Description
Here you can define a voice limit for the Sound, that is the maximum number of
voices (notes) the Sampler can play simultaneously. Once this polyphony has
been reached, triggering any additional note will kill the "oldest" note still play-
ing (i.e. the note that was triggered first). The default value is 8, the minimum 1
and the maximum 32 voices. You can also set this to Legato: in that case the
polyphony is set to 1 and the Sampler performs a continuous pitch transition be-
tween consecutive notes. Note that the actual polyphony is also influenced by
the global polyphony of the Group (see
(SRC)).
You can choose one of the eight Choke Groups here or leave this option set to
Off. If you assign more than one Sound to the same Choke Group, they will can-
cel each other out. This is a behavior you can find in vintage drum machines
(typically used to "choke" the open hi-hat with the closed one), but also in
monophonic synthesizers that are only capable of playing one note at a time.
