D1	Piano &	A Dual voice combining grand piano and strings – perfect for slow,
	Strings	orchestral piano music.

D#1	E. Piano 1	An electronic piano sound created by FM synthesis.
		Exceptional musical response with varying timbre according to key-
		board dynamics. Good for standard popular music.

E1	E. Piano 2	The sound of an electric piano using hammer-struck metallic tines. Soft
		tone when played lightly, and an aggressive tone when played hard.

F1	Church	This is a typical pipe organ sound (8 feet + 4 feet + 2 feet).
	Organ	Good for sacred music from the Baroque period.

F#1	Jazz Organ	The sound of a tonewheel type electric organ. Often heard in jazz and
		rock idioms.

G1	Strings	Stereo-sampled, large-scale strings ensemble with realistic reverb. Try
		combining this voice with piano in the DUAL.

G#1	Harpsichord	The deﬁnitive instrument for baroque music. Since harpsichord uses
		plucked strings, there is no touch response.

		released.

A1	Vibraphone	Vibraphone played with relatively soft mallets. The tone becomes more
		metallic the harder you play.

2. Adjust the volume.
