Voice name
DX Woody
With its rich, woody body, the DX Woody voice delivers a mellower electric-piano sound.
DX FTine
Recreating a classic voice from the DX electric piano, the DX FTine shows off the characteristic
attack sound of this instrument.
DX 7 II
With the body portion of the sound changing in response to how you play, the DX 7 II will allow you
to experience the wonderful richness of expression for which the DX electric piano was renowned.
DX Mellow
The DX Mellow voice is gentle and well suited to ballads; however, powerful playing will still pro-
duce a much harder sound.
DX Crisp
Although relatively full-bodied, the DX Crisp remains highly present within an ensemble thanks to its
unique attack sound.
NOTE
Piano types marked with an asterisk (*) can have their tuning adjusted by setting the TunCrv parameter (Tuning Curve)
to "stretch" (page 44).
