Combination mode
PRG: Portamento will be applied as specified by the
program settings.
Off: Portamento will be off, even if the original
program settings specified for it to be on.
001...127: Portamento will be applied with the
portamento time you specify here, even if it is turned
off by the program settings.
EXi programs will ignore this setting if the
Instrument Type does not have portamento
capability.
AL-1 and STR-1: Portamento is supported
CX-3: Portamento is not supported
If the Status (0–1b, 2–1a) is set to INT, CC#05
(portamento time) and CC#65 (portamento switch)
messages will be received and will control and
change these settings. (If the setting is PRG, CC#05
portamento time will not be received.) These
messages will be received on the MIDI channel
specified for each timbre by MIDI Channel (2–1a).
Max # of Notes
Dynamic is the default. With this setting, you can play
as many notes as the system allows.
1-16 lets you limit the maximum number of notes
played by the Timbre. Voices will still be allocated
dynamically, up to this maximum number. You can use
this to:
• Model the voice-leading of vintage synthesizers,
such as the Polysix
• Control the resources required by the Timbre
Max # of Notes applies only when the main Voice
Assign Mode is set to Poly. If Mono is selected, this is
grayed out.
This setting does not limit the Unison Number of
Voices parameter. For instance, if Max # of Notes is set
to 6, and Unison Number of Voices is set to 3, you can
play up to 6 notes, each with 3 Unison voices.
If the Program is set to Double, the Max # of Notes
applies equally to both Oscillators. For instance, if Max
# of Notes is set to 4, you can play up to 4 notes on
each OSC.
Chord
Chord
PRG uses the Program's setting. If the Program is set
to Off, then the Chord SW has no effect.
Off disables the Chord function.
Bsc (Basic) re-creates the chord mode of the original
Polysix. Each time you play a new chord, it will cut off
the previous chord. This option ignores the Voice
Assign settings.
Adv (Advanced) uses the Program's Voice Assign
settings, as if each note in the chord was a transposed
set of oscillators layered within the Program.
Poly, Poly Legato, Single Trigger, Mono, Mono Legato,
Legato Offset, Mono Priority, and Mono and Poly
Unison all apply.
You can achieve the same effect as Bsc, above, by
setting Chord to Advanced, Voice Assign to Mono,
Priority to Last Note, and Legato to Off.

For more information, see "Using Chord mode" on
page 49 of the Operation Guide.
Source Pad
Chord mode uses the chords assigned to the Pads. This
selects which of the Pads to use. You can also select
chords using the Pads themselves; for more
information, see "Using Chord mode" on page 49 of
the Operation Guide.
PRG uses the notes of the chord stored in the Timbre's
Program, instead of any of the chords in the Combi.
This makes it easy to use Chord mode for sound-
specific effects, such as octaves, stacked fifths, and so
on. When set to PRG, the Timbre will not change
chords in response to the pads.
Timbres 02...16
Here you can make voice assignment settings for
timbres 2 through 16. The settings are the same as for
timbre 1. See "Timbre 01".
▼ 2–2: Page Menu Commands
The number before each command shows its ENTER +
number-key shortcut. For more information on these
shortcuts, see "ENTER + 0-9: shortcuts for menu
commands" on page 138.
• 0: Write Combination. For more information, see
"Write Combination" on page 405.
• 1: Exclusive Solo. For more information, see
"Exclusive Solo" on page 138.
