Performing Multiple Parts

(Performance Mode)

A group of sixteen parts to which fifteen patches and one rhythm set are assigned (fixed at Part 10) is collectively referred to as a Performance.

Patch

In a performance, you can assign each patch and rhythm set to a part, then combine these parts to enjoy an ensemble performance. One of the sixteen parts (Part 10) is reserved for the rhythm set, with patches assigned to the remaining fifteen parts.

In other words, using performances allows you to control sixteen separate sounds with one JV-1010.

A sound generator of this type which can control multiple sounds using one device is referred to as a multitimbral sound generator.

In the relationship between performances and parts, the performance is like an orchestra, parts are the performers, and patches and the rhythm set are the instruments.

Let’s try selecting some parts and sounds, then play the multiple parts together as a performance.

As one example, select one of the sixteen parts, PART 2, then select the patch No.008 Gtr Strings in GUITAR/BASS (the GUITAR/BASS group).
