An overview of the edit pages

In order to do detailed editing, you'll need to access the
edit pages in the display.
The preceding section "Easy Program editing" on
page 27 explained how to use the Prog P0: Play page to
do simple editing. For more detailed editing, you'll use
the P1 and following edit pages.

Basic oscillator settings

Here you can specify the type of program, select the
basic waveform (multisample or drum kit), and specify
whether it will play polyphonically or monophonically
(poly/mono).
Program type setting (single, double,
drum kit)
Here you can specify the program type.
Broadly speaking the program type will be either "a
program that uses a multisample" or "a program that
uses a drum kit" (see "Multisamples and Drum Kits"
on page 33).
This choice is made by the Prog P1: Basic/Controllers–
Program Basic "Oscillator Mode" setting, which
specifies which type the oscillators will use. Up to two
can be used simultaneously for each type.
• Multisample: Single, Double
• Drum kit: Drums, Double Drums
Single (single program) uses one oscillator, and
Double (double program) uses two oscillators.
Drums (drum program) is similar to a single program,
but uses a drum kit (created in Global mode) instead of
a multisample. Double Drums (double drum
program) uses two drum kits. By using an ambience‐
type kit as the second drum kit, you can give a wider
sense of space to the sound.
Polyphony
Polyphony is the number of notes that can be played
simultaneously, such as in a chord. The polyphony
depends on the program type.
Program type Polyphony
Single
Double
Drums
Double Drums
Note:
• Double Programs and Double Drums use twice as
many voices as Single Programs.
• Stereo Multisamples use twice as many voices as
Mono Multisamples.
• If using velocity crossfade switching, the
multisample will use twice as many voices as usual.
