1 Voices Voice Types (Characteristics) The particular type of Voice is indicated at the upper left of the Voice name in the Voice Selection display. The defining characteristics of these Voices and their performance advantages are described below. S.Art! (Super Articulation) Live! Cool! Sweet! Drums Live! Drums SFX Live! SFX Organ Flutes! These Voices provide many benefits with great playability and expressive control in real time. For example, with the Saxophone Voice, if you play a C and then a D in a very legato way, you will hear the note change seamlessly, as though a saxophone player played it in a single breath. Similarly with the Concert Guitar Voice and play the D note strongly, the D note would sound as a "hammer on," without the string being plucked again. Depending on how you play, other effects such as "shaking" or breath noises (for the Trumpet Voice), or finger noises (for the Guitar Voice) are produced. For details on how to best play each S.Art! Voice, call up the information window (pressing the [6 ] (INFO) button in the Voice Selection display).
