8 Voice Edit The EL-700/500 Electone has a Voice Edit feature that allows you to create your own voices. The Voice Edit uses sophisticated sound shaping tools that make it possible to craft just about any kind of sound- from authentic recreations of acoustic instruments to wild electronic voices and special effects. The following section will introduce you to the basics of voice editing by taking you step by step through a specific editing example. As you follow the steps, you may find many of the terms and parameter names to be unfamiliar. Once you go through the editing steps, however, we suggest that you read through the Voice Editing Basics section (page 116) to get a firmer understanding of the principles behind voice editing. 1 Editing a Voice 1) To select a voice and its Operator: 1 First, select the voice you want to edit from the Voice Menu.

Editing a Voice
1) To select a voice and its Operator:
1
First, select the voice you want to edit from the Voice Menu. (Each
volume on the other voice sections should be set to MIN.)
The EL-700/500 Electone has a Voice Edit feature that allows you to create your own voices.
The Voice
Edit uses sophisticated sound shaping tools that make it possible to craft just about any kind of sound—
from authentic recreations of acoustic instruments to wild electronic voices and special effects.
The following section will introduce you to the basics of voice editing by taking you step by step through a
specific editing example.
As you follow the steps, you may find many of the terms and parameter names to
be unfamiliar.
Once you go through the editing steps, however, we suggest that you read through the Voice
Editing Basics section (page 116) to get a firmer understanding of the principles behind voice editing.
NOTE:
Only the AWM Voice Menu voices can
be edited with the Voice Edit controls.
The Flute voices on the EL-700 have
their own editing controls and cannot be
edited here.
2
While holding down the VOICE EDIT button in the DISPLAY
SELECT section, press the Voice button corresponding to the voice
you wish to edit.
For this example, select Piano1 from the UPPER
KEYBOARD VOICE 1 section.
