Voice description
GrandPiano1 ● ● ● ● ●
This voice has been sampled from a full con-
cert grand piano. It features five-stage dynamic
sampling, tone changes with damper pedal
operation, and a subtle voicing at the release
of the keys. It simulates the ultimate acoustic
piano sound. It also reproduces a string reso-
nance that is typical of acoustic pianos. This
voice is suitable not only for classical music but
for piano music of any genre.
GrandPiano2 ● ●
×××
A bright, expansive piano sound which is ideal
for rock and popular genres.
E.Piano1 ● ● ●
××
An electronic piano sound created by FM syn-
thesis. Extremely “musical” response with vary-
ing timbre according to keyboard dynamics.
E.Piano2
×
● ● ●
×
The sound of an electric piano using hammer-
struck metallic “tines.” Soft tone when played
lightly, and an aggressive tone when played hard.
SynthPiano
×
●
×××
This voice simulates the electric piano sound
produced by synthesizers in popular music. It
also goes well with the acoustic piano sound.
WoodBass ● ● ● ●
×
This voice simulates the sound of an upright
bass played with the fingers, and is suitable for
jazz and Latin music. Stereo sampling has
improved the acoustic feel.
ElectricBass
×
● ●
××
Electric bass for a wide range of music styles,
jazz, rock, popular, and more.
Bass&Cymbal ● ● ●
××
WoodBass sound and stereo-sampled cymbal
sound are layered. This voice is very effective
for a jazz walking bass.
Harpsichord8' ●
××
●
×
The harpsichord is often used for Baroque
music. The volume level is always consistent
regardless of how you play. The instrument
generates a peculiar voice when you release
the keys. “8’” means that it produces the same
octave sound as the keys.
Harpsichord8'+4' ●
××
●
×
This voice combines the 8’ and 4’ harpsichord
sounds. “4’” means that it produces a sound
one octave higher than the actual keys.
ElectricClavichord
×
●
×
●
×
This is the voice of a keyboard that produces
sound by striking the strings with magnetic
pickups. This funky sound is popular in black
contemporary music. Because of its unique
structure, the instrument produces a peculiar
sound when you release the keys.
Vibraphone ● ● ●
××
This voice simulates a vibraphone played with a soft mallet.
The harder you play, the more metallic it sounds. Use the
“VibraphonePedalMode” parameter in the “OTHER SET-
TING” menu to select whether the sound sustains while
you hold down the keys, or the sound sustains only when
you press the pedal. An actual vibraphone has a rotor
inside the resonance tube, which rotates via the motor to
create the vibrato effect. Pressing the left pedal applies this
effect; pressing the pedal again turns the effect off.
