Part and parameters common to all Parts in the Mixing mode (page 114). Also, one Mixing has up to sixteen memory locations for saving Normal Voices. These Voices which are saved are called Mixing Voices. Normally, the Voice stored in the Voice mode is assigned to each MOXF6/MOXF8 Reference Manual 7
