There are a number of voices which are emulations of the hallmark
keyboard or synth sounds for particular classic songs, such as Van
Halen's "Jump", Edgar Winter Group's "Frankenstein", Emerson Lake
and Palmer's "Welcome Back My Friends (actually the song's title
was "Karn Evil 9 First Impression Part 2"), the Who's "Baba O'Riley"
and "Won't Get Fooled Again", and so on. Again, there simply wasn't
room to include every emulation for every synth sound that ever
appeared on a hit recording. This is where the Performance mode
comes in handy - any voice can be altered in Performance mode (for
example, changing the filter cutoff or resonance, or the attack time or
release) thus creating, in effect, as many variations on the existing
Vintage Keys voices as the user so desires.
TO LOAD THE VOICES:
FROM THE DOWNLOADED ZIP FILE TO USB DEVICE (JUMP
DRIVE or FLASH DRIVE):
