Voice Lists
Voice explanation
Simple octave analog synth.
Tenor sax with a unique attack.
Traditional Indian string instrument. Use aftertouch vibrato and pitch bend for microtonal ornaments,
and for timbral variation.
A cornet for easy-listening styles.
Synth bass with emphasized filter.
Mellow, woody viola. Range C2-G6. MW2 (CC13) for tremolo. Vary BC pressure for bowing ... try
tonguing BC for hard bowed attack.
A new type of deep synthesized lead.
Hollow, breathy, new woodwind instrument. Play in tenor and alto ranges. MW2 (CC13) to
Embouchure for alternate bend effect. Aftertouch for growl.
Spanish type acoustic guitar.
A classical woodwind ensemble.
A combination of properties of several different woodwind instruments.
The sound of a plastic reed instrument that is warm at low pressures but thin at higher pressures.
Growl on aftertouch.
Noise produced by MW1. The tone is controlled by MW2 (CC13).
A dark, but lighter bassoon voice than the original VL bassoon. Range is Bb1 (oct down) to Eb5.
A new "violin" instrument that happens to sound like a bright, vocal, "gizmo" motorized synth. Try BC
tonguing for a nice hard bowed attack. MW2 (CC13) controls attack tightness. Range C2-C6.
A steel drum-like percussion sound. MW2 (CC13) changes the timbre.
Voice explanation
This voice benefits from extensive use of aftertouch.
Bright alto sax simulation.
Unique tenor lead tone. MW2 (CC13) controls Embouchure for subtle pitch bend effects.
A "light" tuba simulation.
Artifical slap-bass. Low velocity for thumped notes; high velocity for slapped notes.
A "light" cello simulation.
Funky wah synth for percussive riffs. Very velocity sensitive.
Unique transient attack response when playing intervals over a fifth with fast, staccato articulation ...
gives a nice tongued/bowed attack to the sound. Plays very smoothly with legato articulations and
BC tonguing.
Oriental plucked sound.
A dynamic split with a recorder sound on top and baroque sounding cello on the bottom. Velocity
controls the volume of the cello; breath controls the volume of the recorder. Vibrato for both voices
is on aftertouch.
A harmonica type sound with grass reeds. Use a sustain pedal to switch to the mono mode for an
ethnic sounding woodwind solo.
Imaginary trumpet type instrument with a very strange mute. Try moving MW2 (CC13) for a more
natural vibrato.
A psychedelic fuzzy organ in fifths, with breath control routed to the filter.
A duophonic alto recorder for imitating renaissance recorder duets. Range is F3 to F5.
Sound of a bowed saw. Has the character of Ondes Martenot or Theremin (pioneer electronic
instruments).
Mysterious percussion instrument. Attack is softened with MW1. Squeakiness (embouchure) on
MW2 (CC13). Violent SCRAPE sound with aftertouch.
