Why does my Yamaha Musical Instrument sound cut off?
If not all the voices seem to sound on your Yamaha Musical Instrument, or the sound seems to be cut off, remember that the instrument is polyphonic up to a maximum of 64 notes. If you're using Dual voice or Split voice along with style or song playback, some notes/sounds may be omitted.
Why does the sound of the voice change from note to note on my Yamaha Musical Instrument?
This is normal. The AWM tone generation method uses multiple recordings (samples) of an instrument across the range of the Yamaha Musical Instrument's keyboard.
