1–1: Program Basic
This page contains all of the basic settings for the Program.
Among other things, you can:
• Set up the basic Program type: Single, Double, Drum, or
Double Drum
• Set the Program to play polyphonically or
monophonically
• Create a keyboard split between OSC 1 and OSC 2
• Select the Program’s scale
• Make basic Wave Sequence Settings
1–1a: Program Name and Tempo
Bank [ A...T ]
Program Name [000…127/001…128: Name]
These two read-only parameters show the bank, number, and
name of the current Program.
Tempo (  ) [040.00…300.00, EXT]
This is the tempo used for Wave Sequences, LFOs, effects,
and ARP. For more information, please see “Tempo” on
page 3.

1–1b: Oscillator Mode
Oscillator Mode [Single, Double,
Drums, Double Drums]
HD-1 Single Programs have one oscillator, and Double
Programs have two oscillators. Each oscillator includes a
complete synthesis voice, with velocity-switched
multisamples, dual filters, EGs, LFOs, and so on.
The Drum and Double Drum modes are a special variations
of Single and Double modes, respectively, using Drum Kits
(as created in GLOBAL mode) instead of Multisamples.
Single: The Program will use one oscillator, for a
maximum of 140-note polyphony.
Double: The Program will use two oscillators, for a
maximum of 70-note polyphony.
Drums: The Program will use one oscillator to play a Drum
Kit. In this case the Program will normally have a maximum
of 140-note polyphony.
Double Drums: The Program will use two oscillators to
play two Drum Kits. In this case the Program will normally
have a maximum of 70-note polyphony.
Note: when playing drum kits, it’s often useful to turn on the
Hold parameter. For more information, see “Hold,” on
page 38.
A note about polyphony
Polyphony means the number of notes that you can play at a
time. This number will vary depending on the particular
sound being played, and how that sound is produced.
Generally speaking:
• Double Programs use twice as many voices as Single
Programs.
