Naturally, you can play the voice yourself from the keyboard, but you can also

Here, we’ll select a lush pad to fill out the sound. Call up
the “CHOIR & PAD” group.

Now, you can play two different voices together in a rich
sounding layer — the MAIN voice you selected in the
previous section, plus the new LAYER voice you’ve
selected here.
And that’s just the beginning. Check out these other voice-related features:
• Create your own original voices — quickly and easily — by changing the settings of existing voices (page 87).
• Set up your favorite panel settings — including voices, styles, and more — and call them up whenever you need
them (page 84).
