		[Calculating the Number of Voices Being Used]
		The number of notes, or “voices,” that the XV-2020 can sound simultaneously depends on
		the number of Tones in the Patches you’re using and the number of keys being pressed.
		For example, if you play one note using a Patch that consists of only one Tone, you’ll use
		up one voice of polyphony. XV-2020 Tones may use two Waveforms. If a Patch’s Tone uses
		two Waveforms, the number of voices it requires is doubled. If two keys are pressed with
		a Patch that has four Tones, and each Tone uses two Waveforms, a total of sixteen voices
		are used.
		This number is obtained by performing the following calculation. Count the number of
		Tones with two Waveforms and multiply this number by 2. Add the number of Tones that
		use one Waveform. Multiply this total by the number of keys pressed.
		The XV-2020 can play up to 64 Tones simultaneously. When you’re using the XV-2020
		multitimbrally, keep this in mind, and adjust your Voice Reserve settings so that each Part
		is guaranteed at least the minimum number of voices it requires.
OFFSET	You can determine how a Part plays a sound by setting it to modify the sound’s programmed cutoff frequen-
	cy, Resonance and TVF and TVA Envelope attack and release time settings.
OFFSET COF	-64–+63	Raises or lowers the TVF cutoff frequency settings for each of the Tones in the Part’s
(Part Cutoff Offset)		sound.
OFFSET RES	-64–+63	Raises or lowers the TVF Resonance settings for each of the Tones in the Part’s sound.
(Part Resonance Offset)
OFFSET ATK	-64–+63	Raises or lowers the TVF/TVA attack time (T1) settings for each of the Tones in the Part’s
(Part Attack Time Offset)		sound.
OFFSET DCY	-64–+63	Raises or lowers the TVF/TVA attack time (T2 and T3) settings for each of the Tones in the
(Part Decay Time Offset)		Part’s sound.
OFFSET REL	-64–+63	Raises or lowers the TVF/TVA release time (T4) settings for each of the Tones in the Part’s
(Part Release Time Offset)		sound.
FADE LOWER#	0–127	Determines what happens to the Part’s level when a note that’s lower than its specified
(Part Keyboard Fade Width		keyboard range is played. Higher settings result in a more gradual change in volume. If
Lower)		you don’t want the Part to sound at all when a note below the keyboard range is played,
		set this parameter to 0.
LOWER#	C-1–UPPER	Specifies the lowest note that causes the Part to play its sound.
(Part Keyboard Range
Lower)
UPPER#	LOWER–G9	Specifies the highest note that causes the Part to play its sound.
(Part Keyboard Range		* It is not possible to set Lower to a value greater than the Upper value, or Upper to a value
Upper)		less than the Lower value.
FADE UPPER#	0–127	Determines what happens to the Part’s level when a note that’s higher than its specified
(Part Keyboard Fade Width		keyboard range is played. Higher settings result in a more gradual change in volume. If
Upper)		you don’t want the Part to sound at all when a note above the keyboard range is played,
		set this parameter to 0.
