Voice Descriptions
GRANDPIANO 1
Recorded samples from a full concert grand piano. Perfect
for classical compositions as well as any other style that
requires acoustic piano.
GRANDPIANO 2
Spacious and clear piano with bright reverb. Good for popu-
lar music.
E.PIANO 1
An electronic piano sound created by FM synthesis. Good
for popular music.
E.PIANO 2
The sound of an electric piano using hammer-struck metallic
“tines”. Soft tone when played lightly, and an aggressive
tone when played hard.
HARPSICHORD 1
The definitive instrument for baroque music. Since harpsi-
chord uses plucked strings, there is no touch response.
There is, however, a characteristic additional sound when
the keys are released.
HARPSICHORD 2
Mixes the same voice an octave higher for a more brilliant
tone.
VIBRAPHONE
Vibraphone played with relatively soft mallets. The tone
becomes more metallic the harder you play.
CHURCH ORGAN 1
This is a typical pipe organ sound (8 feet + 4 feet + 2 feet).
Good for sacred music from the Baroque period.
CHURCH ORGAN 2
This is the organ's full coupler sound often associated with
Beach’s “Toccata and Fugue”.
JAZZ ORGAN
The sound of a “tonewheel” type electric organ. Often heard
in jazz and rock idioms.
STRINGS 1
Stereo-sampled, large-scale strings ensemble with realistic
reverb. Try combining this voice with piano in the DUAL
mode.
STRINGS 2
Spacious strings ensemble with a slow attack. Try combining
this voice with a piano or electric piano in the DUAL mode.
CHOIR
A big, spacious choir voice. Perfect for creating rich harmo-
nies in slow pieces.
GUITAR
Warm and natural-sounding nylon guitar. Enjoy the quiet
ambience of nylon strings.
*1. Dynamic Sampling provides multiple velocity-switched samples to accurately simulate the timbral response of
an acoustic instrument.
*2. Contains a very subtle sample that is produced when the keys are released.
