[F2] Voice Play Plug-in Bank
From this display you can select the particular bank
on the Plug-in board, and determine whether you
will be using a Plug-in voice or a "Board" voice.
Simply put, the difference between the two types of
voices is this:
• Board voices are unprocessed, unaltered voices of
the Plug-in board — the "raw material" for Plug-
in voices.
• Plug-in voices are edited Board voices — voices
that have been specially programmed and
processed for optimum use with the S90.
Settings (with Plug-in Board installed to Slot 1)
PLG1USR (User Plug-in voice), PLGPRE1
(Preset Plug-in voice), 032/000... (Indicates
the Bank Select MSB/LSB of the Board voice.
These values differ depending on the installed
Plug-in board)
n This display is available only when the Plug-in board
is installed to the S90 and the Plug-in voice is
selected.
[F4] Voice Play Portamento
From this display you can select monophonic or
polyphonic playback and set the Portamento
parameters (Voice Edit Common [F1]
#7, 8, 10, 11).
[F5] Voice Play EG (Envelope Generator)
This display contains the basic EG settings, both
volume and filter, for the voice, as well as the filter's
cutoff frequency and resonance settings. The
settings made here are applied as offsets to the AEG
and FEG settings in the Edit mode (pages 65, 66).
The full names of the available parameters are

About Plug-in voices and Board voices
The voices of a Plug-in Board installed to the S90
can be divided into two types: Board voices and
Plug-in voices. Board voices are unprocessed,
unaltered voices of the Plug-in board — the "raw
material" used for the Plug-in voices. Plug-in voices,
on the other hand, are edited Board voices — voices
that have been specially programmed and processed
for optimum use with the S90.
Included among the Board voices is a special set of
voices — called Board Custom voices — which can
be edited by a computer connected to the S90, using
special editing software included with the Plug-in
board. (See page 73.)
