Roland MT-32 Owner's Manual page 9

The MT-32
incorporates
a
128-timbre sound
library
that
lets
you
select
sounds
for
any
of the
non-rhythm
parts.
The sound
source block allows
you
to piay
up
to
thirty-two notes
for the eight
parts
simultaneously, each of which
may
consist of
any
number
of
notes within the upper
limit.
(The exact
voicing
capacity allowed,
however,
varies
with
the timbres
you
select.
See
page
22
for
details.)
The MT-32 works
in
conjunction with
a
MID!
keyboard, sequencer
{a
device that stores musical data for
playback
at
the desired
timing),
and
other instruments that generate
MIDI
data.
The MT-32
applications are
roughly broken
down
into the follow-
ing
two
categories. See
the
corresponding
section for
a
full ex-
planation.
