CVP-609/605 Reference Manual
These rich and luscious Voices are comprised mostly of keyboard instrument sounds
and are especially intended for playing piano and other keyboard parts. They also take
full advantage of Yamaha's advanced sampling technology such as Stereo Sampling,
Sustain Sampling, and Key-off Sampling.
The word "articulation" in music usually refers to the transition or continuity between
notes. This is often reflected in specific performance techniques, such as staccato,
legato and slur. Two types of Voices — Super Articulation (S.Articulation!) Voices and
Super Articulation 2 (S.Articulation2!) Voices — enable you to create these subtle
musical expressions, simply by how you play.
These acoustic instrument sounds were sampled in stereo, to produce a truly
authentic, rich sound — full of atmosphere and ambience.
These Voices capture the dynamic textures and subtle nuances of electric instruments
— thanks to a huge amount of memory and sophisticated programming.
These acoustic instrument sounds also benefit from Yamaha's sophisticated
technology — and feature a finely detailed and natural sound.
Various drum and percussion sounds are assigned to individual keys, letting you play
the sounds from the keyboard. For information about what sound is assigned to each
key, refer to the separate "Data List" (Drum/key Assignment List).
These are high-quality drum sounds taking full advantage of Stereo Sampled sounds
from acoustic instruments.
Various special effect sounds are assigned to individual keys, letting you play the
sounds from the keyboard. For information about what sound is assigned to each key,
refer to the separate "Data List" (Drum/key Assignment List).
These are high-quality percussion or SFX sounds taking full advantage of Stereo
Sampled sounds from acoustic instruments. They give you a broader and more
versatile range of sounds than the normal Drum of SFX Voices.
This authentic organ Voice lets you adjust the various footages and craft your own
original organ sounds. See
