61-key Natural Touch Semi Weighted
*1: The key weight of the RH3 keyboard differs in four stages across the pitch range (with low notes
being heavier, and high notes being lighter), delivering a playing feel similar to that of a grand
piano.

Maximum Polyphony
*2*3
HD-1 140 voices
AL-1 80 voices
CX-3 200 voices
STR-1 40 voices
MS-20EX 40 voices
PolysixEX 180 voices
MOD-7 52 voices
SGX-1 100 voices
*4
EP-1 104 voices
*2: In rare cases, when a large number of processor-intensive effects are active simultaneously (for
instance, more than 14 O-Verbs), polyphony may be slightly reduced.
*3: A portion of the multicore processor in KRONOS is devoted to generating voices, and a
separate portion is devoted to generating effects. KRONOS dynamically allocates the voice
processing power between the engines as necessary. The quoted maximum numbers of voices
apply when 100% of the voice processing power is devoted to a single engine.
