Overview of the PLG100-XG

Main Features of the PLG100-XG

Exceptionally high-quality AWM2 tone generation system, with 480 instrument voices and 12
special drum voices. As a full tone generator in a single board, the PLG100-XG features maxi-
mum 32-note polyphony and 16-Part multi-timbral operation.
Full-featured XG tone generator operation for non-XG-compatible instruments (such as the CS6x,
S80, and CS6R), for complete playback compatibility with commercially available XG/GM song
data, using a computer, sequencer, or other MIDI playback device. Since the PLG100-XG is also
compatible with special XG/GM "Minus-one" song data, you can easily mute the melody and play
it yourself (for practice or in performance), or sing along with the XG accompaniment.
The PLG100-XG can also supplement even XG-compatible instruments, such as the MU2000,
providing an additional tone generator with 16 Parts and 32-note polyphony.
The PLG100-XG also lets you conveniently and easily edit all parameters from your computer, by
using the included XGworks lite (Windows) or XG Editor (Macintosh).

Installing the PLG100-XG

To install your PLG100-XG board, refer to the manual that came with the "mother" or host synthe-
sizer/tone generator (such as the CS6x or MU128). When using the CS6x, CS6R, or S80, make sure
to install the board to slot 2.
