Mixing Part. In this case, the sound of the Song/Pattern you created may change unexpectedly if you edit or delete the Voice used for the Song/Pattern Mixing in the Voice mode. Mixing Voices are provided to prevent these accidental sound changes. Memory structure of Mixing A Mixing program is provided for each Song or Pattern. Selecting a different Song/Pattern calls up a different Mixing program. A Mixing Voice provides 16 memories for each Mixing program (Song or Pattern). Selecting a different Song/Pattern calls up the different Mixing Voice as well as the Mixing program. If you wish to use a Mixing Voice of a certain Song/Pattern for another Song/Pattern, execute the Copy operation (page 123) in the Mixing Voice Job. Note that up to 256 Mixing Voices can be stored for all Songs and Patterns. If the memory for Mixing Voices is full, delete the Mixing Voices you don't need by executing the Delete job of the Mixing Voice job. Maximum Polyphony Maximum polyphony refers to the highest number of notes that can be sounded simultaneously from the internal tone generator of the instrument. The maximum polyphony of this synthesizer is 64. When the internal tone generator block receives a number of notes exceeding the maximum polyphony, previously played notes are cut off. Keep in mind this may be especially noticeable with Voices not having decay. Furthermore, the maximum polyphony applies to the number of Voice Elements used, not the number of Voices. When Normal Voices that include up to eight Elements are used, the maximum number of simultaneous notes may be less than 64.
