Voice Descriptions
(Table)
Voice	Stereo/Mono	Touch Response	Dynamic Sampling*	Voice Descriptions
GRANDPIANO 1	Stereo	Yes	Yes	Newly-recorded samples from a full concert grand piano. Also includes dynamic sampling, sustain samples, and key-off samples for exceptionally realistic acoustic grand piano sound. Perfect for classical compositions as well as any other style that requires acoustic piano.
GRANDPIANO 2	Stereo	Yes	No	A bright, expansive piano sound which is ideal for rock and popular genres.
E.PIANO 1	Stereo	Yes	Yes	An electronic piano sound created by FM synthesis. Extremely "musical" response with varying timbre according to keyboard dynamics.
E.PIANO 2	Mono	Yes	Yes	The sound of an electric piano using hammer-struck metallic "tines." Soft tone when played lightly, and an aggressive tone when played hard.
HARPSICHORD	Stereo	No	No	The definitive instrument for baroque music. Since harpsichord uses plucked strings, there is no touch response. There is, however, a characteristic additional sound when the keys are released.
VIBRAPHONE	Stereo	Yes	Yes	Vibraphone played with relatively soft mallets. The tone becomes more metallic the harder you play.
CHURCH ORGAN	Stereo	No	No	A soft pipe-organ type voice that is ideal for hymn accompaniment and other styles.
JAZZ ORGAN	Mono	No	No	The sound of a "tonewheel" type electric organ. Often heard in jazz and rock idioms.
STRINGS	Stereo	Yes	No	A large string ensemble. Try combining this voice with piano in the DUAL mode.
CHOIR	Stereo	Yes	No	A big, spacious choir voice. Perfect for creating rich harmonies in slow pieces.
WOOD BASS	Mono	Yes	No	An upright bass played fingerstyle. Ideal for jazz and Latin music.
E.BASS	Mono	Yes	No	Electric bass for a wide range of music styles, jazz, rock, popular, and more.
