Voice List - Yamaha PSR-520 Product Manual

Voice List

The PSR-520 is provided with the Panel Voices (voice numbers 01~151)
and GM Voices (voice numbers 01~136). GM Voices are used for the accom-
paniment. Refer to the GM Voice List on page 85 for the accompaniment
track voice editing.
Polyphony
The PSR-520 can play up to 32 individual notes at the same time (i.e. it
has a maximum "polyphony" of 32). This number includes all voices used:
dual, split, auto accompaniment, song, and multi pads. If the maximum po-
lyphony of the PSR-520 is exceeded, the excess notes will be truncated (they
will not sound).
Another feature affecting polyphony is the fact that some PSR-520 voices
actually use two voices at once, as shown in the voice list below. The effec-
tive maximum polyphony of the PSR-520 is correspondingly reduced when
these voices are used.
The voice list includes the MIDI
program numbers and MIDI bank
select numbers (Panel Voice List
only) that control each voice when
the PSR-520 is played from an
external MIDI device.
Panel voice number 113/GM voice
number 110 (Bagpipe) uses only
one voice above A#2.
