Voice Management
Voice limits
Section titled “Voice limits”Voices are limited at three levels:
- Engine: 512 voices in total.
- Part: the voice limit button on the part card, from 4 to 512.
- Group: the Polyphony button in GROUP SETTINGS, available in Poly mode. PART means the group has no limit of its own; otherwise choose 1 to 64 voices.
When a limit is reached, the oldest voice is stolen. Released voices are stolen before held ones.
Exclusive groups
Section titled “Exclusive groups”Exclusive Group in GROUP SETTINGS puts groups in a choke group. When a group starts a voice, voices in other groups with the same exclusive group number are quickly faded out. Choose New Group to create a new number.
Group settings
Section titled “Group settings”The rest of the GROUP SETTINGS card applies to all selected groups:
- Volume and Pan
- Tuning: -24 to +24 semitones.
- PB: pitch bend range down and up, 0 to 48 keys. Zones use this unless they set their own.
The group ROUTING pane also has:
- Vel: velocity sensitivity for the group.
- 2xOS: runs the group and its zones oversampled. On by default.
