About the maximum polyphony
The DR-880 has a maximum polyphony of
32 notes (voices). Some bass sounds use
two voices when you play one note, and if
you're using this type of bass sound, the
maximum polyphony will be less than 32
notes.
For details on the number of voices used by
each instrument, refer to p. 153.
