Only effective if UNSN-X mode is active.
This parameter controls the “width” of the voice
tuning in Unison mode: the pitch of each voice
will be staggered up and down towards the
selected tuning offset.* Being able to detune
voices in unison mode provides a very “fat”
and rich unison sound.
UNSN-X - OFF -
STACK
2 ··· 16
Sets the number of voices that will be played by
one note from a minimum of 2 to a maximum of
16, or off. If it is set to STACK, all available
voices will be stacked up automatically on the
keys being played.
POLY POLY
The keyboard/MIDI In plays voices poly-
phonically. One voice is used for each note
played (or received). If
UNSN-X is on, the
number of voices used per note is determined
by the setting of the Unison-X parameter.
MONO
This setting allows only one note to sound,
even you’re playing a chord. Each new note that
is played/received while the note is held will
simply change the pitch of the playing voice.
The characteristics of
MONO mode are
determined by the
MIXMVX and ASSIGN
parameters described next.
