Yamaha Portatone PSR-160 Owner's Manual page 25

Harmony voices (#059 - #068) automatically add a one-, two- or three-note har-
mony to the original voice. Split voices (#069 - #073) feature two separate
voices, each playable from opposite sections of the keyboard — the lower voice
playable up to B2 and the upper voice from C3 (middle C). Sustain voices (#074
- #078) have a special sustained release for playing slower or legato passages.
Echo voices (#079 - #088) provide an echo effect that adds delayed repeats to the
original voice. Dual voices (#089 - #097) blend two voices together for a rich,
layered sound.
There's even a dynamic set of DJ voices (#098 - #099) that provides a wealth of
exciting sounds for playing many of today's popular music styles. The PSR-160
also features special Drum Kit voices — #088 (with Echo) and #100 — that let
you play a variety of drum and percussion sounds from the keyboard. (Refer to
the Drum Kit Voice Chart below.) Icons representing each sound are printed
above the keyboard, conveniently indicating which sounds are played from which
keys.

About the Harmony voices
• Since Harmony voices are
designed to automatically play
two or more notes with the notes
you play on the keyboard, only
one note can be played on the
keyboard at a time. If several
notes are played together, only
the last note or highest note
played will be used for the har-
mony effect.
