The RY30's 96 voices are composed of 174 separate waves which are
available to you in the voice edit mode. In addition to assigning any one or two of
these waveforms to a voice and adjusting their level, the RY30 lets you inde-
pendently control panning, pitch, decay, digital filtering, velocity sensitivity, pitch
envelope generator level and rate, and more parameters for each wave. For full
details on all voice editing functions refer to the "VOICE EDIT MODE" begin-
ning on page 79 of the REFERENCE section.
NOTE: If in the process of experimenting with the various voice edit parameters
you lose track of the original settings, the "LOAD PRESET VOICES" job
described on page 76 of the REFERENCE section lets you re-load all of the
preset voices in their original form. The "VOICE COPY" function described
on page 91 lets you re-load a single preset voice.
