sonic depth and expressive control.
Upward compatible with voices from the
“classic” FM synthesizers and tone genera-
tors, such as the Yamaha DX and TX series.
Formant Sequences — “Fseqs” — produce
other-worldly vocal phrases, rhythm loops,
and more.

real-time sonic control as well as easy
programming.
A huge selection of 1408 preset voices,
