154 Chapter 14 EVOC 20 PolySynth
Synthesis Parameters
The EVOC 20 PolySynth is equipped with a polyphonic synthesizer. It is capable of
accepting MIDI note input. The parameters of the Synthesis section are described
below.
Mode Buttons
These buttons determine the number of voices used by the EVOC 20 PolySynth:
 When Poly is selected, the maximum number of voices is set via the numeric field
alongside the Poly button.
Note: Increasing the number of voices also increases processor overhead.
 When Mono or Legato is selected, the EVOC 20 PolySynth is monophonic, and uses
only one voice.
 In Legato mode, Glide is only active on tied notes. Envelopes are not retriggered
when tied notes are played (single trigger).
 In Mono mode, Glide is always active and the envelopes are retriggered by every
note played (multi trigger).
 The Unison button enables or disables Unison mode. In this mode, each
EVOC 20 PolySynth voice is doubled, which will cut polyphony in half (to a maximum
of 8 voices) as indicated by the numeric Voices field. The doubled voices are detuned
by the amount defined with the Analog parameter.
 In Unison-Mono mode (both the Unison and Mono or Legato buttons are active), up
to 16 voices can be stacked and played monophonically. In this mode, the Voices field
displays the number of stacked voices that sound at the same time.
Warning: Stacking voices in Unison-Mono mode will increase the EVOC 20 PolySynth’s
output volume. To avoid overloading the instrument channel output, adjust the
EVOC 20 PolySynth’s Level slider accordingly.
