s POLY/MONO This determines whether the voice in each Layer is played monophonically (only one note at a time) or polyphonically (up to 32 notes at a time). Generally, Polyphonic mode is selected to generate multiple sounds at one time. There are cases, however,where it is more effective to select Monophonic mode, such as when using a bass sound, brass sound, or an analog synthesizer sound.

However, the number of notes may be reduced or truncated if you use voices which consist of two elements and/or play a rather complicated song which uses too many notes. s Using the Multi Play Mode • Multi Play Mode is specifically aimed at playing CS1x as a tone generator using the external device such as sequencer. Consequently, the changes made in Multi Play Mode are temporary and cannot be stored. • The Arpeggiator function is not available in Multi Play Mode. It can only be applied to the Performances in Performance Mode. 39
