Overview of Voices/Waves
Each Voice can consist of up to four Elements. Each Element itself is a high-quality waveform or instrument sound.
There are two Voice types: Normal Voices and Drum Voices. Normal Voices are mainly pitched instrument sounds
that can be played over the range of the keyboard. Drum Voices are mainly percussion/drum sounds that are
assigned to individual notes on the keyboard. The Drum Voices also include special sound effects.
In general, a Voice (containing up to four Elements) can be played across the entire range of the keyboard. However,
this can be changed; the actual key range for the Voice is determined by the Note Limit parameters (page 73).
n A total of 480 (XG) and 128 (Preset) Normal Voices plus 20 Drum Voices are available as presets. You can create and store your
own original Voices; the S03 has User memory space for 128 User Normal Voices and two User Drum Voices.
