CREATING SOUNDS

KEY ASSIGN

IIPOLYl

Mode

This mode is used for normal polyphonic playing. The

EX-8000’s eight voices are assigned sequentially as

notes are played. If you play more than eight notes, then

the most recent notes will cancel out the earliest notes

still sounding. In this mode, sounds using long release

times will create an effect of “overlapping” notes, which

will create a spacious sound.

POLY2

Mode

This is most useful for certain instrumental sounds, and

for sounds using polyphonic portamento effects. If a one

note passage is being played, the first synth voice (out

of eight) is used continuously. If two notes are played,

the first two voices are used continuously, and so forth.

WNISON

1,2

Mode

This mode assigns all eight voices to each key depres-

sion, following a “last note played” priority system. Be-

cause all eight voices are automatically detuned when

this mode is selected, this produces a very fat, rich

sound. This mode is useful when the EX-8000 is used

for soloing or playing bass parts.

UNISON 1 causes the envelope to retrigger every time a

new key is pressed, regardless of other keys being held.

UNISON 2 wilt result in single trigger operation (only the

first key pressed will activate the envelope).

Synth Voices Used

When one note is played, the eight voices are used sequentially.

Synth Voices Used

When one note is played, the first voice is always used. When

two or more notes are played, other voices also are used.

Synth Voices Used

All voices are used for each note played
