GUIDED TOUR #2:
SPECIFYING THE “CURRENT VOICE”
BACKGROUND
Emax II has two modules dedicated exclusively to processing voices within a preset:
DIGITAL PROCESSING and DYNAMIC PROCESSING. Each voice stored in a bank can
be processed independently (or groups of voices may be processed simultaneously if
desired). Therefore, we need a way to specify the Current Voice, which is the individual
voice (or collection of individual voices) to be processed.
The concept of the Current Voice is important. To process one voice out of a preset,
assign the current voice to be that one voice, and process it. To process more than one
voice at a time, specify a group of voices to be the current voice and process all voices
simultaneously.
This section covers how to identify which keyboard keys belong to which voice, and how
to specify which voices or voices make up the current voice. For a short form version of
this tour, see DYNAMIC PROCESSING 00 and DIGITAL PROCESSING 0.
Begin this tour by loading Arco Strings (Piano & Strings) into the bank. Also, read the
section FUNCTION, ENTER DATA as the ENTER button will be used frequently during
this and most subsequent tours.
IDENTIFYING WHICH KEYBOARD KEYS BELONG TO WHICH VOICE
1. Once the Arco Strings (Piano & Strings) bank is loaded, the display should show 00
as the current preset. Select preset #10 - Demo Strings, then activate the Dynamic
Processing module. Its LED will light after a second. If a current voice has not been
previously selected (it shouldn’t have if you just loaded in the disk), the display will say:
Lo:A-1
Select Lo Voice
