Appendix

PSR-540 Voices
The PSR-540 actually includes two voice sets: the "panel" voices and percussion kits, and the XG voices. The panel
voices include 215 "pitched" voices and 12 drum kits, while the XG voice set includes 480 voices.
The panel voices are specially recorded and programmed voices exclusive to the PSR-540 and other PortaTone
instruments. The XG voices conform to Yamaha's XG format; they also conform to the GM (General MIDI) standard. This
allows you to accurately play back any GM- or XG-compatible song data directly on the PSR-540 itself, without having to
change voices or make special settings. It also allows you to record songs for other GM- or XG-compatible instruments,
and have them play back on those instruments as intended.

Maximum Polyphony
The PSR-540 has 32-note maximum polyphony. Auto Accompaniment uses a number of the available notes, so when
Auto Accompaniment is used the total number of notes that can be played on the keyboard is correspondingly reduced.
The same applies to the Voice R2, Voice L, Multi Pad, and Song functions. When the maximum polyphony is exceeded,
notes are played using last-note priority.
